Loading a figure by script

cimar

Hello,

is there a better way to load a figure (in my case Genesis 8) by script? I'm currently loading the dev version (which is what I want) by using it's absolute path with DzContentMgr.openNativeFile. But I have to well, use the absolute path and the window asking me if I want to load a new figure pops up, which is useful if I want to load a figure manually, but I'd rather skip when using the script. Is there a better way?

There are methods to get an absolute path from a relative path, I think http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/object_index/contentmgr_dz#a_1af1e5fa8d53b1a306a0b057ada765ffd0 is the one you want (note that it returns an array, since there might be multiple copies of the file).

Ah, neat! That's useful. Thanks!
