Open/Save Picture Dialogs

[maxm74]

What do you think if I add two Open/Save Dialogs for images that use our Reader/Writer (since fcl-image does not allow us to replace them)? I have already modified the TBCRoundedImage control to also draw a TBGRABitmap and added the TypeNames in brabitmaptypes my last commit

That's an interesting idea. There are some things to consider though. File dialogs are much OS dependent and requires a lot of investment. So this would make sense if it is used in a significant project where there are people to take care of updates and customizations for each system. You can see for example in LazPaint how intricate this can be.

I noticed that in Windows, even if I put different controls in the dialog, they are ignored and the system dialog is always displayed. The only thing that is changed are the filters, now there are ours.
I am installing VirtualBox and OpenSuse so I can see how it behaves with gtk/qt, and in the meantime I am porting my projects and testing some controls that I have modified. Thanks.

Oh I understand, you're looking into doing minimal changes, only using our image readers. This could indeed be a sustainable code.

I changed the Dialog, now it's prettier.
As I thought on Linux we can modify it to our liking, tested with gtk, it must be tested with other widgetsets (but with small adjustments it should work).
On Windows I have an old trick in mind to do it, I'll try it on Monday .
