Single click in file open dialogs in KDE4.1

Hi,
In my KDE 4.1, there's something that doesn't seem right:
If in system settings, mouse&keyboard, I set the option "Double-click to open files and folders", then it doesn't actually listen to that setting.
In a file open dialog, it opens a file already with a single click. This makes it very hard to select multiple files in the dialog (e.g. when opening files with kate), because if you press CTRL and click on the file, instead of just making a selection of it, it opens that 1 file and closes the file open dialog.
Is this really the intention? How can I select multiple files that are not all below each other?
Is it the intention that it doesn't listen to the double click setting? And is it the intention that the behaviour is inconsistent with any other desktop environment? I mean, they didn't just change something universally accepted, right?

I mean if I just use the below script, it works.
getURL("javascript:loadintoIframe('myframe',
'v_vista_b5.html')");
but if I want to control 2 iframes in one clicking, it
doesn't work(it basically load only the second statment, and skips
the first). I'd like to know is it possible to combine below 2
javascript into one?
getURL("javascript:loadintoIframe('myframe',
'v_vista_b5.html')");
getURL("javascript:loadintoIframe('topframe',
'top_v_vista_b5.html')");
thanks again.

File Open Dialog Box on Button Click

Hi
I am devloping some webpages using JSF and RichFaces..
I would like to appear File open Dialog box to choose single file and multiple files and another Folder chooser dialog box to choose the folder content..
Both the operation should be performed while choosing the Button Choose File and Choose Folder...
I have already tried Input type = file and aphace tomohawk..
But i all the components are coming with text box and browse button..
I dont need that. I need to open the dialog box once i clilck my choose file r folder button and it should work browser indepent.....

HTML doesn't provide you the possibility to select multiple files or select folders at a single browse. Thus JSF can't do any much for you. Best what you can do is to write a signed applet or web start application which does the task. The Mojarra Scales component library has a ready-to-use component which embeds an applet which does that task. Check [https://scales.dev.java.net/multiFileUpload.html].

File open dialog box broken in all apps! ( 10.5.6/7

Hi, I've got a very odd problem that Apple phone support seem to be unable to solve.
Basically, every file open dialog box system wide is broken, from file->open in textedit to the browse button on websites for uploading files.
When trying to display this finder panel, it beachballs for ten seconds then gives me a grey area where the usual finder browser usually resides and the open / cancel buttons at the bottom of the panel.
I've repaired permissions which had no effect.
The finder works perfectly other than it's little file open dialog which other applications use...
Updating to 10.5.7 did nothing to fix the issue.
Does anybody have any idea how to resolve this?
Thanks!
chris.

V.K. had you create another user to eliminate the possibility that it is a preference file causing the problem. It was reported the problem remained with another user, so the problem is system wide, not with a single user's preferences.
The Archive & Install is relatively painless. It only replaces the system and leaves everything else untouched. What is replaced is saved in a new folder it creates named Previous System, in case there is something there you might want to bring back (most often 3rd party files, but I have never needed anything from the Previous System folder).
The only hassle with the A & I is resetting preferences. If you check the option during the A & I to retain user settings, there is usually not very much that needs resetting.

Show File Open Dialog and get File

Am creating a document where I want to prompt the user with the File Open dialog box and when a file is selected, I want to get that file and attach to the document. I know the scripting allows files to be attached but how do I display the dialog and then attach using the script.
Will greatly appreciate the help.
Am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7
Thanks
Nilesh!

Hi Nilesh,
You can use the getDataObject method of the Adobe document object. Below is a sample script that you can attach to the click event of a button to see how it works. For more information on importDataObject and getDataObject go to
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/sdk/pdf/javascript/AcroJS.pdf
SAMPLE
======
//Get a handle to the Adobe document object
var doc = event.target;
//Display a file dialog box and assign the name Attachment to the
//DataObject that contains the selected file.
doc.importDataObject("Attachment");
//Get the DataObject and store it in MyData
var MyData = doc.getDataObject("Attachment");
//Clear and display the console window
console.show();
console.clear();
//Output the properties of the DataObject
for (var i in MyData) console.println("MyData." + i + "=" + MyData[i]);

File open dialog cannot open directory

Hi,
I encountered a problem in version 1.2 on Windows machine.
I have my SQL scripts stored in a directory called SQL, when I try to open this directory in the file open dialog it just doesn't open up. It seems to be connected to the name SQL.
When I rename the directory it works just fine...
Best regards
Christian

I could replicate this problem when opening the file through:
right click in sql worksheet & select open from context menu.
Bug # 6318825 has been filed for this.
As, a workaround you could use File-Open from main menu or toolbar button. Those work well.

Opening file also opens "File Open" dialog

I have recently noticed a changed behaviour in my Mac OS X Mountain Lion. Every time I double click a file to open it (Excel Spreadsheet, PDF File, etc.) the application gets launched and opens the file. But it also shows the File Open dialog (Excel, Preview, etc...). This is quite annoying because Excel for example opens a blank spreadsheet when I click Cancel on the File Open dialog. Preview at least does nothing. But I still have to dismiss the extra dialog.
Any idea how to fix this?

