Any standard file dialogues available?
« on: August 16, 2013, 01:22:17 am »
Hi, in order to avoid as much wheel reinvention as possible I am wondering whether there are any standard Open/Save unit/form combos available out there or whether I am overlooking something already included.  I've rustled a quick n dirty one together but being a bit time limited would rather get into the bones of my app without personally polishing and attaching bells n whistles to something that must be out there in many finished forms/units.

Cheers!  ;D

Whoops.  :-[

Thanks very much, I'll have a good browse through the docs to see what else I've missed... :)

Actually, the most up to date and complete information is the source code. Many treasures are undocumented (and of course documentation patches are very well accepted).

Also, updates/additions to the wiki more than welcome (a bit quicker to add info to a wiki page than write a docs page...)
