Applescript: PathLabeller
Thanks for the groovy script. Have you put it through its paces yet--chosen every label? I get weird probs when I run it:
Applescript: PathLabeller
Heh, I figured out why I get the error message: I need to replace "1.Work" in your script with the name of the topmost folder on my own Mac, which, for my purposes, will be "Documents".

Glad you like it!

If you don't name the top most folder correctly it will try to keep labelling up to the root level of your drive and reach and error when it can't get any further. Sorry I wasn't more clear that you needed to change it! The script is pretty bare (no error trapping, etc) so one could add dialogs and handlers to deal with user "mistakes" if they wanted to make it more accessible to others. For example, the script will die if you enter anything other than 0 through 7. With coersion and "try" handlers you could get it to kick back to the user for a valid label entry. You could even get it to accept text (e.g "Red") instead of numbers to be more intuitive, which gets me to your next problem... Still have no idea why the colors/labels are shuffled around, though.That isn't an error. For whatever reason the order you see the labels listed in contextual menus does not match their numerical order! There is probably a "legacy" reason for the integer value while the order in the menu is more pleasing to the eye, or something like that. |
