Hollywood forums

Hello!
My application runs on a MUI-Window and possibly on a public screen other than WB.
It has a Menu for Opening existing Projects.
When this Menu is called, a filerequester should appear to choose from.
When I use the normal FileRequest() command, hollywood will switch to WB-Screen, and after closing the requester, it will return to the application-screen.
Using popfile from muiroyale does not work, as it has to be in an groupobject and contains a stringgadget.
Is there a way, to open file-requester on screens, other than WB, when working with mui-Screens?

Regards

George

That was actually a bug in Hollywood. It's fixed now.

Cool!
Thanks!!

I have another Problem with Filerequest:
I want to use a pattern that hides the ".info"-Files
In other Programs the temlate: ~(#?.info) does this.
But in the FileRequest()-command the pattern always starts with "#?", no matter, what I use in the pattern-argument.
Is this a (already fixed) bug? Or is there any other way to hide the .info-files?

Regards again

It's not supported by FileRequest() because most other platforms only allow positive filtering, i.e. they don't allow certain file extensions to be excluded. I've now added a new mode flag #REQ_HIDEICONS which will suppress icons in FileRequest() on Amiga compatibles.

Never seen such an enthusiastic developer like you, before!!!

Many thanks for your support!!
Best regards
