Current Path

I am trying to use the "Score.WebExport(...)" method.
I want the exported file to be saved in the same folder as the current ".myr" source file, but it goes to the script source file instead.
Manual says:
Quote:Note about current path
When a script is launched, the current path is set to the script source file path.
When a script ends, the current path is restored. |
|
How do I gain access to that path that will be restored when the script ends?
P.S. The "Score.Save" and "Score.MusicExport" work the way I want them to, but WebExport is different.

Thank you, that would be handy but how can my script find the full name and path of the currently loaded music file?
I don't want the user to have to go through a dialog window (which would be a possible source of error.)
It is obvious that that information is available somewhere, since Score.Save() and other methods do save to the correct path.

I think that Jean-Louis obtains his variable "fileName" from "score.FileName" (as I do).

That's it! I feel like an idiot! It never occurred to me that the path would be an attribute of the Score object.
And, even better, Score.PathName seems to be exactly what I need.
I still wonder why Score.WebExport behaves so differently from Score.MusicExport but I'll quit while I'm ahead.
