Re: File Dialog?

[LePhuronn]

I think everybody has gone a little too nuts over BuddyAPI..

You want cross-platform dialog boxes for Open and Save? Then use the FileIO
Xtra that ships with Director!!

Here's a little script to display an Open dialog on BOTH platforms...

on mouseUp
     fileIO = new(xtra "fileio")

     myFileName = displayOpen(fileIO)
     if myFileName = void then exit

     -- you have the path to the file you want to open
     -- so do your open code here
end

You can also use setFilterMask() to apply file filters, such as .html, .mp3
etc.
