Check prefs for 5.5 for what might be available under the 'File>Open' tab.

Nino,

I think you're just telling the wrong object.  If you use that outside a
'tell GC' block, then you will get that error, with the appropriate text
highlighted.  So, you need to do that and you need to supply a useful
"reference" to the file.

Granted, the dictionary language is clunky (most, not just GC) in letting
you know what is acceptable.

Just supply one of the standards.  Either a string path or an alias. The
file can be either open or closed (but can't be busy).

TESTED / GC Classic 5.5.2 / OS 9.1 & 9.2 --

set cf to choose file
--  alias "Odysseus:Desktop Folder:manchuriancandidate_02_1280.jpg"

set scf to (cf as string)
--  "Odysseus:Desktop Folder:manchuriancandidate_02_1280.jpg"

tell application "GC"
    get file imageinfo cf
    --  {"1280", "1024", "72.00", "72.00", " (RGB)", "32", "JPEG/JFIF"}

    get file imageinfo scf
    --  {"1280", "1024", "72.00", "72.00", " (RGB)", "32", "JPEG/JFIF"}
end tell

If the file is open, then just talk to the window, girlfriend.

You can then get the color space directly by:

tell application "GC" to window 1's color space
 --  "rgb"

P.S.

For avid GC users, version 5.6 is out _today_.

Here is an email from the AM:

I did not check for a link yet.
If you are cached up and can not get a
link to either 5.5.x or 5.6, then check the Switch mirror.
