◆ support_multi_dotted_extensions() [1/2]

virtual bool xtd::forms::file_dialog::support_multi_dotted_extensions ( ) const
virtualnoexcept

Gets whether the dialog box supports displaying and saving files that have multiple file name extensions.Gets or sets whether the dialog box supports displaying and saving files that have multiple file name extensions.

Returns
true if the dialog box supports multiple file name extensions; otherwise, false. The default is false.
Remarks
Sometimes users must open and save files that use multiple file name extensions. For example, the application manifest files used by the click_once deployment technology end in the complex file name extension ".exe.manifest". Setting this property to true enables you to set the FFilter property to a multi-dotted extension.
If support_multi_dotted_extensions is false, and you assign a multi-dotted extension to Filter, derived controls such as save_file_dialog will only use the last extension in the string. For example, ".manifest" will be used instead of ".exe.manifest".
