It is not a "really need" functionality, but it would be appreciated, if compressed Windows Folders and files would be displayed in different color.
Does it already exist and I'm not aware of it?
Thanks,
Marko

Go to the Settings dialog, select Color page, press "Define colors by file types" button. In the new dialog press Add, then Define - you will get a dialog very similar to the Find files dialog. There go to Advanced tab, select Attributes checkbox and Compressed checkbox; press Save and enter any suitable name. Then you will see this name in the Specify file type dialog: select it and press OK. You will get a Choose color dialog - select any that you wish and press OK. That's all, now compressed files/folders will be shown with the color you specified.
For encrypted files/folders you can do the same, but select not Compressed, but Encrypted checkbox when defining the file template.

Thanks guys, I was just going to post a question about this!
I'll include some keywords for future searches about this: NTFS compression.
Edit: I found a bug in this, can any of you reproduce it? Include an attribute in a search definition and then save it. Then remove it (unclick the "Attributes" box to grey all attributes out) and re-save it with either the same name or a new - the attributes box is still checked!
The only way I could remove it from the search definition was to start a completely new search and save it.

Confirmed - If I just deactivate the Attributes checkbox then TC doesn't save the change, but if I select another attribute and then deactivate the Attributes checkbox it works alright.I found a bug in this

Thanks for confirming! I saw in your signature that you're a beta tester - do you have a special way of reporting bugs or should I mail it in / re-post a bug report on the forum?petermad wrote:2cyberzipConfirmed - If I just deactivate the Attributes checkbox then TC doesn't save the change, but if I select another attribute and then deactivate the Attributes checkbox it works alright.I found a bug in this

Sorry, I was off for a while.
As I thougt, TC still fulfils all my needs.
I was near the solution before my post, but it didn't work for me. You got me going and I realised, that I shouldn't deselect all other attribute types, while selecting commpressed type. Now its working perfectly.
Thanks to all of you,
Marko
