Back Argh... scripting, you already lost me here. Don't know where to go with that line of scritping hehehe ;) My initial thought was to keep the folder with the scripts, trays etc. outside the workgroup to keep it "clean" and only have installed shaders, plugins etc in the workgroup folder. The other folder that contains all kinds of presets, textures, models, scripts, trays etc. would be outside the workgroup folder, so I can easily update it on the other location(s). And because it's only linked, not installed on the workgroup there's no risk on breaking something. I just want to apply this setup to several locations with one default company interface, but maybe I'm going the wrong way here..... I don't know if this makes any more sence. I'll have a look at this tonight, see if I can find something in the manuals anbout this. Cheers for the replies so far, rob wuijster s-5 multimedia holland

if the toolbars are in your workgroup then
getValue("preferences.data_management.workgroup_appl_path")
Is that what you mean?

Scenario would be opening XSI, choosing the interface, and from within the interface setup the appropiate trays, views etc. would be "build" from the files on the server. But the path in the interface would be a variable to these files instead of a given path. Hope this makes sence. cheers, rob wuijster s-5 multimedia holland

From: owner-xsi@(protected) [mailto:owner-xsi@(protected)] On Behalf Of Rob Wuijster Sent: 27 June 2005 13:57 To: XSI@(protected) Subject: workgroup path in interface for scripts etc. Hi all, Just a quick thought, when I want to add some toolbars in my interface, can I use the %_WGRP_SHADERPLUGINS% variable to look them up on the server?? What I want is to use one/the same interface on a couple of locations, and would like to have the script-trays etc. in that interface available on both locations. So I thought making trays with the %_WGRP_SHADERPLUGINS% variable hacked in the XML interface file instead of a \\server\workgroup folder. Will this work or not? Obviously the server names are different on the several locations ;) cheers for any replies or tips. rob wuijster s-5 multimedia holland
