KB10603 - I am using the GisSupportedFiles function to obtain the filter for all supported file types to list in my open file dialog box. But when I select 'All supported files', not all supported file types are listed. What's wrong?
Answer is easy... the DK supports too many file formats to be shown in the standard Windows OpenFileName dialog box dropdown list. This standard dropdown list is limited to approximately 256 characters (corresponding to the sum of all the file endings of the supported formats) for a single filter. Characters beyond the limit are ignored.
You can implement a Dialog box on your own to accommodate the full format list supported by TatukGIS or experiment with the ‘include notify call back’ to solve this issue.
