FileDialogs: Make the ExplorerControl usage as standalone control possible.
FileDialogs are constructed by RadWindow and ExplorerControl as its content. 

Explorer control holds navigation tree, autocomplete, filtering combobox, main pane for viewing fodler and files, search box, breadcrumb. You can check all visual parts in the following help article:

http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radfiledialogs/visual-structure

Users might need to put the ExplorerControl in non-window parts of their application (for example in docked RadPane of RadDocking. Also, they might need to override OK/Cancel commands for that purpose.

Hello Giovanni,

To use the ExplorerControl as a stand-alone element, add the following namespace:

xmlns:fileDialogs="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.FileDialogs;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.FileDialogs"

Then, it can be used as follows:

<Window x:Class="ExplorerControlExample.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
        xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
        xmlns:local="clr-namespace:ExplorerControlExample" xmlns:fileDialogs="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.FileDialogs;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.FileDialogs"
        mc:Ignorable="d"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800">
    <Grid>
        <fileDialogs:ExplorerControl CurrentDirectoryPath="C:\Program Files"/>
    </Grid>
</Window>

The produced result is as follows:

More information about the ExplorerControl can be found at the following article:

WPF FileDialogs - ExplorerControl - Telerik UI for WPF

With this being said, I have attached a sample project for your convenience. To test it, add a reference to the Xaml version of the required assemblies for the RadFileDialogs controls.

Hi,

any update on this feature request?
I would like to embed the ExplorerControl as page of a RadWizard.

Or maybe you can provide RadWizardPages with the ExplorerControl functionality as part of your libraries.

Regards,

Benjamin
