Placing TS_EngineDisplayOpenFileDialog into detailed mode.

[hurst]

I have an open file dialog created by TS_EngineDisplayOpenFileDialog (). Whenever it comes up I always have to put it into details mode and set the sort order to modification date, with the latest at the top.

What I want to do is to have the software do this for me each time it brings up this dialog. Can anyone help here?

I would also like to be able to specify the size of this dialog.

Hi Hurst

Unfortunately, there is not a way to sort files and show details in the file dialog box using the TestStand properties and methods.

However, one possible workaround might be to use a windows function call, assuming one exists. You could call this function programatically from TestStand to automatically sort your dialog box, along with displaying the details.
