Category Sets
A1
  • move Layout settings to the bottom
  • add sets
    • 'Default' - user set
      with all default categories
    • 'Unused' - built-in 'system' set
      for categories without source
  • rework Category formatting
    - Not-assigned - text normal, bg grayish
    - Newly assigned - text bold, bg white
    - Assigned - text normal, bg white
    - Assigned (not all files in selection) - text italic, bg white
A2
  • add options to 'Group by assignment' (like in DxO)
    1st group - assigned cats
    2nd group - not-assigned cats
A3
  • add options to show parent
    A3-1 - parent affects grouping
    A3-2 - parent does not affect grouping

Category Sets Settings
B1
  • add options to show parent
B2
  • rework dialog into two lists structure
    to make it easier to understand/operate
  • add functionality to show/hide sets
    another option - do it via Category Sets ... menu
