[perl-win32-gui-users] File selector supporting long filenames

[Marcus]

Is there a file selector which fully supports long filenames other than
the "open" dialog?

I've been using this, which is a good selector (reminiscent of win
3.1), but spaces will cause short file names:

use Win32::FileOp;

my @filenames = Win32::FileOp::OpenDialog(
title => 'Test',
   filters => [ 'All' => '*.*'],
  defaultfilter => 1,
  dir => 'c:\\',
  filename => ' ',
  handle  => 0,
  options => OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT  # does multiselect and does
explorer type interface
);

Thanks,

Marcus

(find "long file name" in the page)


Add Win32::API and you're done. Build a module and you're a hero.

[perl-win32-gui-users] cosmetic items

[Howard, Steven (US - Tulsa)]

I'm familiar with Perl, but I'm working on the first app I've built using
Win32::GUI. For the most part, I have everything functional, but a few items
I am having trouble finding, and would like a few pointers (and a few
pointers to some more good examples and references on GUI) on how to get
this accomplished:

1.  Can I add a caption, or prompt to a check box? Presently, I am using
a read-only text field. That's OK, but it just doesn't look like I wanted it
to look.

2.  Can I replace that camel in the upper LH corner with my company's
logo? I've looked for an example, but have not found it addressed (at least
not in a way I recognize).

Any help would be appreciated - and a pointer to a good online reference
would be REALLY appreciated.

Thanks,
