I currently use Microsoft Office Pro. For Office users who have a great many
files saved in applications such as Word, it would be helpful to be able to
choose the visual presentation of those files in the directory for ease of
locating them. I like to be very organized, but now I am only able to
organize my files by using large numbers of subfolders. However, that can
become cumbersome and it would be much more convenient to simply change the
font, color, and layout of the files (rather than simply appearing in
alphabetical order) in each folder. So if I were working on a large project
and presentation that required multiple files to be saved, I could chose to
have the files in the directory for research articles show up in green, the
priliminary project summaries appear blue, my final report in a different
font in purple, etc. In this folder I would then group all the green research
files together, the blue summaries together, etc, so that they are quickly
and easily found. This would greatly enhance organization and ease of
locating files in any folder or subfolder. So when I clicked on "open," I
would not have to navigate through seventeen different levels of folders and
subfolders in "my documents" and then have to still read through thirty
different file titles because they are all the same font and color. The files
would have already been organized visually by changing the color, font, and
grouping of the titles.
