Hello,
is there a way to set a default color for folder from folder-color ?
Let’s say I want all my folders be red by default from now on, how can I say it to folder-color ?
( yes I’m kind of tired of blue folders everywhere, lol )
You wouldn’t use folder color for that. For Papirus, you have https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-folders. For Moka/Pocillo, just read https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/4wthlw/change_mokas_folder_colors/
Oh nice !
papirus-folder is a script / command-line utility, it would be nice to have its feature brought into the budgie-settings gui, sort of. Being able to chose the dominant / accentuation color for folders + applets accordingly.

Indeed, it would 
hopefully it is implemented
Oh damn, papirus-folder acts system-wide, now all the sessions using papirus have another color by default.
How make it change per session instead of system wide ?
Not sure 
Maybe open an issue, until then change the color back to ‘blue’
…because now there is a mess also in my folder colors, changes are not applied…
Weird.
Some workaround → https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-folders/issues/15#issuecomment-565820918
→ don’t install Papirus icons in default system place /usr/share/icons but only in /root/.icons
→ and install Papirus icons in each personal folder in ~/.icons
That way you’ll be able to
⋅ set a color for root user system wide using
sudo -H papirus-folders -v -C color -t Papirus -u
⋅ set a different color in each user session ( where papirus icons are installed ) using
papirus-folders -v -C color -t Papirus -u
It seems in 18.04 /usr/share/icons always override ~/.icons

Hi, and older version allowed it, I’m not sure which one exactly, I think:
