This doesn't work, but the code from my test script does. I
inserted it after the Pd-Extended font hacks, around line 42.<code>
# begin hack to hide hidden files/folder in tk browser on unix
if {$pd_nt == 0} { # load the dialog once, otherwise setting the vars will not work catch {tk_getOpenFile -with-invalid-argument}
# change the environment variables namespace eval ::tk::dialog::file { variable showHiddenBtn 1 variable showHiddenVar 0 }} # end hidden files/folder hack ------------------
</code>
Now open/save/saveas dialogs hide hidden files and show the toggle
button. Awesome! Ok, I assume I might as well open a dev account
somewhere are add this as a patch?Someone else try this in Linux.

You should be able to set that variable in pd.tk and have it work
without modifying the other file. Try just adding set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 1 set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 0 Somewhere near the top of the pd.tk. .hcOn Apr 2, 2008, at 2:17 PM, danomatika wrote:
IOhannes, you found the magic bullet (or forum post, that is)!
Awesome, I can confirm this works in a little test script and
screenshot. It's a button to toggle hidden file display as expected.On Wed, 2008-04-02 at 10:55 +0200, IOhannes m zmoelnig wrote:

There are quite a few apps written with Tcl/Tk for GNU/Linux,
so I am
sure we are not the first to want this feature. I would be very surprised if another Tcl/Tk app hasn't solved this already.
according to http://www.groupsrv.com/computers/about266840.html
it is acutally already built into tk-8.4 but not exposed!quoting this article:
If you have Tcl/Tk 8.4.12, find the file "tkfbox.tcl" in your Tk installation. At line 777, you will see:
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 0 set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 1
Replace them by:
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 1 set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 0
And you're done...
