I am not in any way tempted to ascribe supernatural powers to any version of CCL - though I have at times been tempted to ascribe supernatural powers to you and Matthew ;^)

Changing the presentation style (whatever it's called) does cause the directories to populate, and to remain populated when the style is changed back. However, subsequent calls to ccl::choose-file-dialog still show the same empty-directories-until-presentation-style-is-changed issue.

It would still be useful to know why this only manifests with ccl::choose-file-dialog and not with File:Open… (nor with any other application), but that's just idle curiosity…

Maybe its because the deprecated #/runModalForDirectory:file:types: is causing problems under Mountain Lion even for apps like CCL that are not sandboxed.

warmest regards,

Ralph
