Re: SaveSceneAs strange behaviour

Thanks guys, it was the valid project scenario. Something had changed recently 
in our job structure and the system file was missing.

Cheers!

Tim

maybe this helps - are you trying to save outside an xsi project folder?

Subject: SaveSceneAs strange behaviour


Hi, I had a script that would compile a filepath and run a SaveSceneAs command 
with that filepath correctly parsed.  It used to be that the command in the 
script would save with the correctly and the PPG used to generate the filepath 
would close. Now however when I run the Application.SaveSceneAs() command, I 
get a file pop-up opening on the correct directory with the correct name. This 
is really frustrating because I already know the location and the name and I 
just want it to save, I shouldn't need to reaffirm this.


What's strange is this script didn't use to do this before, it would work 
correctly and just save. Any ideas what's going on?


sCompiledPath = "...\\sceneName.scn"

Application.SaveSceneAs(sCompiledPath, 0)


Regards,


Tim

Hey Tim,

I just checked, and SaveSceneAs works as expected on my side.

The only scenario I can think of where this might happen is if your
compiledPath is either illegal or does not point into a valid Softimage
project.
But if I understood you correctly that can not be your issue as the Save
Dialog opens in the correct target folder and also lets you save
successfully, right?

If you just execute those two lines directly from the Script Editor does it
also behave in the same way?


Cheers, Martin
