Color Chain Mac OS
Why you should use Mac OS 7.6 to get the most out of vintage Macs, Thomas Ahart, The Productive Mac, 2005.12.12. Although you may be able to run OS 8 or 9 on your old Mac, you’ll generally find better performance using Mac OS 7.6. A history of the Color Classic, Tom Hormby, Orchard, 2005.10.31. The first all-in-one Mac with a color display. MacOS defines a range of system colors that dynamically match the color scheme of standard interface controls like buttons and labels. These dynamic system colors are listed in the Developer palette of the standard color panel. Standard color panel (light) Standard color panel (dark).
To personalize your Mac, you may like to change the color of folders from the default blue to a shade of your choice. This customization will also help you quickly differentiate an important folder and know about it even without looking at its name. The idea behind modifying folder color in macOS is the same as changing apps and folder icons. So without further delay, let’ get started.
How to Change Color of Folders on Mac
You can do this for an existing folder as well as a new folder. In this guide, I am using a new folder.
Step #1. Right-click in Finder or Desktop and click New Folder.

The macOS folder color has been successfully changed.
That’s all, mate!
Now, you may go ahead and repeat this process for existing folders. Chances are little, but even if something goes wrong, the contents of the folder won’t be deleted. So, feel free to be creative.

With a daisy chain connection, multiple monitors can be neatly connected to each other in a row. This guide will explain how to connect monitors via daisy chain, and compatibility with various PCs. Rest assured that your daisy chain environment will work for you.
Instead of connecting each video signal cable from the monitor to the PC, several monitors can be connected to a PC by plugging the PC into monitor 1, monitor 1 into monitor 2, monitor 2 into monitor 3, and so on, like a daisy chain. By using a daisy chain, several monitors can be connected to a PC with only one output terminal, rather than the number of connectible monitors being limited to the number of outputs on a PC.
1. Daisy Chain Compatible PC
OS: Windows 10 / 8.1 (64-bit, 32-bit)
Daisy chain is not supported by macOS (DisplayPort MST is not supported).
GPU supporting one of the following signals and ports:
- USB Type-C or Thunderbolt3 (with DisplayPort Alt Mode compatibility)
- DisplayPort (with DisplayPort MST compatibility)
2. Daisy Chain Compatible Monitor(s)
- List of daisy chain compatible monitors.
3. Standard Monitor
- A monitor with a USB Type-C or DisplayPort input. The final monitor in the chain does not need to be daisy chain compatible.
4. Signal Cables
USB Type-C and/or DisplayPort cables for as many monitors as there are in the chain.
The FlexScan EV2795, EV2495 and EV2457 are daisy chain compatible.
The daisy chain connection type depends on the monitor as follows.
| Model | Size | Resolution | Connection Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| EV2795 | 27-Inch | 2560×1440 | USB Type-C |
| EV2495 | 24.1-Inch | 1920×1200 | USB Type-C |
| EV2457 | 24.1-Inch | 1920×1200 | DisplayPort |
In addition to video and audio signals, USB Type-C can also transfer other data, providing access to a USB hub or LAN connection. It is also possible to use the monitor control utility Screen InStyle without needing to connect each of the monitors with a separate USB cable.
| Connection Type | Compatible Monitor | Functions | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Video | Audio | LAN | USB Hub | Screen InStyle | Power Delivery* | ||
| USB Type-C | EV2795, EV2495 | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| DisplayPort | EV2457 | Yes | Yes | - | - | - | - |
- Power can only be delivered to the computer connected to the monitor.
Example: How to connect three monitors via daisy chain with USB Type-C.
- A total of 10 USB devices are accessible (USB Type-A x 9、USB Type-C* x 1)
- A LAN cable can be connected to any monitor in the chain.
- Power is delivered to the connected PC.
Only the USB Type-C Port of the last monitor in the chain can be accessed.
The maximum number of monitors that can be connected via daisy chain varies by model. Performance of connected monitors may also vary depending on your GPU.
1. DisplayPort 1.2 Bandwidth
The bandwidth of DisplayPort 1.2 is 21.6 Gbps, therefore the maximum number of monitors connectible depends on their resolution.
| Resolution (60 Hz refresh rate) | Maximum number of connectible monitors |
|---|---|
| 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) | 4 |
| 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA) | 4 |
| 2560 x 1440 (WQHD) | 2 |
| 3840 x 2160 (4K) | 1 |

When connecting more than one EV2795, up to two monitors can be connected, while up to four monitors can be connecting when using the EV2495 or EV2457. However, the maximum number of connectible monitors may vary depending on GPU performance.
2. GPU Performance
| Vendor | GPU Product | Maximum number of connectible monitors (with DisplayPort 1.2 MST) |
|---|---|---|
| Intel | UHD/Iris Pro Graphics 600 Series | 3 |
| HD/Iris Graphics 500 Series | 3 | |
| NVIDIA | GeForce 900 Series or later | 4 |
| Quadro P Series | 4 | |
| Quadro M Series | 4 | |
| AMD | Radeon 400 Series | 4 |
| Radeon Pro WX Series | 4 | |
| FirePro W Series | 4 |
The GPU specifications and maximum number of connectible monitors is dependent on the PC and graphics card. For details, contact the vendor of your GPU.
