set_current_name


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.4" ) ]
public void set_current_name (string name)

Sets the current name in the file selector, as if entered by the user.

Note that the name passed in here is a UTF-8 string rather than a filename. This function is meant for such uses as a suggested name in a “Save As...” dialog. You can pass “Untitled.doc” or a similarly suitable suggestion for the name.

If you want to preselect a particular existing file, you should use set_filename or set_uri instead. Please see the documentation for those functions for an example of using set_current_name as well.

Parameters:

this

a FileChooser

name

the filename to use, as a UTF-8 string
