QFileDialog: setFileMode(QFileDialog::Directory) not showing both directories and files and can I use one filedialog to choose both file and folder?
-
I need to provide an option to select both file and folder and when I need to choose a file, I can easily choose file browser.
"Documentation":qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qfiledialog.html says, with file mode QFileDialog::Directory both files and directories are displayed. But, it's not showing files. It is showing files when I choose to use options like
DontUseNaticeDialog e.g. setOption(QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog, true);But I can't Native Dialog go, it looks very good. Now, how can I get a FileDialog that selects both file and folder.
The demo code I have now:
@
QFileDialog x;
x.setFileMode(QFileDialog::Directory);
x.setWindowTitle("Select Folder or File(s)");
x.setViewMode(QFileDialog::Detail);
if(x.exec())
{
QStringList fileNames = x.selectedFiles();
qDebug()<<fileNames<<endl;
}
@I am using Windows 7 64 bit and Qt 5.2.1

Hi,
AFAIK, It's not possible. The QFileDialog::Directory mode should show both, but you can only select a directory
-
I'm trying to make a dialog where only directory can be selected, but where both files and directories are shown. I tried this:
@ QFileDialog dialog;
dialog.setFileMode(QFileDialog::Directory);
dialog.setOption(QFileDialog::ShowDirsOnly, false);
//dialog.setOption(QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog);
if(!dialog.exec())
return;@
It shows just directories, unlike SGaist's post.However, when I uncomment the setOption(QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog), it works as expected and shows both. Only the dialog isn't so good-looking.
This seems like a bug, doesn't it? Is there a workaround? I'm on Qt 5.3.1 on Windows.
EDIT: I found this thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19108339/qfiledialog-how-to-set-option-to-show-content-of-folder-in-getexistingdirector where they found the same on Qt 4.X. It's a pity that this still isn't fixed.
