Upload FileDialog customization? [message #1225702]

Hi all,
is it possible to customize the Upload FileDialog?
As you can see in the attached image, it is quite large (in my case I am using the single file option) and has no graphic decoration.
The result is therefore not optimal for an end user point of view.
Is there a chance to make it small and/or decorate it?
Thank you very much.
Vincenzo

Hi Vincenzo,
you could subclass the FileDialog and override the
FileDialog#prepareOpen method. See also FileDialog#initializeBounds for
original dialog bounds calculation implementation.
HTH,
Ivan

.... and of course, your contributions are welcome!

I also don't see why the SINGLE FileDialog should consume any extra
space. Should we open an enhancement request for it?

Regards,
Ralf

Hi Ivan & Ralf,
thanks.
A first improvement could be this (lines with //+ remark):

  private void initializeBounds() {
    Point prefSize = shell.computeSize( SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT );
    if (isMulti()) { //+
        prefSize.y += 165; // ensure space for five files
    }//+

that is:
add extra space only for multiple upload

Vincenzo

Hi Vincenzo,
the single file upload FileDialog height has been fixed as suggested in
git master.
Best,
Ivan
