Bon soir Yves,

Hi list

on Mac OS X :

I have another question :

  put the specialFolderPath of desktop into pathToDesktopFolder
  put the defaultFolder into tDF
  set defaultFolder to pathToDesktopFolder
  answer file "Quel fichier ?" with filter "pdf" as sheet
  set defaultFolder to tDF


1) is there another way to open directly on the desktop ?
2) the filter to "pdf" files" doesn't work..??? other files are displayed.

Try this one with the correct syntax, no need to remember and reset "the directory" a.k.a "the defaultfolder" a.k.a. "Jack, the skipper" :-)

on mouseup
put specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/" into pathToDesktopFolder
# adding "/" does the trick ;-)
answer file "Quel fichier ?" with pathToDesktopFolder of type "PDF " as sheet
# note the space in "PDF "
answer it
# or whatever...
end mouseup


But this will not show ALL pdf files eventually... :-(

I usually work around this by letting the user choose ANY file, check
afterwards and let the user know in case he choose an incompatible
file...

When you set the filename of a player on OS X, check the result immediately
after that! It is empty in case of success and contains an error in the other case.


Hope that helped.

thank you

Greetings.
