I want my NSOpenPanel to show all files - same as the Finder does,

Is there a way to accomplish this?
Kind regards,

Yes, just set AppleShowAllFiles to YES in your app's defaults.
I just added this to my app delegate:
+ (void)initialize
{
NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSDictionary *appDefaults = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:
@"YES" forKey: @"AppleShowAllFiles"];
[defaults registerDefaults:appDefaults];
}
and now everything works as expected.
Thanks very much for this suggestion!
By the way, this is documented in "Mac OS X Leopard Developer Release
Notes
Cocoa Application Framework":
"NSSavePanel and NSOpenPanel can once again show hidden files by
setting a user default. For instance you can use 'defaults write -g
AppleShowAllFiles 1' to display hidden files in the panels."
Kind regards,
Gerriet.
