select multiple files and folders

Here's a VI that will let you mess with all 32 selection mode flags.  (Only 4294967295 combintions ti try!).

Any hint at to the purpose of various selection mode flags?

There is a chance it's simply passed to the MS OpenFileName function directly.

 

If so, the flag section here would describe it.

I doubt that. The File Dialog is used on all LabVIEW platforms and its internal API is pretty much decoupled from the actual platform API (with the exception of the pattern input which you can pretty much massage into the double NULL terminated string that the Windows API expects to see for multiple patterns, but which won't work properly on non-Windows platforms).

Makes sense.
