VisUI: default text or selection for InputDialog and FileChooser about vis-ui HOT 4 CLOSED

InputDialog changes are done.

Not sure what do you mean about writing predefined extension to field, what would that do?

from vis-ui.

Added method to set selected files in chooser, though there's one flaw I couldn't make file list scroll pane to scroll to that file. I can't get proper coordinates of FileItem here. localToParent(Stage)Coordinates returns very weird cords.

Not sure what do you mean about writing predefined extension to field, what would that do?

The scenario in our work-in-progress editor: I want to save a file in JSON format, so I open FileChooser with a certain folder and the filter set to .json. But still, the user would need to type "filename - dot - json". The idea is to preset the input field to ".json".

Now as I think of it, I may also expand our own code to conditionally append the extension myself... :)

Thanks a lot for the other changes.

Imo having just the extension already in field seems a bit unintuitive. User would have to click at begging of field to use it, if he clicked somewhere else then he needs to use arrow keys to move at begging or erase text and retype it. Kinda bad UX, I'd leave that for now ;)
