OpenFileDialog Filter property in EditorBrowser

[Erica]

When using the EditorBrowser control, is it possible to set properties on the OpenFileDialog dialog, such as the OpenFileDialog.Filter property?

Hello Erica,

Thank you for writing.

I assume that you are asking about RadBrowseEditor. If so, yes you can access the OpenFileDialog and introduce the desired settings:

if (radBrowseEditor1.DialogType == Telerik.WinControls.UI.BrowseEditorDialogType.OpenFileDialog)
{
    OpenFileDialog dialog = (OpenFileDialog)radBrowseEditor1.Dialog;
    dialog.Filter = "(*.txt)|*.txt";
}

I hope this helps.

Hi

Do we have something to do this on the graphical interface ? If not there is an example somewhere ?

Thanks

i used on the event click

private void radBrowseEditor1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{ 

OpenFileDialog dialog = (OpenFileDialog)radBrowseEditor1.Dialog;
    dialog.Filter = "(*.txt)|*.txt";

}

Hello Sergio,

Thank you for updating the thread. Handling the click event is a possible solution.  Please also note that you can access the dialog at any time and change its filter.

Let me know if you need further assistance.

Hi Sergio,

For example, you can set the filter in the constructor of the form: 

public partial class RadForm1 : Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadForm
{
    public RadForm1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        OpenFileDialog dialog = this.radBrowseEditor1.Dialog as OpenFileDialog;
        if (dialog != null)
        {
            dialog.Filter = "(*.txt)|*.txt";
        }
    }
}

I am also attaching my test project.
