Hello everyone,
I have GUI that browse directories using uigetdir function. I want to see the files in the directories in the dialog window.
But, since I am using the uigetdir function, the dialog only shows the directories. Is there any way to display the files when browsing the directories in uigetdir function?
I don't want to use the uigetfile function.
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem. People are confused that no files are shown. I understand what uigetdir is meant for, and why it is implemented the way it is. But the "regular user" will just be confused.

Pretty sure it's not possible, you have to use uigetfile.
