        Parameters:
        :   **operator** ([`Operator`](bpy.types.Operator.html#bpy.types.Operator "bpy.types.Operator")) – Operator to call

        This method is used from the operators `invoke` callback
        which must then return `{'RUNNING_MODAL'}`.

        Accepting the file selector will run the operators `execute` callback.

        The following properties are supported:

        `filepath`: `bpy.props.StringProperty(subtype='FILE_PATH')`
        :   Represents the absolute path to the file.

        `dirpath`: `bpy.props.StringProperty(subtype='DIR_PATH')`
        :   Represents the absolute path to the directory.

        `filename`: `bpy.props.StringProperty(subtype='FILE_NAME')`
        :   Represents the filename without the leading directory.

        `files`: `bpy.props.CollectionProperty(type=bpy.types.OperatorFileListElement)`
        :   When present in the operator this collection includes all selected files.

        `filter_glob`: `bpy.props.StringProperty(default="*.ext")`
        :   When present in the operator and it’s not empty,
            it will be used as a file filter (example value: `*.zip;*.py;*.exe`).

        `check_existing`: `bpy.props.BoolProperty()`
        :   If this property is present and set to `True`,
            the operator will warn if the provided file-path already exists
            by highlighting the filename input field in red.

    *classmethod* modal_handler_add(*operator*)
    :   Add a modal handler to the window manager, for the given modal operator (called by invoke() with self, just before returning {‘RUNNING_MODAL’})
