applescript choose file title

I have got a choose file in my applescript. How do I change the title of the Choose a File window that comes up. I am aware of with prompt, but it doesn't change the title.

Edit: ulvund answered I'm afraid with prompt is the best you can do, but are there any other ways to get a choose file without applescript? Also, are there any hacks?

Edit 2: Red_Menace answered (look below) but are there any good tutorials on how to do this in Cocoa-Applescript?

P.S. Look at my comments.

Edit 3: I have put this into another question.

Solution

  • The dialog in plain AppleScript doesn't have that option, but you can access various Cocoa methods in Snow Leopard and Lion using AppleScriptObjC. In Lion, you can create a Cocoa-AppleScript Applet from the template in the AppleScript Editor, then create your own dialog, for example using NSOpenPanel.
