This function does not do anything in Vectorworks 2015 and later. This is because the resource system changed. See more at: [[Vectorworks VWR Resources]]
As of Vectorworks 2015, resources are accessed directly by specifying full resource path (resource identifier) and using GetVWRString
Pre Vectorworks 2015: Sets the active resource file for a script. The resource file is opened for the duration of script execution.
The name of the resource file should be specified without the file extension.
FUNCTION SetVSResourceFile(fileName : STRING): BOOLEAN;def vs.SetVSResourceFile(fileName):
return BOOLEAN| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fileName | STRING | The name of the resource file to be opened. |
Specify the file name without an extension. However, the file must exist in the plug-ins folder WITH an extension. Use .rsr on Windows and .rsrc on the Mac.
