Color labels distorsion in column view?

My color labels on folders look strangely distorted when in column view: there are two white halfmoons breaking the color at the beginning and end of the label. Has anyone experienced the same or know how to resolve it?

The color highlighting corresponding to the applied label is drawn with half-circles at each end of the entry, but on my system they do not appear anomalous in any way.

Color Label

I'm wondering if any of you have used Color Label to, well, color any of your folders and/or files? In all the years it's been available I've never used it and often wondered why I would want to.
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts. Maybe I'm missing something.

I use labels to tag things like potentially dangerous items, demo or older versions, third party installs, original installation files, and general highlighting. One of the handier uses I found is to tag all of the original support files of an application, then if anything new is added or updated, I can easily see which files are affected. Along the same lines is the highlight, which I use for things like archived downloads, so I can identify those that I haven't archived yet, or preference items that I mess with on occasion so that I can pick them out of the list quickly. Smart folders can do a lot of the same things, but I find labels in a column view stand out pretty well.

Label colors are more vibrant when you switch to column view

Mayby I am too picky but I noticed that *label colors are more vibrant when you switch to column view*. I guess label colors should always look the same on matter what view you are on.

ThisisGrey,
You can also by choose a different color profile in System Preferences...>Displays>Color>Display Profile: Uncheck "Show profiles for this display only," and experiment with a different profile. I personally had the most success with using the "Calibrate..." selection and creating a user calibrated profile for my screen.

Applying star rating/color label to "Current Pick" in Stack View mode

Is it possible to apply a star rating/color label to the "Current Pick" in Stack View Mode? Thanks.

is there a way of applying both the five-star rating, AND the green color label at the same time, with one keyboard shortcut, or otherwise?
If you need to do this in exactly one action, then I don't think there is a way to do this. Of course, if you want to accomplish this in two actions, you can select all the 5 star images, and then apply the Green color label to them all in one step, but that isn't what you asked for.
Is there any way to make my five-star rated photos more visually prominent in the grid view?
Not that I know of
ANother thought is to create a smart collection of your 5 star images, and then you can use the smart collection to view the 5-star images (none of the other images will appear)

Grid View: Flags, Rating, Color Label read only? / Mark Images Read only?

Hi
I'd like to see the flag-status, rating and color label assigned to an image as cell icons. But if I show them as Cell Icons, I am also able to change them, which happens to me quite often accidentally when I click into the frame of a image to change selections.
Is it possible to show these markers for each image without being able to change them in the frame? I would be quite happy being able to change them from the tool bar, but still being able to see them on the single image.
Related to this:
Is it somehow possible to mark images as read only, so that further changes (development, metadata etc.) can be made impossible? This would be nice for older images, which have been processed completely and should stay that way, inhibiting accidental changes to images. Sometimes it is difficult to even notice when one accidentally changes metadata on an image.
Thanks for your thoughts

Yes it's a bug. I see it on Mac platform.

Apparent bug in 3.1's handling of color labels

This ties is with [Applescipt manipulating color label|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2645193&tstart=15] posted earlier today.
If you set the color label of an image to have no color label via the pulldown in the metadata tab of the inspector (select the first circle which will display the text *No Label* when selected) the images color label is set to the string "No Label". Confirm this by looking at the browser in column view, the third column in the default view is Label. You'll see that for colors you'll get a circle of the color and the string name of the color. You'll also notice that other images that do not have a color label simply have --
The problem arises if you select *No Label* in the search field or Filter HUD. The images labeled as *No Label* rather then the empty string will not show up in the search.
The *No Label* string can be cleared out by setting the images label to No Label via the +Command 0+ keystroke.
The Applescript command to set color labels also exhibits this behavior.

Working with events can sometimes be interesting. I concentrated my efforts more on fixing the issue than trying to determine if this is a bug or not. I modified your code slightly to filter events based on click type and I think it is working the way you intended. Let me know it is not quite right.

How to change sorting behavior in column view in Lion Finder?

I love the ability to sort in column view in OS X 10.7. However, when I switch to column view and let sort by label, the Finder displays a strange behavior: The files are grouped by label, but in the order of lee to more. It does not seem possible to display according to the label order set in the Finder prefs.
This is somewhat irritating. Is there a way to change this can make it consistent to the label order?
The label order in the Finder was set to "Prio A", then "Prio B" and so forth.

If I set it to "Arrange by", I get them sorted by file name, irrespective of the color.
If I change that in the View Options, I get them sorted according to label, but not in the label order of the Finder prefs.

Can Bridge not read / see the Finder's color labels...?

I have got a whole stack of images files, in a few nested folders on my Mac, and they have all been painstakingly individually color-labelled in the Finder with various colors.
I now want to manage these files and perform various actions on them, based on their colors, and so I have opened up the folders in Bridge, but Bridge is not showing the colors of the files.
I know Bridge has its own color-labels set-up, but this does not work in conjunction with the Finder, so even if I went through and re-labelled them all in Bridge, the changes would not be reflected in the Finder -- and I do still need to view the color-labels outside of Bridge / in the Finder, because I won't ONLY be using these files from within Bridge.
So, simply put, is there no way I can get Bridge to read and display the color-label information as shown in the Finder?

