Filemanager options

[Rutger Scheepens]

Hi,

I am evaluating the Blazor FileManager control and have the following question:

Could you provide a list of options that I can give to the FileManager component?

I have found a few options (AllowDragAndDrop, AllowMultiSelection, path), but I guess there should be more options available that I cannot seem to find in any of the documentation.

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

With kind regards,

Rutger

Thank you very much for the answer, this got me a lot further.

I am now having issues with one other thing which I hope you can help me with:

I am trying to open the FileManager and have a certain file preselected. I thought I could do that by setting Path and SelectedItems but that does not seem to work.

Could you please show me an example how I should achieve this?

Many thanks in advance!

With kind regards,

Rutger

Hi Rutger, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion support. 

 

We have looked into your query on initializing the FileManager component loaded with file/folders with pre-selection. This can be achieved by using the selectedItems property of File Manager component. If you select any file/folder which reside under any folder, then you can achieve it by selecting the item using selectedItems property in fileOpen event of File Manager. 

 

For your convenience, we have prepared a simple sample of File Manager loaded with pre-selected folders.

Hi Rutger, 

 

Sorry for the inconvenience. 

 

We have missed to share you the Blazor sample with the suggested solution in our last update. Please, download the Blazor application of File Manager with pre-selected files using the solution which shared in our previous update. 

 

 

<SfFileManager SelectedItems="@selectItems"> 

    <FileManagerAjaxSettings Url="/api/SampleData/FileOperations"   DownloadUrl="/api/SampleData/Download" UploadUrl="/api/SampleData/Upload"  GetImageUrl="/api/SampleData/GetImage"> 

    </FileManagerAjaxSettings> 

</SfFileManager> 

 

@code{ 

    string[] selectItems = new string[] {"Videos", "Music"}; 

}
