• Editor
  • Regular file browser

Hi. Is there a possibility that you (devs) would make some option in settings for using regular file browser only? I have to open and export like 100 old files today, so none of them are listed in "Files" and "Folders" in "Open project". Each time I have to click browse. After I edit them all, the Files and Folders lists will be VERY long so it's still not useful to me, I don't work on one project for long..

What I do in that case is, when the Spine file dialog is opened, i just press space which will bring up the OS file dialog. Super quick.

We'll consider a setting for people who hate the favorite dialog showing for Open Project. Pharan hates it too! Why can't we have nice things?!

In the meantime, Mario's spacebar tip is a good one. So, ctrl+O, spacebar and you are at Open Project with a native file dialog. You can also treat the Spine menu like most Windows (apologies if you aren't on Windows, but this tip still works) menus by accessing them using alt+F, then a letter to open the menu item. Eg, alt+F, O, spacebar. It's more keys, but many people are used to alt+F, O.

However, Erika is right that exporting a 100 Spine projects is best done with a script. Here is an example:
spine-runtimes/export.sh at 3.6
We can assist you in writing your own script, which depends on what OS you are using.
