Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to have an Open File dialog with MaxGui and how this works.
Can I access the WinXP default one?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Yep - it's actually in the standard BlitzMax installation under the BRL.System module and is therefore cross-platform.
Basically, you use RequestFile$() - look it up in the BlitzMax docs for a working example and parameter information.
Thanks a lot Seb, you helped me with a little program I need to write to make my life easier at work.
No probs, just in case you didn't see the others, there is also RequestColor(), RequestDir() and in the MaxGUI module there is RequestFont().
Many thanks. I am sure I will find an opportunity to use them as well.
Never thought that Bmax would help me with my job ;-)
Make sure that you check the workaround for the file requester bug posted here:
