Uploading & Reading In Data

[CompSci]

Hello,

Is there a way to upload/read-in a file from an environment. I wanted to write a code that will play a video that a user creates.

While in the environment the user would press a button that would prompt him/her to enter a file name or direct them to choose a video file. The selected file would then be played in the environment.

Thanks

You could read in the video file names from a file and load those into a dropdown list that the user selects from. Or you could have the user select the file from a vizinput.fileOpen dialog. The open dialog is documented on the vizinput dialogs page.

Thanks, I will give this a try.
