Directory Path picking widget?

I’m looking for a simple widget that would allow the user to pick a dir path on the file system.
The Fileinput widget doesn’t allow folders, and the Fileselector is too complex.
Is it maybe possible by tweaking one of these?

Ditto!

I would like to see a version of the FileInput widget for the backend. FileSelector is pretty clunky in my opinion (or at least could be modal?) A ‘directory_only’ option would also be nice. I’ll update if I make any progress on these.

Hi @skytaker,

@tubiana showed you can use tkinter input widget as backend may give you the functionality your looking for
