New issue 8409 by br...@chromium.org: Windows 7: use new Save dialogs http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8409 Win7 provides new fancy open and save dialogs. Without making any changes, we already get the fancy open dialogs, but we get the old ones for "Save page as..." and "Save image as..." Here's the relevant info from MSFT about how to make sure we get the new hotness: 1) Use the new IFileDialog family of APIs The new family of IFileDialog APIs (IFileDialog, IFileOpenDialog, IFileSaveDialog, IFileDialogCustomize,IFileDialogEvents, IFileDialogControlEvents) replace the legacy GetOpenFileName and GetSaveFileName APIs starting with Windows Vista. These new APIs provide a more flexible mechanism with picking and interacting with items in the shell namespace. The new APIs also provide a new data-driven customization model for adding common controls to the dialog as well as a rich callback mechanism for handling dialog events. Calling into the new IFileDialog APIs guarantees that new file dialog user interface will be displayed. 2) Do not customize the Legacy File Dialog If you do not make any customizations (template based hwnd or event hook) to the legacy API Windows will automatically thunk to the new user interface. Specifically, in your OPENFILENAME structure do not set the lpfnHook, hInstance, lpTemplatename members or the OFN_ENABLEHOOK | OFN_ENABLETEMPLATE flags. If you need to make customizations to the dialog or handle events, use the new IFileDialog family of APIs.
