I use all the available grid colors (green, yellow, gray), and I think having access to more would be great. They don't even have to be predefined as the current ones are (Seen/Unseen, Mark/Unmark, Wanted/Unwanted). The colors could ideally be assigned if you right-click on a movie in the grid.
To be clear, I realize that you can change the existing colors. My suggestion is to add more colors, the use of which could be customizable.
Thanks for all your work, Alessio! |

Ciao, Alessio!
Yes, my suggestion is that more colors be made available in the grid. One way to implement it might be via the right-click menu. If you right-click a movie now, you get the usual options (Seen/Unseen, etc.). Maybe you could simply add another option that says something like "Assign color..." which would then bring up a color palette so the user could choose what color to assign.
I think the main benefit of this would be that the user could use color-coding for options other than what are already used. |

Well, I think too many colors are not really usefull. white unseen, blue seen, red unseen and lent, yellow seen and lent, ... I hate such plethoric faced tables. But what would be good is having something like a bunch of checkboxes that will colorize the lines in table grid. So no filtering but marking... |
