Hi
I have a problem with the director importFileInto lingo method.
I am using lingo to import an image file into a cast member. The image is located in a folder called 'images' which is in the same directory as the director movie. I am using the following code:
importFileInto member "castMember", "images/picture.jpg"
This works fine on windows, but when I try it on the mac, it fails to load the image into the castMember. This method works on the mac if I locate the image in the ROOT directory and use
importFileInto member "castMember", "picture.jpg"
but it doesn't work when the image is in sub-directory.
Should the path look different on a mac?
I have tried images\picture.jpg and images.picture.jpg.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Simon.

Hello everyone,
Just to let you know that I met with my client and successfully created the
windows projector on his mac by dropping the V4MD.x32 xtra into the >
Application:Macromedia Director MX 2004:Configuration:Cross Platform
Resources:Windows:Xtras forlder.
Thanks for all your help particularly ruslan, hans and sean.
I also had a go at creating the mac projector from windoes using the method
outlined here by Hans:
Make a Mac-projector on a PC. Director will tell you that it can't find the
V4MD_carbon.x32, continue with generating the projector.
Then you will get a file called ???.???.hqx.
