About a better filedialog
Hi guys I did a pass (ported to P7, tonel, some little fixes) on the file-dialog developed by Peter Uhnak and I think that it would be good to propose it by default in the image. what do you think? https://github.com/Ducasse/file-dialog I would also like that the filedialog remembers the last list of visited directory. (I will see if I can add this). When Spec2 is out I would like to port it to Spec2. Does anybody want to help? Because it would be super nice and Iâm full with cleaning textEditor and pluggableTextMorph. Stef
What is cool is that you can add bookmarks :) I did it to list the place where I store all my iceberg repo :)

I do not have time to personally work on this. But yes, having a better file dialog would be fantastic Alexandre

For DrGeo, when loading a sketch from an arbitrary location, I use the preview feature of the polymorph File Dialog. I don't see it in this simple replacement of File Dialog. Hilaire Le 18/03/2019 à 20:31, ducasse a écrit :

Preview is indeed not supported. My original idea was to show a regular GTInspector view on the file, but I never got around to implementing it. On Tue, Mar 19, 2019 at 8:36 PM Hilaire <hilaire@drgeo.eu> wrote:

Something as simple as in the current filedialog will be far than enough: an option to toggle a preview display. It is then the responsibility of the user to code the preview view. I am afraid an inspector view will look too hackish for a user like a teacher or a kid. Hilaire Le 19/03/2019 à 20:42, Peter Uhnak a écrit :

Can you send a snippet so that I can see what it means because I do not understand exactly how this is related to the fileDialog. Stef

Ok I see and how the preview is done? You register some objects to the fileDialog? Because I get this one. So may be we are talking about a different one.

Ah, may be we are not talking about the same tool. I am talking about the FileDialogWindow, I think part of the Gary's Polymorph. And you about FileList according to your screenshot. Is Peter's FileDialog intend is to replace FileList? Or FileDialogWindow? Hilaire Le 20/03/2019 à 19:13, ducasse a écrit :

I was thinking the FileList. Now I will look at the FileDialogWindow :) Stef

I checked and they are not related. And we can keep for now the DileDialogWindow. Stef

Hi, While a good FileDialog may have a preview⦠I think the best thing is that you can take the component and reuse it, adding the behaviour you want. At least, that would be the purpose of Spec, isnât? So⦠you could not wait until someone add a preview and you could add the preview you like it :) Esteban Ps: Of course, I know that means time⦠and I know a new component has to provide the same functionalities as the older one at least. I was just pointing it :)

Peter's FileDialog looks so much better than FileList :) Le 20/03/2019 à 20:09, ducasse a écrit :
