I have multiple extensions in the Filter property of OpenFileDialog. Is possible to hide the extensions and show only the description?
Sample:
dialog.Filter = "Image files|*.bmp;*.jpg; many image file extensions here"
I want to show only the text: "Image files" in the file type combo box because the extension string is very long. Is this possible?
Best Answer
This
will only display "Image files (*.bmp)" in the combo box while still showing files with all the specified extensions.
Or you could do
to indicate that it looks for files with extension bmp and some other extensions.
This might depend on the OS. I tested with Windows 7.
