<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
GtkFileChooserButton

<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
A button to launch a file selection dialog

<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
The #GtkFileChooserButton is a widget that lets the user select a
file.  It implements the #GtkFileChooser interface.  Visually, it is a
file name with a button to bring up a #GtkFileChooserDialog.
The user can then use that dialog to change the file associated with
that button.  This widget does not support setting the "select-multiple"
property to %TRUE.
</para>

<example>
<title>Create a button to let the user select a file in /etc</title>
<programlisting>
{
  GtkWidget *button;

  button = gtk_file_chooser_button_new (_("Select a file"),
                                        GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN);
  gtk_file_chooser_set_current_folder (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (button),
                                       "/etc");
}
</programlisting>
</example>

<para>
The #GtkFileChooserButton supports the #GtkFileChooserAction<!--
-->s %GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN and %GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SELECT_FOLDER.
</para>

<important>
<para>
The #GtkFileChooserButton will ellipsize the label,
and thus will thus request little horizontal space.  To give the button
more space, you should call gtk_size_request_get_preferred_size(),
gtk_file_chooser_button_set_width_chars(), or pack the button in
such a way that other interface elements give space to the widget.