So, simply put, is there no way I can get Bridge to read and display the
color-label information as shown in the Finder?
No, you can't see those finder labels in Bridge.
There is however a reasonable simply workaround I would think.
In Finder create several new folders, for each label one folder.
Open another Finder window and put this in column mode. Use view options in
Finder and add the column 'label' to the window. Now press on the name label
at top of this column and your labels are selected per color above each
other.
Drag and drop them manual to the new created folders. And you can easily
repeat this for the other nested folders.
You can also add the new color label folders temporally to the favorite
column left at the finder window so drag and drop is even more easier.
After this in Bridge point to each folder and assign a suitable bridge label
color to it. Now you can work with Bridge color labels
Also in Bridge you have options to rate with stars and add keywords so
filtering has dozens of ways to retrieve your grouped files at once using
the filter panel.

Applescipt manipulating color label

In manipulating image version's color label,
set color label to no color label,
It results in browser's label column,"no label" not a nomally "--"
Is there way to set label to "--" ?
-- some operations to determine color label here reseult to vResult
-- inside tell image versions
if vResult is equal to "" then
set color label to purple
else
set color label to no color label
end if

Looks like the color label is just a string that Aperture interprets to actually turn on the color. So for example an image marked Orange has an orange dot and the string "Orange" next to it.
So as a long shot you can try try setting the color label in the script to Null (or the applescript equivalent) or even just "".
On the images you've set the color label to "No Label" with the script, do they still show up in searches for images with no label? If they do then does it really matter what they look like in column view?

Has anyone else been unable to click [open] a document folder while in the column view in finder?

Since I have downloaded Mavericks, I am unable to open any document folder in the column view in finder. When i go to any other view such as cover flow or list, they open. But when it is in the column view, I am unable to click any folder - or any document for that matter. Can anyone help or atleast tell me I'm not the only one?
Mike

okay i figured it out. for some reason i had to go to the settings menu and click arrange by name and it automaticaly fixed it. it was weird all of the names were gray, and the color tags were to the left of the folder titles. i hope this helps if any of you had that problem too.

When I sort by date added in Column View in Finder, how can I make the most recent files appear at the top of the list?(Mavericks)

In 10.8, when I sorted Finder by date added or date created in column view, the most recent files would appear at the top of the list. Currently, this happens as it should in every single view mode EXCEPT column view (which is pretty much the only view I ever use). Currently, I have a folder with over 2000 files in it that date back to 2011, so now I have to scroll for like ten minutes just te get to files that were most recently added. Who in their right mind would want to sort by last modified with the oldest result listed FIRST? Ridiculous. I can't figure this out. Any help?

Thanks for the reply leroydouglas! Unfurtunately this doesn't cause the column to be ordered correctly either. After selecting this option, the files seem to be ordered by label, and the most recently added file is somewhere in the middle of the list. I'd like it to be at the top, and have other files/folders descend in retrochronological order by their add date.
Any other input from the community would be greatly appreciated, even if it's just confirming that this is/is not expected behavior. I'd be super bummed to find out that this IS expected behavior, as it's really counterintuitive and extremely inconvenient.
Thanks again!

Problems importing photos with a color label.

Hello:
I'm trying to import photos and assign a color label at the same time. My idea is to know what pics are just imported and put they into "status 0" of my workflow, that is, the pic is just imported and need to be accepted/rejected, then be classified, then made basic corrections, etc, etc. I'm going to change color labels to go from red to green status... a tipical workflow.
OK, this is what I did:
Import pics:
* I select the directory and create/assign a new metadata preset.
* In this metadata preset I set author/creator and some other IPTC fields.
* Also I put the word "red" in Label field.
* Do the import...
What I can see then:
The photos are imported and the red label is visible. You can see the red label in the grid view (at every photo's bottom) and also, at the bottom toolbar, you can see that the red label is checked. If you click at the small label at the photo's bottom you can see the small menu with the red label checked.
OK, it seems that the color label is imported but...
In the filmstring, if you filter to see only the red labeled pics... nothing is selected !! You have to unassign and assign again the red label and this time you can filter by color label.
What is happening ? Does Lightroom read the color label from two different fields from the metadata ? Is something not synched during the import process ?
Regards,
Javier.

Sorry if I couldn't explain correctly. English is not my main language...
I know you can assign names to the existing colors label and create different sets. I just create my own set.
What I'm refering to is to the Label field that is part of the basic IPTC data into a metadata preset. I'm not sure if it's the same field that is used to assign color labels.
What I did was to create a metadata preset, assign the word "red" as the value of the IPTC Label field and then apply this preset into an import. All the pics were imported with the red label set, so yes, it is possible to do the import and set the color label. The problem is that you can't use the filters that are into the filmstring view. So there is some mismatch here: the red color is shown at the bottom of the pics imported, but the filmstring filters can't "see" that the pics have this color label assigned.

Finder does not show all colors from selected color Labels

Since a view days finder does not show all Color Label colors. When I select either yellow or green it is selected, but it does not show in the file list with details, I can see it in icon and 3 pane view, but not in the detail list view.
does anybody know why or how? Or what plist files I might need to delete to get this reset?

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your labels work in that User acct in list view? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
Let us know and we'll troubleshoot this further.
