The Filesystem Browser
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Sometimes higan will need you
|
|
to choose a file or folder.
|
|
For this, it uses a special Filesystem Browser dialog.
|
|
Although many operating systems provide a native filesystem browser,
|
|
they do not all allow the same customisations.
|
|
Therefore,
|
|
higan provides its own filesystem browser
|
|
that works the same way on every platform.
|
|
|
|
The filesystem browser shows the contents of some particular folder,
|
|
and allows you to select one of those items.
|
|
|
|
Across the top of the window,
|
|
a text-box displays the path of the current folder.
|
|
If you want to browse a specific path,
|
|
you may edit the contents of this box
|
|
and press Enter to switch to the new location.
|
|
|
|
The  button is "Refresh".
|
|
Pressing this button will check
|
|
if anything has been added to or removed from the current folder
|
|
and update the list to match.
|
|
|
|
The  button is "Home".
|
|
Pressing this button will switch to your home folder.
|
|
|
|
The  button is "Parent".
|
|
Pressing this button will
|
|
switch to the parent of the current folder.
|
|
|
|
Most of the filesystem browser lists the contents
|
|
of the current folder.
|
|
Double-clicking a folder,
|
|
or selecting it and pressing Enter,
|
|
will switch to showing the contents of that folder.
|
|
If the list has keyboard focus,
|
|
typing any text will jump to the first item in the list
|
|
whose name begins with the text you typed.
|
|
|
|
If a drop-down list appears in the bottom-left,
|
|
it allows you to choose which files appear in the list,
|
|
based on file-extension.
|
|
|
|
If this filesystem browser is asking for a file,
|
|
you can choose one
|
|
by double-clicking it,
|
|
by selecting it and pressing Enter,
|
|
or by selecting it and clicking the "Select" button in the bottom-right.
|
|
|
|
If this filesystem browser is asking for a folder,
|
|
you can choose one
|
|
by selecting it and clicking the "Select" button in the bottom-right.
|
|
Double-clicking
|
|
or selecting and pressing Enter don't work,
|
|
they just switch to viewing the contents of that folder.
|
|
|
|
The "Cancel" button in the bottom-right
|
|
closes the filesystem browser without selecting anything.
