Assistance with Passing "defaultFilename" to SaveAs Dialog Box

Kenneth Korp

Hello PhxBUG,

I’m an avid Bluebeam user and I’m working on a form we use internally. I’ve been optimizing it for efficiency and I’m about 90% complete. My final hurdle is passing a "defaultFilename" variable to the SaveAs dialog box to prevent the user from having to retype information.

Below are the Field Tags I’ve concatenated to build the defaultFilename:

• PO # - PREFIX: N
• PO # - SUFFIX: 6789
• PO # - FULL: JOB #-N-6789
• JOB #: 12345
• JOB NAME: New Project Name

The desired result for the defaultFilename should look like this:
12345-N-6789 - New Project Name

Any guidance or assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I am guessing this is a form you are enhancing with JavaScript? It is possible to invoke the save as dialog by doing:

app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");

However, it does not take in any parameters to adjust the default file name.
