Question about using multiple dialogs

[ardura]

I want to have different save/load dialogs for different things in my application. Is there a way I can sync the directory between different instances?

I'm trying to fix navigating to the same directory to save that I opened from in different dialogs. I've been trying to figure this out but haven't been able to due to the PathBuf struct used in egui_file not allowing copy, and some workarounds I tried like Arc + Mutex have made things way more complex than they probably need to be. I'm curious if anyone else has gotten something like this working.

This might be accomplished by listening to directory changed events but I'm not sure how cross-platform that would be.

[edit] This looks promising: https://github.com/notify-rs/notify

I think that's a good solution, however I think I'll just deal with having to navigate once for open and once for save so it remains cross platform. Great crate!
