 | Gmail has released a new lab on 8th April 2010 on 'Nested Labels'. I was in need of something like this as I had around 150 labels and it was increasing almost everyday. But the way Gmail lab provided, it was not a good way to me. You can read there original post here New in Labs: Nested Labels and Message Sneak Peek Gmail has used slashes (/) to make a label the children of another label. Problem is I had several labels/tags with slash already. Gmail could have designed the lab in different way (I mean, without using slash). |
Not only that. When I rearranged some of the labels as child, it did not update my filters immediately (where I used those labels) and also did not update filters in my multiple inbox.
It also has problem with not showing parent label. If by mistake your parent label is marked as 'hidden' the children labels are not shown correctly.
Here Parent label 'Goal' is hidden.
You see the output now:
Finally, I wanted a feature like this but somehow this Lab could not satisfy me. :(
another DElightful "feature" (conflict)
ReplyDeletenesting requires back slash, whereas multiple inbox "label:" spec can only act on slash
Is there an IQ limit at google much like there is for California Highway Patrol? (not kidding about CHP)
You arrogant prick. Rather changing your retarded ways of creating labels, you want Google and millions of people to change the way they create labels to fit your needs. I have a better idea for you. You should just go back to using pencil and papers. That way you won't have to deal with 1st world problems while being in 3rd world. Mmmkay?
