How do you specify file type...
Wednesday, May 17, 2006 by frasej | Discussion: DesktopX
Here's a snippet of my code:
Widget.AddPreference "SSName"
Widget.Preference("SSName").Type = "File"
Widget.Preference("SSName").Caption = "Screensaver File"
Widget.Preference("SSName").DefaultValue = "scrnsave.scr"
This creates a [Browse] button in the preferences dialog. The problem is, it shows every file. Is there a way to specify which file types I want to be seen. Ex: *.scr
Widget.AddPreference "SSName"
Widget.Preference("SSName").Type = "File"
Widget.Preference("SSName").Caption = "Screensaver File"
Widget.Preference("SSName").DefaultValue = "scrnsave.scr"

I don't believe that will work as Type only recognizes certain key words.

Widget.Preference("SSName").Type = "File"
to
Widget.Preference("SSName").Type = ".scr"
would make it only look for .scr files. I am not a coder for widgets, so I don't know for sure
