Try these various methods
on getVolumeName
noFX = xtra("FileXtra3").new()
tempPath = noFX.fx_FolderGetSpecialPath("kDesktopFolderType")
--shows entire path
put tempPath
--determines location of Mac path delimiter, :
pos = offset(":",tempPath)
--gets part of entire path that corresponds only to the volume
myRoot = tempPath.char[1..pos]
put myRoot
noFX = 0
boFX = xtra("FileXtra3").new()
--if you want to create the new folder on the desktop:
put boFX.fx_FolderCreate(myRoot & "Desktop Folder:newFolder")
-- 1
put boFX.fx_FolderExists(myRoot & "Desktop Folder:newFolder")
-- 1
--if you want to create the new folder on the drive:
put boFX.fx_FolderCreate(myRoot & "newFolder")
-- 1
put boFX.fx_FolderExists(myRoot & "newFolder")
-- 1
--also look into this:
put boFX.fx_VolumesToList
--["Macintosh HD:"]
boFX = 0
end
