Hello,
Is it possible to set a default directory for the "browse" dialog when choosing the source file to insert a page (see image below)?
I know that a property exists to set a default file path to a file:
Code: Select all
m_cPDFView.SetProperty("Operations.InsertPages.File", _variant_t(_bstr_t("C:\\Temp\\PDF-XChange Viewer SDK.pdf")), 0);
However, I'm hoping to find a property where I can set the default directory that the browse dialog can look in.
Thanks in advance.

Hello ap_mi,
If you set the "FromExternal" to True, and then set the "File" value here:

Does that help?
Cheers,
Stefan

No, that doesn't help
I'd like to set a default directory for the browse functionality. After clicking browse I'd like the browse dialog to be looking in my specified directory.
Thanks for your help.

Sorry but no way to do it currently.
