When I look at my docs list, each doc has a thin colored bar on the
left side of the screen. Some are green, others, red or blue. What do
these colors signify?

TIA

Each document type has it's own color:
* blue - docs
* dark green - sheets
* red - pdfs
* orange - presentations

Plus different states of document represented with colors:
* light green - local document with same content as remote document
* purple - local document with different content then remote document
* pink - during document load
* yellow - document loading error

Art,

This is good - just a thought - maybe put the colors on the menu as its own item, or within the help, or maybe display its meaning when you long press the file (or all three!).  I know that I won't remember what the colors mean without having to look them up every now and then.

Thanks,
Rick
