File Explorer

The File Explorer component displays a filesystem tree to the user. It can be rooted at any folder, even network folders. It can also filter the types of files that are displayed by their file extension (For example, "pdf"). The path to the file that the user selects in the tree is exposed in the bindable property Selected Path.

This component is typically used in conjuction with the PDF Viewer component, in order to create a PDF viewing window. This is very useful for viewing things like maintenance manuals from within your project. To use this component to drive a PDF Viewer component, follow these steps:
