    FilePicker Class
    In This Topic
    A control offering a TextBox that allows to edit a file selection & a Browse Button that allows to open the System Explorer in order to manually pick one or more files.
    Syntax
    'Usage
     
    
    Dim instance As FilePicker
    Remarks

    It is possible to determine if the FilePicker allows only one file to be selected at a time or rather permits multiple files to be selected at once. For more information on this possibility, see the IsMultiSelect property.

    A filter can also be added so that the System Explorer only displays specific file types. For more information on this topic, see the Filter property.

    Example

    The following code would display this control:

    <xctk:FilePicker Watermark="Select a file"
                     WidthRequest="175"
                     BorderBrush="Orange"
                     BorderThickness="3"
                     CornerRadius="5"
                     Filter="Images"/>
