Platform.FilePickerVisible

static bool FilePickerVisible{ get }

Description

This will check if the file picker interface is currently visible. Some pickers will never show this, as they block the application until the picker has completed.

Examples

Opening a Model

This is a simple button that will open a 3D model selection file picker, and make a call to OnLoadModel after a file has been successfully picked!

if (UI.Button("Open Model") && !Platform.FilePickerVisible) {
	Platform.FilePicker(PickerMode.Open, OnLoadModel, null, Assets.ModelFormats);
}

Once you have the filename, it’s simply a matter of loading it from file. This is an example of async loading a model, and calculating a scale value that ensures the model is a reasonable size.

private void OnLoadModel(string filename)
{
	model          = Model.FromFile(filename);
	modelTask      = Assets.CurrentTask;
	modelScale     = 1;
	modelScaleDone = false;
	model.OnLoaded += (m) => {
		if (m.Anims.Count > 0)
			m.PlayAnim(m.Anims[0], AnimMode.Loop);
	};
}
