New render locations

This script allows the user to select queued items in the Render Queue and assign a new render destination for them.

First, we prompt the user for a new folder to use as a render destination.

var newLocation = folderGetDialog("Select a render destination...");

Next, we make certain that the user entered a new location (and didn't cancel the dialog). Then we create a loop for each selected render queue item. If this item is queued, we take the current render location, give it a new name and location, and then pop up an alert stating the new file path.

if (newLocation) { //boolean to see if the user cancelled
    for (i = 1; i <= app.project.renderQueue.numItems; ++i) {
        var curItem = app.project.renderQueue.item(i);
        if (curItem.status == RQItemStatus.QUEUED) {
            for (j = 1; j <= curItem.numOutputModules; ++j) {
                var curOM = curItem.outputModule(j);
                var oldLocation = curOM.file;
                curOM.file = new File(newLocation.toString() + "/" + oldLocation.name);
                alert(curOM.file.fsName);
            }
        }
    }
}
