I am having trouble using an alias in the plugins folder. I've tried both OS X native aliases and unix-style symlinks. Symlinks used to work in MC (though I could never get them to work in Rev) but now they don't work in MC either. Anyone else?
This has not changed from b5, which has been out for nearly 6 months. The routine needed for checking the initialization properties must open the stack file to get at those properties, and I believe that while "open stack" honors aliases "get the <whateverProperty> of stack" does not.
There may be a way to use aliasReference for that. Care to add support for that?
Since MC lets you choose the plugin folder, I've never used aliases since. But I certainly wouldn't mind if someone wants to add support for them, or hone in on the engine issue which prevents them from being used automatically.
Also, in the "programming plugins" text file, there is a reference to a Revolution property:
"In Revolution, the opening mode is defined for each plugin through "Plugin Settings". To make MetaCard's plugins compatible with Revolution, you need to set the custom property:"
And no property is named. Don't keep us guessing. ;)
Robert, got time to finish that?
