Windows Save As Dialog - xplorer equivalent??

sjlim · Post by **sjlim** » 2004 Sep 29, 05:01

Hi all..

I've been using xplorer lite for awhile now.. love it.. especially the bookmarks etc.

My question is.. I have to open up xplorer as an application.. but when using other apps, and saving files etc. ,the apps will call the windows version 'save as' dialog box. Needless to say, the default save as is extremely limited.. often opening the default my documents folder etc.

What I'm looking for is a function that will allow me to navigate to bookmarked folders etc. Does anyone have a gem that will enhance or replace the default SAVE AS / OPEN FILE dialog boxes?

Thanks

This little program will do the trick (but only for apps that use the native Windows Open/Save dialog!!)

DialogMate (Coded by Weird)

Enjoy!!

Great!

What a gem.. thanks.

This might get a little OT.. but I wonder what other time saving applications you might be using.. Here are some of my favourites..

Diskmapper - visual feedback of HD space
Strokeit - mouse gestures for windows etc.

Thanks again..

In place of Dismapper, try spacemonger-- a freeware with same features.

Hope you have already gone through chapter-8 of the user manual, which lists several applications that complement x2...
