Feature Request] Colour Collections

Warlach

Much like with the tags, for a visual point it would be really helpful I think as my library grows and grows to be able to change the colour of the folder icon for each collection.

I searched and saw a request for being able to replace the default folder icon with emoji which would have a similar effect and I'd like but even just nine colours in the Assign Color function from tags would be greatly appreciated.

Same here, I'm doing a work around now by "tagging" my collections by including the color in the title, such as "RED - My first collection." However, this method isn't as effective as using actual colors. For instance, while writing my dissertation with Zotero, I've organized my chapters into collections to sort articles and notes accordingly. However, some articles are relevant to multiple chapters. Ideally, I'd assign colors to my chapters (collections), and then color-code paragraphs within the text to match the chapter they belong to. This way, I'd instantly recognize that all paragraphs colored red are part of chapter one, blue paragraphs are for chapter two, and so on. It would be incredibly helpful.

I agree wholeheartedly: color choice for various collections is really becoming a necessity. I color code all my research folders, except it is not possible in Zotero.
