How can I create a "Save As" item for my project?

To create a "Save As" menu item, we will need to create a copy of the document project in question under a new name, close the current one, and open the new one, just like us Mac folks have come to expect. SuperTalk provides the "ask file" command, which will present the standard "put file" dialog, and will return the name of this new file in the global variable "it". The Xtend project includes an XCMD called "CopyFile", which will take care of the file copying portion of this task. With these two parts, you have pretty much all you need to pull this off - here they are together in an example script which you can use in a menu item in your File menu titled "Save As" (remember to copy the "CopyFile" XCMD to your project): on itemSelect SaveAs end ItemSelect on SaveAs -- Get new file name: ask file "Save this file as:" with the short name of the topWindow if it is empty then exit to SuperCard put it into tNufileName set the cursor to watch -- Get current file name to pass to the external: put value(last word of the long name of this proj) Â into tOldFileName -- Make sure things are saved and compacted: save compact -- Copy the file: close this wd CopyFile tOldFileName, tNewFileName if line 1 of the result is false then -- Error checking answer line 2 of the result exit to SuperCard end if -- Open the new file: open proj tNewFileName end SaveAs
