Description

I was unable to locate information on how to select a file in the documentation. Could you please assist by providing a file dialog interface in Python? I found a useful reference link for you: https://github.com/aiekick/ImGuiFileDialog.

Implementing this feature would greatly enhance my work.

I would greatly appreciate your assistance, as my current solution is quite messy. Thank you.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the project documentation for any existing file-selection guidance and the linked ImGuiFileDialog reference. Clarify the intended Python-facing interface and how it should fit the viewer before implementation. Done should include a usable file-dialog feature documented for Python users, with behavior matching the agreed scope.
