The LFNAlias Browse for Folder Dialog

Fig. 2.1.1.2.2.1.0.780

Dialog with which a folder can be located and selected.

If the dialog is closed by means of its OK Button, the path of the selected folder replaces the alternative, user defined base path and the corresponding menu item in the Base Path sub-menu of the Main Windows's Options Menu.

The Dialog Text
Fig. 2.1.1.2.2.1.0.781
Provides basic information on the function and usage of the dialog, in form of a brief text.

Tree View
Fig. 2.1.1.2.2.1.0.782
Provides a hierarchical view of the folders on your computer. The hierarchical view shows the locations of all accessible folders in relation to one another. The name of the folder selected in this control is automatically entered into the Folder Name Edit Field.

Make New Folder Button
Fig. 2.1.1.2.2.1.0.790
Creates a new folder in the location selected in the dialog's Tree View.

Folder Name Edit Field
Fig. 2.1.1.2.2.1.0.793
Provided that the dialog is closed by means of its OK Button, this edit field holds the name of the folder that will become the new base path. That is, the path relative to which other relative paths can be formed by the Create Relative Path(s) menu item in the LFNAlias' Main Window's Tools Menu. Although the edit field can also be used to enter a folder name manually, by means of the keyboard, the by far more preferable method (because less error prone) is to select it in the dialog's Tree View.
