Hey,
I can't load a file when using ChooseRawFile()
Even when using the code directly copied from the example in the help files:

I always get the error:

with returnFullPath = 0 no file is copied, with returnFullPath = 1 and the "raw:" prefix it works

Thanks, that works but the "raw:" is case sensitive (I have learned).
Where did you find the info to use "raw:" in the file path? It doesn't appear in the help files.

its in the File Commands section of the update sticky

https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/219641#msg2602943

Quote: "
* Any command that takes a file path can now use an absolute path with the prefix "raw:" to allow access to files anywhere on the filesystem on all platforms, e.g. "raw:C:\MyFolder\MyFile.txt""


Edit: it does mention it on the page you linked in your first post, right down the bottom

Quote: "instead the full path will be returned to you and you can load it using the "raw:" prefix with the normal file commands. "
