The OpenFileDialog method in the Editor.EditorUtility class is a static method used to open a file dialog box. This dialog allows users to select a file from their file system. The method returns the full path of the selected file as a string. If the user cancels the dialog, it returns an empty string.
To use the OpenFileDialog method, provide the following parameters:
title: A string representing the title of the dialog window.extension: A string specifying the file extension filter (e.g., ".txt" for text files).defaultPath: A string indicating the initial directory path that the dialog will open to.The method will return the full path of the selected file as a string, or an empty string if the dialog is canceled.
// Example usage of OpenFileDialog
string filePath = Editor.EditorUtility.OpenFileDialog(
"Select a File", ".txt", "C:\\Users\\Default\\Documents"
);
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(filePath))
{
// Proceed with the file path
// Example: Load the file or display its path
// LoadFile(filePath);
}
else
{
// Handle the case where no file was selected
// Example: Display a message to the user
// ShowMessage("No file selected.");
}
