Restricted directory in FileSelectPopup, allow sub directories

[HD_Rieper]

Hello,

I'm using CVI Version 20.0.0 (49252) together with Windows 10 Pro 20H2.

I want to use the FileSelectPopup or FileSelectPopupEx Popup with restricted directory, to allo the user to open or save a certain file. The restricted directory is the "parent" directory and has several child directories (sub directories). I want to enable the user to switch to any child dir, but not to leave the parent environment. If I select restrict directory = yes, the user can't open a child dir.

Any idea how to solve this?

Use the File Browser Control instead. Despite some limitations, it operates exactly the way you described.
