3.2.6 File Browser

Many screens in the user interface require a file to be selected from a directory. These screens use
a file browser, which is a collection of components that can be used to change directories and
select items within directories. While the implementation may differ slightly from screen to
screen, there are some basic components that all file browsers share. The Save As dialog shown in
Figure 3.2.6.1 on page 24 is duplicated here to serve as an example file browser. Instances of
other file browsers are the tabs on the Program:File screen and the dialogs that appear when New
or Copy This are pressed on the Program:Editor screen.

The file browser permits navigation to the files in the top-level directories shown in the Save In
(or Look In or Directory) drop-down menu, and files in any subdirectories of the top-level direc-
tories. To change directories, first select the top-level directory using the Save In drop-down
menu. Whenever a directory is selected, its contents are displayed in the file list area below the
Look In drop-down menu. In the file list area, a sub-directory can be opened by touching to high-

light the subdirectory to enter, then clicking on the Open Folder

button. To select a file,

touch it to highlight it. The current directory name for the file browser may be displayed on some
screens. Other screens, such as the Save As dialog, may also display the selected file.

When moving through a directory tree, it may be desirable to go back up to the parent
directory. The Up One Level button is used to do this. When the current directory is a
top-level directory, this button is disabled.
