ImportOptions Object

new ImportOptions();
new ImportOptions(File);

Description

The ImportOptions object provides the ability to create, change and access options for the importFile() method. You can create ImportOptions using one of two constructors, one of which takes arguments, the other which does not.

Constructors

If importFile() is set without arguments it has a "file" which does not exist unless it is set in another statement:

new ImportOptions().file = new File("myfile.psd");

Otherwise importFile can be set with a single argument, which is a File object:

var my_io = new ImportOptions( new File( "myfile.psd" ) );
