Since
TGUI 1.1

Reimplemented from tgui::ChildWindow.

◆ clone()

Widget::Ptr tgui::FileDialog::clone ( ) const
nodiscardoverrideprotectedvirtual

Makes a copy of the widget if you don't know its exact type.

This function should only be used when you don't know the type of the widget. If you know what kind of widget you are copying, you should use the copy function.
