File Name Input box always defaults to the first vDefaultFileName about imguifiledialog HOT 4 CLOSED

hi, @aiekick I understood what internally the script does and now fixed in a proper way.
(Indeed my previous fix didn't make sense. It only worked because it forced your code to reset the FileNameBuffer at a later stage).
Turns out that you use the following lines to reset the default filename:

// Reset default file name
ResetBuffer(FileNameBuffer);
AppendToBuffer(FileNameBuffer, MAX_FILE_DIALOG_NAME_BUFFER, dlg_defaultFileName);

The issue is that the lines above are only called at specific places, which never resets the default filename when vDefaultFileName changes.
I fixed by adding the above lines just before the SetPath from OpenDialog functions.
However, because I understand you would still like to keep the previous file name or path changed by the user on the dialog file input, coding something like the following could work with proper adjustments:

void ImGuiFileDialog::OpenDialog(...){
...
  if (dlg_defaultFileName.compare(vDefaultFileName) != 0){
    // Whenever the caller has a different `vDefaultFileName`, reset the `FileNameBuffer`
    ResetBuffer(FileNameBuffer);
    AppendToBuffer(FileNameBuffer, MAX_FILE_DIALOG_NAME_BUFFER, dlg_defaultFileName);
  }
  ...
  SetPath(vPath);
}

Let me know if the explanation above makes sense.
Regards and thanks for this great library.

btw i dont understand your fix, because m_CurrentPath is replaced by vPath just after.
