View Source wxGenericDirCtrl (wx v2.4.3)

This control can be used to place a directory listing (with optional files) on an arbitrary window.

The control contains a wxTreeCtrl window representing the directory hierarchy, and optionally, a wxChoice window containing a list of filters.

Styles

This class supports the following styles:

  • wxDIRCTRL_DIR_ONLY: Only show directories, and not files.

  • wxDIRCTRL_3D_INTERNAL: Use 3D borders for internal controls. This is the default.

  • wxDIRCTRL_SELECT_FIRST: When setting the default path, select the first file in the directory.

  • wxDIRCTRL_SHOW_FILTERS: Show the drop-down filter list.

  • wxDIRCTRL_EDIT_LABELS: Allow the folder and file labels to be editable.

  • wxDIRCTRL_MULTIPLE: Allows multiple files and folders to be selected.

This class is derived, and can use functions, from:
