Separate files from folders

[iMäcen]

Is there a way to make the listing of files and folders to separate files from folders, just like in Windows? For example, all folders at the top and the files after the folders?

And is there a way to make this for all folders I list?

Maybe a workflow in automator can do this?

Just click the "kind" column header and it will sort it by file kind.... click the size it will sort by size... you get the drift

That helps a bit, but if you have a file with the extensions between "a" and "fn" it will still be listed above the folders.

If you are really determined to have this. Select the folders and give them a colour label, then from the task bar select view->arrange by->label

 

Now to make it happen automatically; I think you'd need to write a script for adding a colour label (use gui scripting if you haven't written script before), then in folder actions you'd need to create one that activates whenever a new folder is added to your drive which would then execute your script.

Thanks. A bit anoying with the colors, and the order is from z to a when I order by label. I guess I can live with the order by kind.
