[sneubert]

just a guess, but maybe you can use some kind ofsetFilter(QDir::Dirs) and selectedUrls() or selectedFiles()

[opengpu2]

@sneubert getexistingdirectory or getopenfilenames is static API

sorry, if you cant create an object of QFileDialog, I think it´s not possible

[opengpu2]

@sneubert
@QFileDialog* _f_dlg = new QFileDialog(this);
_f_dlg->setFileMode(QFileDialog::Directory);
_f_dlg->setOption(QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog, true);

// Try to select multiple files and directories at the same time in QFileDialog
QListView l = _f_dlg->findChild<QListView>("listView");
if (l) {
l->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::MultiSelection);
}
QTreeView t = _f_dlg->findChild<QTreeView>();
if (t) {
t->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::MultiSelection);
}

int nMode = _f_dlg->exec();
QStringList _fnames = _f_dlg->selectedFiles();@

Try this you can select/Deselect the directories. since native directory file browser won't support the multiple directory selection, need to set the flags DontUseNativeDialog, its exactly what @opengpu2 has said.

QFileDialog w;
w.setFileMode(QFileDialog::DirectoryOnly);
w.setOption(QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog,true);
QListView *lView = w.findChild<QListView*>("listView");
if (lView)
    lView->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::MultiSelection);
QTreeView *tView = w.findChild<QTreeView*>();
if (tView)
    tView->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::MultiSelection);
w.exec();
qDebug() << " Selected Directories :  " << w.selectedFiles();

selectedFiles can return the selected Dirs and Files....
but these are in QStringList....how can i distinguish the dir from the files?
thank you!
