Hi,
i have a FileDialog. After a file is selected, i check if the file is good, if not i want to open the FileDialog again with popup_centered. But it is not showing up. If i inspect it in the Editor while running it, i can see that it is not visible.
EDIT:
Some more info…:
var Dialog : FileDialog = FileDialog.new()
func _ready() -> void:
make_load_dialog()
func make_load_dialog() -> void:
add_child(Dialog)
Dialog.access = FileDialog.ACCESS_FILESYSTEM
Dialog.mode = FileDialog.MODE_OPEN_FILE
Dialog.resizable = true
Dialog.popup_exclusive = true
Dialog.connect("file_selected", self, "path_selected")
Dialog.get_cancel().connect("pressed", get_tree(), "quit")
Dialog.get_close_button().connect("pressed", get_tree(), "quit")
[...]
print("popup") # to see when it should pop up
Dialog.call_deferred("popup")
[...]
I suppose it’s not working because Godot closes the popup after having fired the file_selected signal. So calling popup_centered from within the function handling that signal won’t have any effect.
Perhaps you could use call_deferred("popup_centered") instead?
Sounds very logical, but does unfortunatly not work.

Well, that works for me. I reproduced your issue without call_deferred, and adding it fixed it: it gets closed but because it reopens right away it looks like it remains open. Maybe your code sample is missing a detail?
extends Node
var Dialog : FileDialog = FileDialog.new()
func _ready() -> void:
make_load_dialog()
func make_load_dialog() -> void:
add_child(Dialog)
Dialog.access = FileDialog.ACCESS_FILESYSTEM
Dialog.mode = FileDialog.MODE_OPEN_FILE
Dialog.resizable = true
Dialog.popup_exclusive = true
Dialog.connect("file_selected", self, "path_selected")
Dialog.get_cancel().connect("pressed", get_tree(), "quit")
Dialog.get_close_button().connect("pressed", get_tree(), "quit")
Dialog.popup()
func path_selected(path: String):
print("popup") # to see when it should pop up
Dialog.call_deferred("popup")

Ok, on a normal node it works as intended.
I have the FileDialog in a script, that is autoloaded.
Can you please try, if you can get in working on an autoloaded script?

Tried on an autoload (which is just another node in the tree), using the same script, works perfectly the same.
