Let me first say, the kdevelop team didn't create the open file dialog. That
is a standard QT dialog (QFileDialog). However, most of your suggestions
will be taken care of very soon. I'll let you know what I'm working on to
improve the file selection dialog. However, there is only so much I can do
unless the dialog is rewritten completely.
Things I don't have control of:
1) The scrolling thing is pretty much out of my hands. I know what you mean
tho..
2) The click, ctrl-click, and shift-click. There is no way I can trap these
and do the appropriate behaviour. This is definitely quite annoying tho...
Things I do have control of:
1) I will definitely implement the filtering thing.
2) I am adding the ability to add entire trees of source directories
recursively.
3) I will give the ability to maintain the structure of the tree (as opposed
to copying all of the files into the same directory!)
Things I will think of doing:
1) Writing my own file dialog that isn't so limited or improving the kde
dialog.
2) Allowing multiple selections in RFV
I hope this will help you and this should be out soon. I'm not sure if it
will be included in the next beta or in a future release. However, if you
really want this feature just let me know and I'll provide the updates for
you. I know a lot of people wish this was there...
