FileSelect works just fine in WebUI, BUT it pops up over the AIMMS developer instance. How can I force this to pop up over the WebUI interface so the user doesn’t have to hunt for it (or be confused when they don’t see it and WebUI won’t respond)? In AIMMS PRO, does this pop up in the WebUI. Or can you even select files in AIMMS PRO? Thanks!

FileSelect interacts with the Windows File Explorer and the dialog shows up in Developer/WinUI only. You cannot force this to pop in WebUI. Can be used when you launch a WinUI app from PRO.

The WebUI alternative for FileSelect is to use the upload widget. https://documentation.aimms.com/webui/upload-widget.html#upload-widget
