Yet, if I do this in the Message box:
put route66
I get the filepath as one would expect.

So, I have corrected the specialFolderPath as per your instructions.
But I am still going wrong as my source for the imgData of img "p1" is
still
listed asroute66p1.png . . .

In the IDE, specialFolderPath("resources") points to the folder
containing the working stack. In a standalone it points to the folder
containing files you've included in the Copy Files pane of the
standalone builder.
Therefore, there will never be a folder
specialFolderPath("resources") & "/Desktop/..." unless you have
created a Desktop folder inside the one holding your stack. The
correct path would be specialFolderPath("resources") &
"/Obfuscated/May 2018/assets/img/"

I have a stack containing a series of images that are 'empty' images
with their
sources set to an external folder.
Now in my stackScript I have this:
|global route66 on preOpenStack put specialFolderPath("resources") &
"/Desktop/Obfuscated/May 2018/assets/img/" into route66 go to card
"TITLE" end preOpenStack|
and in my cardScript I have this:
|on preOpenCard set the lockScreen to true -------- set the filename of
img "p1" to empty ------- set the filename of img "p1" to (route66 &
"c1.png") set the blendlevel of img "p1" to 0 -------- wait 3 ticks set
the lockScreen to false end preOpenCard so, WHY cannot I see the target
image, merely a horrible grey square? Richmond. |
