Post processing plugin: multiline text edit field

[ag74 0]

Hello,

 

I will to develop a post processing plugin to insert gcode at a specific layer of height.

When declaring available settings in the function getSettingDataString() is there a specific type for multi-line text field ?

I know there's "str" but it won't be usefull to enter gcode since it's a simple edit box.

No, unfortunately, there is not.

Is there a type that will create a kind of file selector filed ?

The user can type a file name or select it using a open dialog box...

A 'str' can be used to type a filename, but there is no file-picker/file open dialog box for a setting.

Ok I know str can be used to type a file name but the user can make mistake when typing it.

Thanks for your help I'll find a solution.
