ADOBE DIRECTOR 11.0 990 Scripting Dictionary Note: _player.searchCurrentFolder is available only in Author and Projector runModes and is not available in the Plugin runMode. Example This statement displays the status of the searchCurrentFolder property in the Message window. The result is 1, which is the numeric equivalent of TRUE: -- Lingo syntax put(_player.searchCurrentFolder) // JavaScript syntax put(_player.searchCurrentFolder); See also Player searchPathList Usage -- Lingo syntax _player.searchPathList // JavaScript syntax _player.searchPathList; Description Player property; a list of paths that Director searches when trying to find linked media such as digital video, GIFs, bitmaps, or sound files. Read/write. Each item in the list of paths is a fully qualified pathname as it appears on the current platform at runtime. The value of searchPathList is a linear list that you can manipulate the same as any other list by using commands such as add(), addAt(), append(), deleteAt(), and setAt(). The default value is an empty list. URLs should not be used as file references in the search paths. Adding a large number of paths to searchPaths slows searching. Try to minimize the number of paths in the list. Note: This property will function on all subsequent movies after being set. Because the current movie's assets have already been loaded, changing the setting will not affect any of these assets. Example This statement displays the paths that Director searches when resolving filenames: -- Lingo syntax trace(_player.searchPathList) // JavaScript syntax trace(_player.searchPathList); The following statement assigns two folders to searchPaths in Windows: -- Lingo syntax _player.searchPathList = ["C:\Director\Projects\", "D:\CDROM\Sources\"] // JavaScript syntax
