File Chooser Dialog Box

This is a file picker made using the new GUI in Unity. It features a floating dialog box. It has a scrollable list of folders and files. Simple one click or tap action to load a file or open a folder. Full source code to customise as you wish. Easy to re-skin to match the design of your game or application. It works on all platforms that have access to the file system; this includes Windows/Mac Standalone, Android, IOS (but not WebPlayer or Windows 8 Store).

You can set up the dialog box with a list of extensions for example "wav|ogg|mp3" and it will filter the results accordingly.

You can also type in wildcard searches into the text box. For example you can search for all files beginning with the letter 'a' by typing in:

a*

You can also use the question mark '?' to fill in an unknown letter for example:

?at.png

will match cat.png, bat.png and rat.png. For all files PNG files you can type in:

*.png

This is an ideal asset to drop into your project to allow you to load files into your project at runtime and for quick prototyping. The demo shows how to load and save text files, load images and load audio at runtime using the file picker.
