Custom Bridge question

Post by JLM » Mon Jul 02, 2018 7:20 pm

I am creating a custom bridge for my own software. It simply creates an ini file with the chartnumber in it.
The button appears on the main menu as requested and it creates the file exactly as expected.
The problem is that a dialog appears that says "TheNameIChose is unavailable" every time the button is clicked.
Also, the bridge doesn't have an "internal name". Is that normal/OK?

The message "TheNameIChose is unavailable" is just a generic message we show when something goes wrong. It could occur for one of these reasons: the program was unable to write to the output path, the path to the executable could not be found, the executable could not launch properly.

That is just fine that your bridge doesn't have an internal name. Any custom bridge will lack one.
