Hi Vince,

Take a look at the 'setRequiredFileType:' instance method in the NSSavePanel Class Reference.
http://tinyurl.com/467rzq


The string you supply as an argument is the extension the file will get (without the period).

To hook this up you can create an instance method 'setFileType:' in your controller class and set that as the target/action for the NSPopupButton you use in the accessoryView, in your 'setFileType:' implementation you can get the 'titleOfSelectedItem' or 'indexOfSelectedItem' from the NSPopupButton (the sender of te action) to determine what the argument of the 'setRequiredFileType:' call to your export panel should be.

Hope this answers your question,

Dirk

I have an accessory view associated with a custom save panel. The accessory
view lists various image formats [jpeg, gif, etc]. Currently after saving,
the files show up as unsupported due the lack of an appended file
extension. Manually inserting the file extension in the save panel prior to
saving ... or editing the saved file by adding the extension after the fact
fixes the problem.
How can I set things up in the savePanel so that it saves out files with the
proper file extension based on the selection in the accessory view/


thanks.
