Nope. I filed a bug (10522782), it got marked as a duplicate of bug 8106339
Mine was: NSOpenPanel beginForDirectory:file:types:modelessDelegate:didEndSelector:contextInfo: let you provide an initial selection. The replacement method doesn't. In addition to having an initial selection, it would be nice to have a way to set selection while the panel is up; for instance, a "Recent Items" in an accessoryView would want to change the selection. Since it's possible to set the selection with drag and drop, it ought to be possible to do it programmatically. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Fernandes" <dave.fernan...@utoronto.ca> To: "Rick C." <rickcort...@gmail.com> Cc: "Cocoa-Dev List" <cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com> Sent: Monday, June 11, 2012 8:00:25 AM Subject: Re: setting preselected file for nsopenpanel Well, NSOpenPanel inherits from NSSavePanel, so setNameFieldStringValue: might work. I haven't tried this, and I don't know whether there would be sandboxing issues.
