TdxOpenFileDialog.ForceFileSystem Property

Specifies if only actual files and folders in the file system can be the Open dialog’s targets.

#Declaration

Delphi
property ForceFileSystem: Boolean read; write; default False;

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean False
  • If True, the Open dialog displays an error when a user attempts to select an item inaccessible through an actual path in the file system (for example, a file within a ZIP archive).

  • If False (default), the Open dialog does not check if a selected item belongs to the file system.

#Remarks

Set the ForceFileSystem property to True to prevent the Open dialog from returning an invalid path through the FileName property.

#Default Value

The ForceFileSystem property’s default value is False.
