Anyway, I know there is no trim function in transcript and I've read the documents and came up with the following code.

put the text of me into RText
answer RText
repeat for each ...

I put the wait in there to test the following:


export image "ImageFile" to file "Thumbnail.png" as PNG set the filetype to PNGf


When I use the above code the result is the image without the ink changes. The wait didn't help.

Is there another way to do this? Is something wrong with my export ...

That is what I thought at first, but I'm unable to get this information from the result. Do you have an example?

Here is what I'm testing with:

ask file "Please name the file:" with type "CSV File|csv|CSV" or type "TAB File|tab|TAB" as sheet

if it is empty then
answer "it is empty"
else ...

ask file - user selected type

Is there a way to determine the user selected format of the types provided to the ask file command?

I'm trying to make a "save as" option for exporting data tables. I know I can work around the issue if there is not a way of getting the selection from the ask file dialog, but it would be simpler ...

Mark,

Thanks for the information. I have an active license, but since 2.6.1 is the latest release for Linux, I just signed up for the Beta test program. Hopefully I can get a new beta version to see if the stack compatibility is the issue I'm having.

I've downloaded the three altPlugins from runrev. I'm only interested in the altSQLite plugin, but I can't figure out how to get any of them to work.

I thought just opening the stack would do, but studio gives me a message of "There ...
