Graphics.UI.Gtk.Selectors.FileChooserDialog

A file chooser dialog, suitable for "File/Open" or "File/Save" commands

• Module available since Gtk+ version 2.4

Detail

FileChooserDialog is a dialog box suitable for use with "File/Open" or "File/Save as" commands. This widget works by putting a FileChooserWidget inside a Dialog. It exposes the FileChooser, interface, so you can use all of the FileChooser functions on the file chooser dialog as well as those for Dialog.

Note that FileChooserDialog does not have any methods of its own. Instead, you should use the functions that work on a FileChooser.

Response Codes

FileChooserDialog inherits from Dialog, so buttons that go in its action area have response codes such as ResponseAccept and ResponseCancel.
