Imagination is more important than knowledge.

fileDialog2 -fm 1 -ds 2 -dir "/Users/Peter/Documents/maya/projects/" -ff "Filtered Files (Apache)";
My project map is called Apache ("Filtered Files (Apache)"
!?If I open a file just with the Maya file | import dialog the script editor is displaying the following line:
fileDialog2 -fm 1 -ds 2 -dir "/Users/Peter/Documents/maya/projects/Apache/" -ff "Filtered Files (*.*)";
Now it states *.*
I'm somewhat disappointed. The tutorial says Maya 6 and up

If I browse to the directory where my Images are standing and I type the exact name with extension inside the open dialog box then it creates the plane and I also got an extra warning:
// Result: /Users/Peter/Documents/maya/projects/Apache/sourceimages/lChassisReference.jpg //
// Warning: The -tx/texture flag is obsolete and will be removed in the next release. The -cuv/createUVs flag should be used instead. //
// Error: Nothing is currently selected. //
My Mel knowledge is at the moment of writing this message 4 hours and google is not providing the answers I want. Please help to fix these errors.
Peter.

Bottom-point... This version should work with Maya 2011 and probable brakes with most earlier versions of Maya.
