Re: lingo-l (OT) Mac: move up a folder
You want to do that in Lingo? I didn´t think it mattered what you write nowadays. It works in authoring mode on Dir MX on the mac for me whatever I use. To avoid potential problems, I always use ../ in Director for both platforms. It works without problems IME. The @, the applicationPath, the moviePath and all that is another story. Hi All, Given that ..\ will navigate up one directory from the current one on Windows, what is the Mac equivalent? Is it as simple as ..:? And is it the same for = OS9 and OSX?

Re: lingo-l (OT) Mac: move up a folder
You want to do that in Lingo? I'm wanting to construct a full path to feed to FileXtra4 (which doesn't support '@' and variants), but having given it some more thought all I need to do is drop a directory when re-constructing the path at run time thus by-passing any need for ..\ or whatever.
