John, the GTK file dialog currently ignores the list of filters. Is there
any plan to change that?
FileDialog::Private::open(string const & path,
lyx::support::FileFilterList const & /*filters*/,
string const & /*suggested*/)
The idea is to populate a combobox like:
All files (*)
LyX files (*.lyx)
Graphics files (*.{png,jpg} *.ps)
and to pass the chosen filter to GTK with:
filters.filters()[2].globs() -> "*.{png,jpg} *.ps"
If GTK doesn't like "*.{png,jpg}" then pass it through
'expand_brace_globs':
expand_brace_globs(filters.filters()[2].globs()) ->
"*.png *.jpg *.ps"
Can you tell me what, if any of this functionality you'd need?
