• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Quotes in path

Is it possible to allow quotes in folder paths as well?
 
you're not suppose to use quotes in the path
try current context for shorter path; like this

EXPORTAGN|FSX|\agn
 
Arno added functionality to remove quotes from paths before parsing them, though:

Since Chris is also using this as a feature request thread, I hope that no one minds that I add another request: Arno, could you possibly strip quotation marks out when parsing paths (for steps like IMPORTOGR or EXPORTAGN)? It would make it a lot more convenient, as I often use the shift right click copy as path feature of Windows, which places quotation marks around the copied path.

Should bebe easy enough to add, I never tried with the quotes around it. I'll add it to the list.

Hi,

I have implemented the function to strip the quotes now. A new development release will be online in about 15 minutes.

It seems to work in the IMPORTOGR step for my shapefile path, but not EXPORTAGN with my output directory.
 
Yep, the behavior without quotes remains as it was before (i.e. fully functional). It's just a convenience since the copy as path functionality includes quotation marks.
 
Humm, I'll check again. I thought I did change it in all places, but it seems I forgot some of them. Or maybe I only changed for files and not for directories :)
 
Hi,

I have just fixed this issue, I'll make a new development release later tonight.

I did change the code for the folders as well, but I forgot to change the function that checks if the input is valid. So that's why it didn't work yet.
