- @note On Windows the new directory button is only available with recent
- versions of the common dialogs.
+ Notice that @c wxRESIZE_BORDER has special side effect under recent (i.e.
+ later than Win9x) Windows where two different directory selection dialogs
+ are available and this style also implicitly selects the new version as the
+ old one always has fixed size. As the new version is almost always
+ preferable, it is recommended that @c wxRESIZE_BORDER style be always used.
+ This is the case if the dialog is created with the default style value but
+ if you need to use any additional styles you should still specify @c
+ wxDD_DEFAULT_STYLE unless you explicitly need to use the old dialog version
+ under Windows. E.g. do
+ @code
+ wxDirDialog dlg(NULL, "Choose input directory", "",
+ wxDD_DEFAULT_STYLE | wxDD_DIR_MUST_EXIST);
+ @endcode
+ instead of just using @c wxDD_DIR_MUST_EXIST style alone.
