What I tried so far: 1.JavaFX-FileChooser: -> FileChooser always opens right behind the browser (see https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-28820), where no user will find it. Same code works fine on Windows 2.Swing-JFileChooser / AWT-FileChooser: -> Throws " java.awt.HeadlessException“ exception under Java 7 I read https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-20784 <https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-20784> , but for me it is not clear, whether there is a workaround for Java 7. I could try to convince users to upgrade to Java 8, but if you visit http://java.com you'll see, it is currently nearly impossible for end users to download Java 8. The site still talks about Java 8 being a test release targeted towards developers, links to jdk, the download page is not localized, user must choose correct file, .... Anyway, JFileChooser works fine on Windows 3.SWT-FileDialog -> Closing the dialog throws NPE, then the Java-plugin crashes with an heapdump You get the song: Works fine on Windows Sorry, if the above sounds like a rant, but finding a solution can be quite frustrating. So any advice of how to get one of the above to work or about an alternative solution is very much appreciated. - Stefan
