Project Jedi delivers for Delphi a nice customized IDE FileOpenDialog ( -> open *.dpr ).

It has a special feature to add favorite directories to a Listbox at the bottom of the Opendialog.

Think of c:\lazarus and c:\projects\lazarus as i have. I have to jump a lot around .. between Lazarus examples and own projects for example.

I don't know how they did it , but the source is there and we only need that for windows.

Gtk Opendialog on linux has that feature allready.

Wouldn't that be useful?!

Yes. AFAIK the customdrawn widgetset provides their own file dialogs. Maybe the IDE can be extended to allow registering own file dialogs.
