Wesley Burrows Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) Is it possible to save a document to a different file without user intervention that will work in the background? I currently have one, File Name - Master.vwx which is my WIP always current version. I'm writing a script that will update the Revision # & Date in the title block (I have this working), but then I want it to save the document with File Name - V#.vwx in a /revisions folder or similar. I can get it to sort of do this with the SaveActiveDocument function, however, Vectorworks automatically opens the new file, which I don't want. I want to keep the Master WIP version loaded. I tried adding a second SaveActiveDocument call after this to re-save the original file name and re-open it, but this fails. I assume it fails because that document already exists and you can't overwrite it. Is it possible to force the function to overwrite an existing document? Basically I want the functionality of Save A Copy As without user intervention if possible. Anyone have any suggestions? Edited August 28, 2017 by Wes Burrows 1 Quote Link to comment
