IDEA: Change folder icon colour when folder empty
pavanusq:
hi SKWIRE
i downloaded MTIcon, but how to assign Folder size or how the Folder changes Blue or any colour?
i am using Windows 7.
i am looking for a program which detects empty folder and change it's colour or give some identification, i don't want delete empty Folders.
Thanks for your Help
pavanusq:
OK I have been using this great util for some time now and can see a possible improvement in the original idea
The icons would be user defined, though I have created 5 icons set, 1 for each percentage. Each set has several size icons. They are based on the MS icons of Windows 7, though I am not sure if copyright apples as they are modifed from the original. Basically they are a standard yellow folder, that fills with red from the bottom. The greater teh content of the folder the more red is shown
Empty folder - Green
<100MB Yellow (default)
100MB-<1GB 25% Red
1GB-<10GB 50% Red
10GB-<50GB 60% Red
50GB-<100GB 80% Red
>100GB 100% Red

Hi Magician62
how can you assign these Size, do we need any special app?

I never added the folder size stuff to MT Icon; it only sets the icon if a folder is empty.

The current version of MT Icon does not delete empty folders.

I found a few situations it doesn't seem to work, but its been a while IIRC one was Network mapped drives and NAS. When I get a moment I will see if i can test the ways I used it and list the places it had issues (Win7-64)
I created icons based on the windows ones that show different red/yellow ratios , but the code was not modified ( not clever enough yet :) )
If anyone wants the icon packs I can probably make them available, though I am not sure how copyright stands on them. I got the base image from a program that colourised folders. Though on making the image a negative it looked like the basic MS icon.
