OK, I see this YT item: https://mcneel.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/issue/MR-3251
But the issue has been closed, fixed for Mac 6 WIP, however it doesn’t appear to be fixed in 5.5.2 - in any case I can’t get it to return anything but None here.
So that means that any script that needs to choose a folder is now out for the future of Mac V5? That isn’t a very happy situation (to put it nicely)…
Hi Mitch, not sure if this works as a temp workaround, i cannot test it on Mac:
import Eto
import Rhino
def DoSomething():
dialog = Eto.Forms.SelectFolderDialog()
dialog.Directory = None
dialog.Title = "Choose a folder"
rc = dialog.ShowDialog(None)
if rc != Eto.Forms.DialogResult.Ok: return rc
print dialog.Directory
DoSomething()
And @Alain or @curtisw, if you could help here: Why is it not possible to pass the parent window like this:
parent = Rhino.UI.RhinoEtoApp.MainWindow
c = dialog.ShowDialog(parent)
it gave me a “non implemented” error on Windows. I’ve tried all kind of variations eg. Rhino.RhinoApp.MainWindow() gives me this error:
Message: expected Window, got RhinoWindow
the purpose of passing the parent window is to make the dialog block Rhino while a folder is chosen. If i pass None as shown above, this does not happen and Rhino is still accessable.

As far as I understood from the bug report linked above, ETO is not supported in Rhino 5 for Mac…
This goes deeper than merely a scripting issue and unfortunately it’s not a small change.
Well, it WAS working in the past. The only thing that was wrong was that the title and/or message arguments weren’t working… I have past scripts that worked with this exception…
I missed (forgot) that it was working on Rhino for mac os 5 before. I’ll take a look at how it worked.
Can I ask, is rs.BrowseForFolder title= still not working as expected? I still get ‘Select Folder’ at the top.
@Helvetosaur or am I imagining it?
OpenFilenames is okay though.
Thanks for the info
