Hi team,
I intend to use WinExplorer View for File Management.
So I need some basic actions like copy/paste/cut/delete/rename file(s), New Folder etc…
As i see in demo project <GridMainDemo> and module <WinExplorer View (File Manager)>, there is no sample code for the above actions.
Are you planning to make a relevant module, or any other proposal?
Thanks
Christos
Hello,
This is a demo that shows how the WinExplorerView can work with a file system. You need to implement the mentioned functionality in your project by yourself.
I have attached a simple project demonstrating how to delete and copy a file name via a context menu. Change the "directory" variable to a path of the desired folder on your computer. Feel free to contact us if you need any further assistance.
The biggest problem with the examples in this thread is that they do not work anymore. For example, try running these examples in v17.2. I would truly like to see a working example of this concept since this ticket is referenced to over and over again by other tickets.
Hello Philip,
It looks like the example doesn't work on your side because the folder you specified has other folders. The code in the example throws an exception on an attempt to obtain an icon for a folder using the Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon method. I've removed this method and wrote another method that obtains icons for both folders and files successfully. Please see the attachment.
P.S. I also updated the example in my answer above.
