FileTypes order

General
1

Hello,

Coding with 2021r1.1 for Windows Desktop

I created a File Type Group called ‘MMFileTypes’.
In that group i created 5 file type sets.
How can I specify the order of appearance in a FileDialog ?
Apparently it is not the order as shown in the File type group.

Etienne

Not possible. In former times it was at least possible to collapse the file types. But this was lost in some update.

Have you tried File Type ? (Formerly know as File Type Set)

Thanks both for the reply.

I have done a little test, and apparently the order of appearance seems to be the creation of the different sets. First created is the first to be shown in the dialog… and so on.
At least that worked for me this time.
