Hello,
I am brand spanking new to applescript, but I do have some experience
programming some basic OOP in Flash Actionscript 2.0.
My question however may be waay too basic for this list, so perhaps
people could point me in a new direction.
I'm trying to very simply automate some tasks using the script editor
recorder. I thought it may be a compatibility issue with some updates,
so now I have the developer tools all installed, and xcode, running on
10.3.9.
My question is, how limited is the recorder in the script editor? I'm
trying to create a script where I open my system preferences and change
some settings. If I perform finder actions it records, but in any other
native mac application, it doesn't. Is this some kind of preference
setting I might be missing? This isn't really what I do for a living,
so I'm not looking to build a stand alone application (though I plan on
learning slowly in my free time). Is something like this achievable, or
is there another resource that could help me out with more basic
information?
Again, I've been on this list all of two minutes so I have no clue how
hardcore it gets, though I'm sure this question is probably very basic
for the list.
Any and all thanks in advance,
Dbit
