For example, in columns mode, it used to be that when a .tex file was selected, its contents would show in a panel above the file info, but now that panel is occupied by the icon. In addition,  pressing the spacebar when a .tex file is selected (all modes---icon, list, columns, screen flow) brings up not a look at its content, but a window with the icon and a button that allows you to open the file in TeXShop.

with the following caveat: this for use with TeXShop 3.14 (and later, I assume) only.

After un-zipping the file find the QLColorCode.qlgenerator you are presently using (I use Find File to do this --- a great application if you aren't interested in file contents) [most probably in ~/Library/QuickLook but...] and replace it by this version. You may want to zip the old one before replacing it. Finally, restart your computer! I'm getting nicely color coded QuickLook with TeXShop 3.14.

Remember... This is for TeXShop 3.14 and later ONLY.

Good Luck,
