Voxglitch Groovebox cannot load a folder containing several WAV files, Cardinal VST3 (main) 23.02, REAPER v6.79, Windows 11

[GBaige]

Once again Cardinal VST3 (main) 23.02, REAPER v6.79, Windows 11, issue is not present in VCV Rack 2

Right-clicking on the Voxglitch Groovebox module and clicking on "Load first 8 WAV files from a folder" opens a File Explorer window; however, rather than being able to select the desired folder, the File Explorer instead enters the folder. The user can attempt to load a file inside the folder, but nothing will happen.

@clone45 might want to take a look at this.

Thanks! I'm a bit busy right now, but I'll try to address it soon!

@GBaige latest nightly builds have Voxglitch updated to latest version, can you test again?

[edit: actually I can confirm that it doesn't work ... @clone45 ? :D ]

It does work in VCV. It seems our filebrowser is not selecting folder location but a single file? filebrowser mode seems different. Perhaps something in our async-dialog configuration.

@dromer Certainly, I'll put some time aside tomorrow to dig into this. I appreciate the heads-up.

Ok this fixes it for me:

This the step you meant from chat @falkTX ?

[falkTX]

yes, but that 2nd line can be simplified since "dir" is already a std::string type