File open dialog to just get the user selected file name

Hi,
I am working on asynchronous file storage to KPRO through my ABAP WD application. For this asynchronous upload
operation, I just need the file name and file path(not the content). The KPRO servers could be made to use SAPFTP, SAPHTTP in the background to upload documents (triggered via tRFC's).
Is it possible to have a file open dialog (similar to java file open) which just returns the file path and file name instead of the
content? Current fileUpload UI element also loads the content which is not desired behaviour for me (because could be a performance problem with large documents uploading).
Is it possible to select multiple filenames? Thomas Jung's Flash island multiple upload works, but not in my
asynchronous scenario. Because flex fileReferenceList + upload operation works synchronously.

You must remember the START-OF-SELECTION event here, after you select the file name and click F8, the START-OF-SELECTION event is triggered, but if it is not there, nothing will happen.

SQL Server Management Studio File Open dialog is very slow to change directories

I am running Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 10.0.2531.0 on Windows 7 Professional.
I have an intermittent problem with the File Open dialog. Sometimes it works reasonably well, but often it takes a very long time (a few minutes) to change directory. While it is doing whatever it is doing, the dialog and all of SSMS becomes unresponsive
- I can't even cancel the dialog. It sometimes changes the cursor to an hourglass and sometimes not.
I do not have this problem with any other application.
I can open File Open one time and have this delay for every single directory change or if I open the Look In dropdown then, after closing it I can open it again and it will work with normal delays.
It is slow more often than it is normal.
It makes accessing files very impractical.

Hi,
10.0.2531.0 is SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 (release April 2009)
No guarantee this will fix your issue, but may be worth testing the latest Service Pack 3 (released October 2011) to see if that helps

File Open Dialog Box

Under my install of Vista Enterprise on an AD network, I'm am not getting the "computer" option to access local and network drives when I select "File/Open". All I get is the redirected "home" directory for that user. True for all Adobe applications (have the latest Creative Suite 4). Other Windows apps using Windows file/open dialog box can get to the network. Tech support said I should have an option to select the OS dialog box, but I do not see that on my install.

In Edit > Preferences > File Handling, uncheck "Enable Version Cue". This is where you will find it in CS4; earlier versions may have slight variations. In some versions, you may also get a checkbox in the file open dialog (down at the lower left, as I recall) that lets you select OS dialog or Adobe dialog. Also, in Bridge (again CS4), go to Edit > Preferences > Startup Scripts, and uncheck Adobe Version Cue CS4. (I have this unchecked, and even with Enable Version Cue checked in PS I don't get the Adobe dialog or the option to set it, so the setting in bridge seems to be the master.)

File Open Dialog Box Hiding Behind - Urgent

Hi All
We have write code for Opening File in File Open Dialog Box. But its stays in inactive mode behind SBO. Once we press ALT +TAB only then we can see it. How to Activate it or make it visible automatically in SAP Business One.
The Code for Opening File we have written is in C#
<b>OpenFileDialog objOpenFileDialog = new OpenFileDialog();
objOpenFileDialog.InitialDirectory = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + "
objOpenFileDialog.Filter = "Excel files (.xls)|.xls";
if(objOpenFileDialog.ShowDialog()!= DialogResult.Cancel)
string ExcelFilePath = objOpenFileDialog.FileName;
}</b>
Thanks in Advance
Asutosh

Common problem... Do the following instead.
System.Windows.Forms.Form form = new System.Windows.Forms.Form();
form.TopMost = true;
OpenFileDialog objOpenFileDialog = new OpenFileDialog();
objOpenFileDialog.InitialDirectory = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + "\";
objOpenFileDialog.Filter = "Excel files (*.xls)|*.xls";
if(objOpenFileDialog.ShowDialog(form)!= DialogResult.Cancel)
string ExcelFilePath = objOpenFileDialog.FileName;
That should do it

How to invoke 'File Open' dialog box in Forms (under unix)

Hi all,
On the Unix platform (motif), how do I get the File Open Dialog
Box by using Forms45.
Thanks and regards,
Srinivasa.
null

going from 6i to 10g is a migration. That's no easy step normally.
client-server-functionality has gone. web-functionality is new.
Install the new webutil-toolset from oracle and use the new file-open-dialog from the webutil.pll. That's the way you work in the new 10g-environment.
Read in the forms-section of the OTN the migration-papers and the webutil-doc's

File open dialog - abap webdynpro

Hi,
You can use FILE UPLOAD UI element from the UI Library for file upload functionality. It returns a XSTRING for the uploaded file. Create an attribute of type XSTRING in your view which contains the FILE UPLOAD UI element and bind the attribute to data property of FILE UPLOAD UI.
You have to manipulate this XSTRING to get the values from the file.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Calling Windows File Open Dialog from Forms

Has anyone used the File Open Dialog of MS-Windows from within
forms? How do you invoke it and how do you pass arguements (in
and out) to communicate with it?

GET_FILE_NAME built-in
Description
Displays the standard open file dialog box where the user can
select an existing file or specify a new file.
Syntax
FUNCTION GET_FILE_NAME
(directory_name VARCHAR2,
file_name VARCHAR2,

message VARCHAR2,
dialog_type NUMBER,
select_file BOOLEAN;
Built-in Type unrestricted function
Returns VARCHAR2
Enter Query Mode yes
Parameters
directory_name
Specifies the name of the directory containing the file you want
to open. The default value is NULL. If directory_name is NULL,
subsequent invocations of the dialog may open the last directory
visited.
file_name
Specifies the name of the file you want to open. The default
value is NULL.
file_filter
Specifies that only particular files be shown. The default

filename VARCHAR2(256)
BEGIN
filename := GET_FILE_NAME(File_Filter=> 'TIFF Files (*.tif)
