When opening or saving a file via Java, I want to present a file dialog that displays a desired directory that the user most probably will choose as destination.
However, I don't know how to influence the OS - it usually makes its own decisions and presents a completely different "default folder". (On the Mac, I couldn't solve this problem since many years) - Any ideas? Norbert Vischer |

With ij.io.OpenDialog, use the OpenDialog.setDefaultDirectory("/path/to/some/dir"); See http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/developer/api/ij/io/OpenDialog.html Albert -- http://albert.rierol.net |

[show rest of quote] The other constructor takes a default directory and a default name, but if both are not null, the file is directly opened without the dialog being ever shown. At least that was the case a few ImageJ versions ago, when invoked within the "run" method of a PlugIn that is then run from the menus. I haven't tested recently. Albert -- http://albert.rierol.net |
