Re: How to implement a MultiFileLoader?

Hello Geertjan,

thank You for Your reply! I've not noticed before, my DataObject is 
already a MultiDataObject, so it should have sufficient support.

However, how can I make the "brothers" invisible? And also, how can I 
make the subfolder invisible?

When creating my file type, I got a MultiDataObject (without the 
necessary methods for working with multiple files), but no 
MultiFileLoader (so I guess some default implementation is used).

Kind regards
Peter
