Version Cue sync reminder

Patrick · Post by **Patrick** » Mon Sep 17, 2007 6:27 pm

This is a script I made for a coworker that works in Version Cue a lot. This will popup and ask if the user wants to sync the file in VC every time they save a file that is from VC - goal is the prevent users from unintentionally saving the file outside of VC.

Bind this script to the "Save Document" event under the Script Event Manager.

Code: Select all#script "Save a Version";

// File -> Save a Version... pulled from script listener
function saveVersion()
{
try
{
   var id121 = charIDToTypeID( "save" );
   var desc25 = new ActionDescriptor();
   var id122 = charIDToTypeID( "Vrsn" );
   desc25.putBoolean( id122, true );
   var id123 = stringIDToTypeID( "comment" );
   desc25.putString( id123, "whatever" );
   executeAction( id121, desc25, DialogModes.NO );
}
catch (e)
{ // display error
}
};

// main routine
function main()
{
try
{
   // reference active document
   var docRef = app.activeDocument;

   // if it is a version cue doc
   if (docRef.managed == true) {
      // ask to sync
   var userinput = confirm("Sync in Version Cue?", true);
      // if they choose yes
      if (userinput == true) {
         // sync in version cue
         saveVersion();
      };
   };
}
catch (e)
{ // display error
   alert("Script failed! \r\r" + e);
}
};

main();
