could you please add a button under this part of the preferences that would open the javascript folder in the Windows file explorer program?

Re: javascript folder location button [suggestion]
Hello, MedBooster
As I mention in that other thread, the JS folder does not exist by default, and they are two different locations, so making a link to open these would not likely be added, but I will bring the idea to the Dev team for consideration.
Kind regards,

This script may help. Most of the code is just to make the dialog. You'll get a security warning if you want it to open the folder.
Run it in the JavaScript console:
Run it in the JavaScript console:
Code: Select all
{
// dialog data
const dialog = {
data:[],
initialize: function (dialog) {
let dLoad = {};
// add the paths to the dialog
dLoad["apth"] = this.data[0];
dLoad["upth"] = this.data[1];
dialog.load( dLoad );
},
commit:function (dialog) { // called when OK pressed
console.println( this.data.join("\n") );
},
aLch:function (dialog) {
this.pFolder(this.data[0]);
},
uLch:function (dialog) {
this.pFolder(this.data[1]);
},
pFolder:function (url) {
app.launchURL( url.replace(/[\/\\][^\/\\]+$/,"") );
},

name: "Javascript Folder Locations", // Dialog box title

}
// get both paths
let jPaths = ["app","user"].map( j => app.getPath(j,"javascript") );
// change url to windows path
if ("WIN" == app.platform ) {
jPaths = jPaths.map( j => j.replace(/\//g,'\\').replace(/^(\\[A-Z]+)/,"$1:") );
}
dialog.data = jPaths;
app.execDialog(dialog);
}

... and I agree: It would be nice to have something like this as part of the preferences.
