User template project creation

(1/1)

kkez:
When creating a default project, the "Browse for folder" (the one you get by calling SHBrowseForFolder, i dunno its wxwidgets name) dialog has the button to create a new folder. When creating a project from a user template, instead, the "Browse for folder" dialog does not have that button.

EDIT: also, that dialog isn't modal (actually it seems a top window, even if child of codeblocks...), so if i switch to another program and return to CB, that dialog is visible but suddenly disappear under the codeblocks window. If i click on the shell toolbar (the one with the start button on it, i don't know how to all that  :D) button for that dialog, the same thing happens.

EDIT2: another little thing: you can name the user template project, but that seems to apply only to the project file name, and not to the project name inside codeblocks.

Hmm... I just looked into this, thought "Why, someone forgot a flag, that'll be easy to fix".
But in fact... there is no flag you can pass to wxFileDialog which controls whether or not you can create new folders :(

Also, I checked for modality, and all wxFileDialogs are shown as modal dialogs.

Unsure whether we will be able to fix this...

EDIT2 is a feature missed I think.

It's not the wxFileDialog, it's the wxDirDialog (i found its name). And there's a flags that enable that button: wxDD_NEW_DIR_BUTTON.
