Fileopendialog - shortcuts problem


Recommended Posts


Try something like this...

Local $sFileOpenDialog = FileOpenDialog($sMessage, @WindowsDir & "\", "Images (*.jpg;*.bmp)|Videos (*.avi;*.mpg)", $FD_FILEMUSTEXIST + $FD_MULTISELECT)

Or type FileOpenDialog, save your script with any name and press F1, is the first example in the help file.

litecold,

When I run that code I do not see any shortcuts - I only see the folders and those files with matching extensions. This is true for both 3.3.12.0 and 3.3.13.19 - and as this is a direct call to the Windows API I do not believe it is an AutoIt bug. What version and OS are you running? :huh:

P.S. I have edited your thread title - it is a bug when others agree, not just because it does not work for you. ;)

I can verify that this is happening on my computer, it's showing Internet shortcuts, not normal shortcuts. It doesn't matter what extensions you put in, it always seems to display internet shortcuts.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

BrewManNH,

Good spot - same for me when I test. :thumbsup:

But I still maintain that this is a Windows, not AutoIt, problem. :)

I'd agree that it looks to be a Windows issue, I see the same issue in SciTE and Notepad as well, so it's definitely not an AutoIt only issue.

litecold,

 

it's very unlikely that Microsoft is going to fix it

Agreed - but as the AutoIt function does nothing more than call the Windows API neither are we. :whistle:

Of interest, my ChooseFileFolder UDF does not show internet shortcuts - the link is in my sig. ;)

Yeah, cant you see they are far too busy editing the titles of threads to put a one-liner in the helpfile explaining this finding   (because god forbid somebody give their perspective of an issue and call it a bug).

not unnecessary, that badge should be renamed to editor in chief though

boththose,

Given some of your recent posts, you obviously have a problem with the way this community is run, so you have a simple choice: either wind your neck firmly back in or leave. As a hint of which I would prefer, please do not let the doorknob hit your arse on the way out. :mad:
