Moho Forum

Recently i discovered a tool to change the path of used images inside many moho files with a single run.

the program is called useful file utilities and can be found at

http://www.replsoft.com/

you'll also need the batch replacer plugin

With this program you can search for files with a specific extension inside a drive or folder.

read the tuorial. It's very clear on how to use it

why wont just right click the folder and choose search?

why wont just right click the folder and choose search?

Because that will only result in a bunch of files searched.
I'm Currently working on alot of files with another animator.
The files on my computer are on drive D. The files of my co worker are on Drive E.

If you open up a moho file with a text editor you will see a link for every image that you've used.
The problem is he can't use my files on his computer unless he changes the image paths inside the moho files with a texteditor.
If you have many files the last thing you want is to open every moho file seperately and change the paths with the replace text function.

instead of opening all files one by one you can use the tool described in my earlier post to replace the desired text (in this case the path description) in all files at once.

Batch search-and-replace of a bunch of text files can be done with many applications. On the Mac I use BBEdit for that purpose.

Oh man!

I have been using jEdit for all of my LUA, HTML, Javascript and other text stuff.

This thing kicks tushy and IT'S FREE! Works on Mac, Win, etc etc. It is my new BBEdit (I'm broke... can't upgrade... Hey! free works!)

You can create your own code highlighting plugins (for other text based file formats... like Moho possibly!). I tried to do that with BBedit but you need to compile the plugin using C or something. jEdit is just plain text files.
