A bug with inputfile():
Try this:
::text inputfile("<curpath>",,"choose");
Select one
file in the resulting dialog so that the filename gets written to the textbox beside the filetype dropdown, then change folders.
Do you get a msg saying:
Code: Select all
<previously selected filename>
This files does not exist.
Create the file?

In my case the folder gets changed and the file name stays in the textbox but as long as I do not click "open" nothing else happens.

Select a file, then double-click a folder in the same location. What happens now?

Is this a trick question? Or do you really want me to repeat myself?

No, I thought you'd used the keyboard to change folders. But I still get that msg.
Here's what I do:
Code: Select all
::text inputfile("<xydata>",,"choose");
• select "action.dat" with mouse single-click
• "action.dat" appears in the filename textbox.
• double-click "Pane" folder
• that msg appears.
Code: Select all
action.dat
This file does not exist. ...
(I'm running Weight.1 if its any help)

Did what you said...
... the "Panes" folder opens, action.dat is still shown in "Filename".
No error message
So I understand autocarts note

alright. I'll chalk it up a problem with my current setup then.

For comparison you could try the same actions using Windows' Run or Notepad's open dialogs.

First thing I tried. This only occurs in XY.
Also happens in fresh, and in a different copy of XY.

Not just you... I can reproduce on an 8.1 system here.

rename [mode (b|r|s|k|e)], pattern, [preview (p)], [itemlist], [flags=1], [illegalcharsreplacewith]
With preview it pops an ugly error dialog if the preview-dialog is canceled or escaped.
Please make it return a value instead so that the script-writer can react to it in the way he/she wishes to.
Plus the user should be able to escape it without being bothered by an ugly error dialog.
Thank you in advance, Don.

Passing SC
Report an itemlist containing a drive causes XY to crash.
Code: Select all
Echo Report('{Name}',"<xydrive>");
Introduced in v13.70.0123 when
report gained support for extra tags.

Mine doesn't crash, but I don't think I get correct returns either.
text report("{Name}", <xydrive>); //returns '<Drive: C:>'
should return drive label, right?
Edit: now it started crashing. Not everytime though.

I believe that is what it has always returned, so it is technically correct. In the very least that is what it returns back in v13.70.0122.

Odd, here it crashes every single time.
EDIT: Seems like there's more oddities actually. Running:
Returns only the drive labels when viewing Computer. But passing in a drive as the second parameter causes it to crash.
Guess I have some more experimentation to do.

And this:
Code: Select all
text report("{#}, {Name}, {Type}, {Total Size}, {Used Space}, {Free Space}, {Free %}, {Per Cluster}, {Vol Serial}, {File System}","<xydrive>");
text report("{#}, {Name}, {Type}, {Total Size}, {Used Space}, {Free Space}, {Free %}, {Per Cluster}, {Vol Serial}, {File System}","C:\");
text report("{#}, {Name}, {Type}, {Total Size}, {Used Space}, {Free Space}, {Free %}, {Per Cluster}, {Vol Serial}, {File System}","C:");
//returns `1, <Drive: C:>, , {Total Size}, {Used Space}, {Free Space}, {Free %}, {Per Cluster}, {Vol Serial}, {File System}`
text report(,"<xydrive>");
//returns `1 <Drive: C:> `
Drive Report broke down in more ways than one. Intersetingly, selecting a drive in list and execing text report(,1); seems to work well.
