C#ASPxFileRepositoryManager.SelectedFile = new DevExpress.Web.FileManagerFile(fs,relpath);
Can you send me some functional example?
Thanks.

Hi,
Here is a small code example:
C#ASPxFileManager1.SelectedFile = ASPxFileManager1.SelectedFolder.GetFiles().First();
Updated by Pavlo
The constructor of FileManagerFile(FileSystemProviderBase,String) has two arguments:
1. FileSystemProviderBase provider - the file system provider that is used to get files. You can get the current provider object from the ASPxFileManager.CustomFileSystemProvider property.
2. String relativeName - a relative path to the file. For example, "Files/file.txt" or "file.txt" (if the file is in the root folder).
To select the file, create a new FileManagerFile object by specifying the mentioned parameters:
C#ASPxFileManager1.SelectedFile = new FileManagerFile(ASPxFileManager1.CustomFileSystemProvider, "Folder2/text.txt");
Note that the file will be selected on the client side (visually) only if it is in the current File Container. I.e., the file manager will not open the folder where the selected file is located.
I created a sample project to illustrate this approach.
Thanks,
Alessandro.

I'm trying to accomplish the same task in 15.1.6, but fail to do so. I have a custom provider as well and your sample works fine for me, but in my real app I need to select a file when the page is initially loaded. So, I tried both ASPxFileManager1.SelectedFile = ASPxFileManager1.SelectedFolder.GetFiles()[0] and the suggested ASPxFileManager1.SelectedFile = new FileManagerFile(ASPxFileManager1.CustomFileSystemProvider, "Folder2/text.txt"), but neither worked for me.
Then, I created a very basic sample with the standard provider and just one line of code, but it did not work for me either. I feel that I'm missing something obvious here… I've attached the sample to this post - please make it select a file (any file) when the page is initially loaded.
I'm using a hotfix (15.1.6.15245), if that matters.
