WatchDirs and colour coded files

[aguirRe]

Using the new 6.52 and WatchDirs=3, it appears as if the colour coded files are not updated properly when the TC window gets refreshed in the background.

I have a specific colour (purple) for empty (size 0) files and when running a batch file that slowly and sequentially creates new files and writes data to them, I expected the files to appear in the TC window first purple (empty) and then standard black, one by one.

This didn't happen; the files appeared purple and stayed that way until I put TC in the foreground. Is this intended?

Hmm, interesting. In the meanwhile until this gets fixed, you can use this script.

Yes, this is by design. Why? On downloads, the file would be updated every second, which could cause quite a delay with some color filters. Maybe I will add it as an option.

Thanks for the info, it's certainly not a big problem for me.
