Better folder selection dialog available
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Currently the Launcher uses a modified version of the normal .NET folder selection dialog which allows for users to paste a link to a directory.
There is a custom dialog called FolderSelectDialog that looks like a normal Windows 7/Vista folder selection dialog and allows users to select folders in a more user friendly way.
See here:

Hi,

that is definitely on our list, but I want to implement it more properly. Use of the reflection in the proposed solution is a blocker here.

If everything goes as planned, a new folder browser dialog may be released after Xmas (into the development branch). But no promises here.

Hello,

a new folder selection dialog is now available in Dev Branch and RC Branch and will be in the Stable Branch when it's released in a few days.

Great, thanks! Keep up the good work :)
