Hi List,
I'm trying to write a script that will change the screen resolution
and colours from what ever it is set to currently to 1024x640 and the
colours to thousands. I am trying to run a program called Gravitation
Ltd. 5.0 under classic in Panther. Admittedly, I am struggling with
this due to my lack of ability with AppleScript. This is what I have
so far:
tell application "System Preferences"
tell pane "displays"
set resolutions to "1024 x 640"
end tell
tell pane "displays"
set colors to "thousands"
end tell
end tell
open application "Gravitation Ltd. 5.0"
If I try to run it, it gives me an error of "System Preferences got an
error: NSCannotCreateScriptCommandError" If I remove the part of the
script where I try to change the colors to thousands, that error goes
away, but it still doesn't execute the script successfully. My overall
goal with this is to save it as an application so that the grade 1 to
3's will be able to launch this without having to do anything else with
any preferences. If anyone out there might be able to suggest where I
am going wrong, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Paul
