sceneReport script question

[dstripinis]

Wow. Looks like a paragraph went missing from pg 424. gotta have that errata'd

Because there is no built in facility to create a file using a file dialog, you need to point to a pre-existing file. the easy way to do this in windows or Mac is to right-click and go "new-Text document" and rename it to an html.

I just tried it out with the cd version of the script and it worked here.

Let me know if you have any more questions

Thanks for the reply David!

I am doing as you suggested and my work procedure is as follows

1-I open up the maya file-filenamexxx I want a scene report of

2-I type in sceneReport

3-Open file window pops up whereupon I select filenamexxx.html

4-Maya freezes and nothing is created in filenamexxx.html

I am using maya5.0.1 on a network..windows2000

Any ideas?

ps-if you select a maya file...which is what I thought originally I was supposed to...it converts the file -in my case from 11 mb to 538k...tried to save as html and open but kept opening up in maya...You should warn users about that I think ?

Thanks
Andrew
