And dialogs are very different for all supported OS. It might be an option to add controls like a dropdown but devs cannot override the defaults of the dialog.

We have two dialogs, one for the actual files with the function to load or to save depending on how it was opened, and another where you configure the service. Such a service can be WebDAV, for instance, or Google Drive. Depending on this type you have to enter more or less specifications. Plus, you have to give the child a name, like WebDAV@UserPrompt to make more than one service on a certain type possible. This type:label identification is prompted at the files dialog. Sounds pretty straightforward to me. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: design+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
