[Solved] QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory

[jocala]

I'm using QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory; With OS X the "new folder" button is grayed-out. Is there a way to enable it so along with selecting a dir, a new one can be created as well?

Not sure why this grayed out. You can use QFileDialog object itself and open the directory. It will show the tool button on the right side. I have not tried on OS X .

As name ( QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory) is suggesting , it will show all existing directory only.

I think thats why “new folder” button is grayed-out.

My error. I was opening the QFileDialog in a directory w/o write privs. As soon as that was corrected the tool button was active.

Cool. You can put this issue to "Solved" state.
