AddFilter Method

In This Topic

Add a filter which files are shown. When the user selects one filter in the decider dialog, only files of this type are displayed.

Syntax

C#
C++/CLI

public void AddFilter( 
   string strDescription,
   string strExtension
)

public:
void AddFilter( 
   String^ strDescription,
   String^ strExtension
)

Parameters

strDescription: The description visible to the user, p.e. "Text files *.txt"
strExtension: The filter, p.e. "*.txt"

Remarks

When the strDescription is empty, the system fills it automatically. This is the description used in EPLAN when the same filter is registered there or a automatically formed one from the extensions. The filter also influence the path the file select dialog is opened first. Some of the registered extensions have a standard path. When the standard path is the same for all extensions, this standard path is used. It is possible to set a custom StandardPath with the function CustomDefaultPath.
