Hi!
Through a global ExtendScript object (dollar ($) object) can get the filename of the current script: $.fileName.
But when running the script through ScripBay the $.fileName value is a number (which increases with each new script launch).
Can I somehow get the filename of the running script?
If not, can you fix it in the next release of the application?
Many thanks!

Hmm.

I assume the problem is because the script is not actually being run from the file, but rather from a string in memory. I'll see if I can fake this.

I just tested in ScriptBay, and it seems to get the correct fileName.

 

Are you talking about running from the editor, or from the file list?
