SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/FileSB.h>
Widget XmCreateFileSelectionDialog(
Widget parent,

ArgList arglist,

DESCRIPTION

XmCreateFileSelectionDialog is a convenience creation function that creates a DialogShell and an unmanaged FileSelectionBox child of the DialogShell. A FileSelectionDialog selects a file. It includes the following:

•   An editable text field for the directory mask

•   A scrolling list of filenames

•   An editable text field for the selected file

•   Labels for the list and text fields

•   Four buttons

The default button labels are OK, Filter, Cancel, and Help. One additional WorkArea child may be added to the FileSelectionBox after creation.

Use XtManageChild to pop up the FileSelectionDialog (passing the FileSelectionBox as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down.

XmCreateFileSelectionDialog forces the value of the Shell resource XmNallowShellResize to True.
