EditorFileDialog

Inherits: FileDialog < ConfirmationDialog < AcceptDialog < Window < Viewport < Node < Object

A modified version of FileDialog used by the editor.

Description

EditorFileDialog is a FileDialog tweaked to work in the editor. It automatically handles favorite and recent directory lists, and synchronizes some properties with their corresponding editor settings.

EditorFileDialog will automatically show a native dialog based on the EditorSettings.interface/editor/use_native_file_dialogs editor setting and ignores FileDialog.use_native_dialog.

Note: EditorFileDialog is invisible by default. To make it visible, call one of the popup_* methods from Window on the node, such as Window.popup_centered_clamped().

Method Descriptions

Deprecated: This feature is no longer supported.

This method is kept for compatibility and does nothing. As an alternative, you can display another dialog after showing the file dialog.
