[Beta 1] Saki's FileTree for Ext 2.0

[mjlecomte]

Hi Saki.

I'm not using your extension, nor I have browsed the 538,000 pages of support work you do for it (I can see why you wouldn't release more extensions if you continue to support them all as well as you do ).

At any rate, I viewed the demo in IE7, and it looks like someone has added a long filename which has apparently screwed up some width calculation for the panel somewhere.

Didn't know if you knew. Again, I'm not using, so don't go fixing it for me.

Cheers.

Hmmm, I've upgraded Ext on demo pages to the latest svn... Could it be that? I guess it was fine before. Anyway, I'll rather wait for an IE fan to propose a patch then to fix it myself because I force my users to use Firefox - I just specify it as a "minimum system requirement".

Thanks Saki! You were spot on. I had relocated ext to be in a different folder and this caused the incorrect path for the folder icon and thus no icon was showing up.

Thanks again for all your help and advice, always much appreciated!

that's going into my box of tricks.

@mystix, ...and you would be surprised as well and willingly they take it. They are just used from boxed versions of software that there are some "minimum system requirements". We just say: Software runs on server but you need to download and install Firefox and it is free of charge. They (or we) do it, create an icon on desktop and that's it.

wow... i'll definitely try this the next time i get a chance to define the system requirements.

Wish you good luck with this technique. Let us know what happend...

Hello, first of all, thanks for the awesome widget. It's saving me tons of time.

I'm trying to use it in rails, I've got everything working except for setting the name of the uploaded file. It's not passed as a url parameter, here's what I'm seeing:
Parameters: {"UPLOAD_IDENTIFIER"=>"8452682485", "dir"=>".", "ext-gen310"=>#<ActionController::UploadedStringIO:0xb6186210>, "cmd"=>"upload", "APC_UPLOAD_PROGRESS"=>"8452682485", "action"=>"file", "controller"=>"inv/custom_modules", "path"=>"root/test", "MAX_FILE_SIZE"=>"524288"}

Has anyone else figured this out for rails?

To answer my own question, for anyone else that happens upon it: ActionController::UploadedStringIO includes the module ActionController::UploadedFile which has an "original_filename" method:

Is there anyway to access the toolbar menu to add buttons to it? I have been trying:

treepanel.tbar
treepanel.topMenu
treepanel.getTopToolbar

But none of them seem to be the Ext toolbar object.

The only way I found to do it was editing the code in Ext.ux.FileTreePanel.js:

this.tbar = [{
text:this.fileText
,disabled:true
,scope:this
,menu:this.getContextMenu()
}];

I'm looking at adding a file search to the system.

Thanks!

Navigate to http://filetree.extjs.eu and then type in the Firebug's console:

Ext.getCmp('ftp').getTopToolbar().add({text:'Some item'})
