I am still trying to get at least a bit of a handle on GUI scripting
and am running into the following error when accessing menus:
System Events got an error:
NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4
The script in question is the following:
tell application "Preview"
activate
end tell
delay 10
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Preview"
click menu item "Open" of menu "File" of menu bar 1
delay 1
end tell
end tell
Hallo,
According my experience with GUI scripting, Preview is not the only
application causing this error.
The following way almost all applications (exept Script Editor) can
access menus:
tell application "Preview"
activate
delay 10
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Preview"
click menu item 2 of menu "File" of menu bar 1
delay 1
end tell
end tell
end tell
HTH
Barbara
