RE: How to pass a selected NSPopUpButton value to a variable

Brendon:

The way I have been passing information back from the selection of a popup button has been to
assign a variable to the title of the popup button. This will always reflect the current selection of the button.

This should work:

on action theObject
set theWindow to the window of theObject
if name of theObject is "control" then
set myVariable to title of popup button "control" of theWindow
end if
end action

Hope this helps.
