dialog.loadFromFile
| Syntax |
dialog.loadFromFile (path)
|
| Params |
path is the full path to a file that contains a DLOG resource with ID = 25000, and a DITL resource with the same ID.
|
| Action |
Copies the DLOG and DITL into the resource fork of Frontier.root.
|
| Returns |
The resource ID in Frontier.root's resource fork assigned to the DLOG/DITL.
|
| Examples |
dialog.run (dialog.loadFromFile ("System:Fun Dialog"), 1, @itemHitCallback) » true
|
| Platform Notes |
This verb is only implemented in the Mac OS version of Frontier.
|
| Notes |
If the file doesn't exist, dialog.loadFromFile checks in the Dialogs folder in your Frontier folder. If it exists there, it's loaded. If you're publishing a script that uses a dialog run from the Dialogs folder, we ask that you append your initials to the end of the file name to help eliminate conflicting names. Use this verb when a dialog may run several times from within a single script. Never depend on your dialog being loaded from run to run. If a dialog can only run once within a script, use dialog.runFromFile because it is simpler. dialog.loadFromFile is implemented as a Frontier script, so you can examine the source code to see how it works.
