[Solved] Linux Mint OpenFileRequester

Post by k3pto »

Porting program from Windows 10 to Linux Mint 22.3. OpenFileRequester shows the file I want to open but it is displayed in grey meaning it is not available. Why? I have set the users permissions to Read and Write for all folders in its path as well as the file itself.

You should not change the default permissions of Linux. Leads to errors if you do not know what belongs to the user or root ...
With me I can choose any file name, but not change all files.

But without code, no statement.

Code: Select all

file.s = OpenFileRequester("Open", "/", "*", 0)
