I'm not clear on what you mean by "embedder pane" and "pop-up
groupbox".
Standard Cocoa and Carbon UI elements are accessible out of the box,
and
thus GUI Scriptable. There have been a lot of bug fixes over the last
several releases of Mac OS X, and I now rarely encounter situations
where UI
Element Inspector or my own PreFab UI Browser can't see them or GUI
Scripting can't read or control them.
Actually I downloaded the PreFab UI Browser but it cannot see these
elements either.
My window is built with standard elements only. It has a tabs control
with four tabs. One tab has a popup menu groupbox in it (embedded in a
user pane). This groupbox in turn has 6 associated user panes (one for
each menu item) each containing a number of controls.
The second user pane layer is the problematic one. The groupbox appears
as a popup button in the UI Element inspector but without children. If
I select a control in the groupbox its parent is unkown and it
grandparent is the popup button.
Somehow the system chokes on this configuration.
That's too bad because the first script I made was quite cool.
Unfortunately I almost always need to set some values within the group
box.
Jan.
