Hi,
for an add-on that I'm writing (Origin7, SR4), I need an open box that displays a group of file types (e.g. '*.dat' and '*.txt') at the same time.
How can I do this in OriginC?
Thanks, Rolf

Hi Rolf,
The Origin C GetOpenBox() function will show either DAT or TXT files, but not both at the same time. (At least I haven't figured out how to do that.)
string sFile;
StringArray saFiletypes;
saFiletypes.SetSize( 2 );
saFiletypes[0]="[DAT files (*.dat)] *.dat";
saFiletypes[1]="[TXT files (*.txt)] *.txt";
sFile = GetOpenBox(saFiletypes,GetAppPath(),"","Open");
out_str(sFile); // full path of selected file
However, LabTalk's fdlog.open() will show DAT and TXT files at the same time...
char sFile[100];
using fdlog = LabTalk.fdlog;
fdlog.numTypes = 1;
fdlog.type1$ = "[Data files (*.dat;*.txt)] *.dat;*.txt";
fdlog.path$ = GetAppPath();
fdlog.open("A");
string sPath = fdlog.path$;
LT_get_str("%A",sFile,100);
out_str(sPath+sFile);
...Just figured out how to do it with GetOpenBox(). It requires an extra pair of quotes.
string sFile;
StringArray saFiletypes;
saFiletypes.SetSize( 1 );
saFiletypes[0]="\"[DAT files (*.dat;*.txt)] *.dat;*.txt\"";
sFile = GetOpenBox(saFiletypes,GetAppPath(),"","Open");
out_str(sFile); // full path of selected file
