JSFL fl.saveDocumentAs();

I am writing a JSFL script that resizes flas and saves various versions, with appened names.

I can get a "Save As" prompt to pop up using fl.saveDocumentAs();

But I can't seem to get flash to generate a new name for the FLA.

I just want to save "document.fla" as "document_foo.fla" ,(and later "document_qux.fla"), preferably without interrupting the script with a "save as" prompt.

Solution

  • thanks, just using fl.saveDocument() works. I used this to rename it and switch Flash's focus to the new version:

    var docURI= fl.documents[0].pathURI;// get name&location of current document
var appendName = "_appended.fla";
docURI=docURI.replace(".fla",appendName);//create appended name for new version
//(do stuff to my fla)
fl.saveDocument(fl.documents[0] ,docURI);//save as new doc name
fl.openDocument(docURI);//open this newly saved document
