Question, is there a way to add more than one file type for this command?

For example, @LocalFileDialog("Choose a picture", "*.png, *.jpg, *.bmp")

Also, is it possible to start this command in a different folder or directory?

For example, Sesame is defaulted to Start In "C:\Sesame2" but I would like this to command to Start In somewhere else, say "C:\Users\User\Downloads".

The File Dialog uses the Current Working Directory of the Sesame program so you can swap that to a different directory and then swap it back. It is VERY important to swap it back otherwise other pieces of your code that are expecting it to be C:\Sesame2(Or whatever you have it set to) will fail.

Code
Select All
Var vPicked as String
Var vCWD as String

vCWD = @LocalCWD()
LocalCWD("C:\Sesame2\Pics")
vPicked = @LocalFileDialog("Pick One", "*.{jpg,png,gif}")
LocalCWD(vCWD)

Oh, cool this is a new command since Version 2.5.3, I didn't see it in the Programming Guide. Thanks, I'll try this too.
