Does anyone know how I would go about duplicating a file chooser to work on a tree of data items.

I cant seem to find the source code for filechooser

Alternatively is their a way of building a virtual file system that I can point filechooser at.

Cheers

snuv - did you find a solution? I've been contemplating doing something similar - use the node based gui from a file chooser to display data that isn't file or folder based.
 
Did you consider using a tree.

Maybe it's not worth dealing with FileChoosers if you're not planning to display files ...

Cheers,

I havent found a solution yet.

The data structure I'm using will have a very similar structure to a file system and I like the way main control of the file chooser works.
