QFileDialog options

[The Storm]

Here what I have


QFileDialog *fileDialog = new QFileDialog();
fileDialog->setWindowTitle("Open media file");
fileDialog->setFilter(QString("Media Files (*.mp3 *.wav *.wma)"));
fileDialog->exec();
QString szTempFile = fileDialog->result();


I can set WindowTitle, Filter and other functions that take flags, but there is no function that take the Options like QFileDialog::ShowDirsOnly, QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog and etc. Maybe there is other way and I can't see it? I don't want to use the static public members like getExistingDirectory() and such.

Thanks. :)

If you use the non-static method, native dialog won't be used. You can substitute ShowDirsOnly with setting the fileMode property.

Ahh, ok, then is there a way to add custom widget to the native windows dialog like a checkbox for recursive dirs. I have seen this in some players and other programs or they had created a new custom dialog that looks like the windows one ? :)

If you access the layout of the widget, then why not...

I suppose the native file dialog has an option for such checkbox. You might have to construct such file dialog yourself via WinAPI...

I'm afraid a native file dialog doesn't have a layout which would be able to manage QWidgets... ;)

Well... yes, somehow I missed the fact that the question was for the native dialog.
