Hi there, am currently investigating if we can move from Groove to Collanos (so we can also use it on OS X machines). Everything looks fine, however, all file names in all spaces on all computers have a blue color (like they are all hyperlinks). Is there a way to change this? The demo on your website shows files which have a (normal) black color?!

Happy to hear from you, thanks in advance!

This has historic reasons. The blue color was initially used for Collanos link objects, to make them look just like typical hyperlinks. Double-clicking on link objects opens a separate application (a web browser).  Following the same idea or principle (i.e. that an external application will open), we decided to also use blue color for file objects.

Maybe these color coding choices should be reconsidered. Please note, there is another small inconsistency: Real hyper links can be just be single-clicked on (no double-click needed). Should we possibly change this? Only for files objects or also for link objects? Maybe we could offer customizable color. Any opinions?
