gtkFileChooserGetCurrentFolder {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gtkFileChooserGetCurrentFolder

### Description

Gets the current folder of `chooser` as a local filename. See `gtkFileChooserSetCurrentFolder`.

### Usage

    gtkFileChooserGetCurrentFolder(object)

### Arguments

``object`` | a `GtkFileChooser`

### Details

Note that this is the folder that the file chooser is currently displaying (e.g. "/home/username/Documents"), which is not the same as the currently-selected folder if the chooser is in `GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_SELECT_FOLDER` mode (e.g. "/home/username/Documents/selected-folder/". To get the currently-selected folder in that mode, use `gtkFileChooserGetUri` as the usual way to get the selection. Since 2.4

### Value

[character] the full path of the current folder, or `NULL` if the current path cannot be represented as a local filename. This function will also return `NULL` if the file chooser was unable to load the last folder that was requested from it; for example, as would be for calling `gtkFileChooserSetCurrentFolder` on a nonexistent folder.
