Selecting Folders using QT5 QTFileDialog

Following the documentation here we see that it is pretty easy for us to select a folder and return a string of the selected file. This is the easiest way to collect folders and print the value into a textfield:

QString fileName = QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory(this, tr("Open Directory"), QDir::currentPath(), QFileDialog::ShowDirsOnly | QFileDialog::DontResolveSymlinks); ui->textEdit->setText(fileName); 
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
