Scrolling through textures list

Oct 12, 2010 8:44 AM

Is there a way of speeding this process up? I tried putting the textures into a folder but FW didn't see the folder.

I want to predominantly use the 'other' option but have to scroll every single time through the large menu to get there.

 

Any suggestion as to how this can be speeded up?

 

Thanks

    It seemed like it should be possible to write a script to let you pick an arbitrary file and use it as a texture.  That way, you could simply run the script and pick the texture without having to scroll through the textures popup menu to get to "Other".

     

    Unfortunately, it didn't work out.  Fireworks seems to perform some magic when using the Other option that can't be reproduced when scripting via the JS API.  I tried copying the texture image to the Textures folder before applying it, but that didn't work either.

     

    Get used to scrolling, I guess.  :|
