Ok with this unfortunately what happens is the actual file is treated as a directory and it appears in the dropdown bar at the top. So if I pass ~/Downloads/test.pdf for setDirectoryURL: it thinks test.pdf is a directory and wants me to choose a file from the test.pdf directory. Any other ideas? :-)
