OpenFileRequester() : Default Directory

Got an idea for enhancing SpiderBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

OpenFileRequester() : Default Directory

Post by IdeasVacuum »

Being able to define a default folder for an OpenFileRequester() request would be useful.

Hi Fred

The issue is that most Smart Phone apps need to store some persistent data. OpenFileRequester() in that context is itself a work-around as the User should not have to find, select and load a dependency file - that should be done silently by the app, which is of course what the apps on our phones are doing. It's not so different to loading image files without User input, something which SB apps can already do.
