since FILETYPES will be meaningless in the current and future versions of
macOS, I never tried this syntax. :-)
My first script
...
answer file "sdsdds" with type "PNG, JPEG|png,jpg|"
...
actually ONLY shows PNG and JPEG files in the dialog as exspected!
Your script:
...
answer file "sdsdds" with type ("PNG Files|png"&cr&"JPEG Files|jpg")
...
DOES in fact show the dropdown but lets me select ANY file in the dialog,
no matter what I select in that drop-down list.
Hint:
The correct old-style real Mac FILETYPE would be JPEG and PNGƒ in this case.
I tried different combinations, didn't work either.
Finally this one "kinda" works, but will return the filename in IT AND the
result:
...
answer file "sdsdds" with type ("PNG,Jpeg" & "|png" & CR & "jpg|")
...
See, I left out the actual FILETYPE parameter, as it it meaningless in current
macOS versions.
They are leftovers from MascOS <= 9
Looks like the CR in the "extensions" parameter forces the list to appear,
although I did not
get it to work correctly.
Best
Klaus
