ComponentOne WPF FilePicker is a control designed for desktop applications to facilitate file selection through a dialog interface. It provides developers with flexible options to filter file types, allow multiple selections, and customize UI elements such as watermarks and browse buttons.
File Selection Dialog Integration
The control presents a user interface similar to a combo box, but triggers a standard file picker dialog to select files instead of displaying a drop-down list.
Single or Multiple File Selection
Developers can configure the control to allow selection of one or multiple files simultaneously.
File Type Filtering
The FilePicker supports filtering selectable files based on extensions or categories, ensuring users can focus on relevant file types during selection, such as images or documents.
Watermark Support
A customizable watermark can be displayed in the text input area to guide users with instructions or hints when no file is selected.
Customizable Browse Button
The browse button trigger can be customized by assigning different content objects, allowing integration of icons, labels, or other UI elements to match application themes.
Selected Files Collection
Selected files are maintained in a collection accessible by the application, facilitating further processing such as uploads or displaying file details.
Clear Selection Capability
Developers can programmatically clear the current file selections through provided methods.
