Hello,
I'm total confused by the error message generated by this simple code:
Error: "Can't set automatic of appearance preferences to automatic
of appearance preferences"
tell application "System Events"
tell appearance preferences
set font smoothing style to automatic
end tell
end tell
If I "get font smoothing style" and look at it, it's a constant
"automatic", so I'm not sure why it doesn't work to set it to the
constant automatic.
Any ideas?
Well, I get here:
tell application "System Events"
tell appearance preferences
properties
end tell
end tell
--> {font smoothing style:«constant ****ˇˇˇˇ», font smoothing
limit:4, recent servers limit:10, class:appearance preferences object,
recent documents limit:10, recent applications limit:10, smooth
scrolling:false, scroll arrow placement:together, highlight color:
{46516, 54741, 65535}, font smoothing:true, scroll bar action:jump to
next page, double click minimizes:false, appearance:blue}
Looks like there's one small problem. ;-)
Setting the font smoothing style to automatic raises an error here too.
But it can be set to either light, medium, standard or strong without
raising an error; now, all those values result in that same «constant
****ˇˇˇˇ» value...
BTW, I'm unable to find where that parameter could be set from the
GUI, or the defaults (preferences) domain it could be stored in. Does
somebody know?
Axel
