| I've done a little more experimenting. The parent script contains ...
property prefsName : "com.LutherFuller.DiskImageTools" -- = CFBundleIdentifier
and opens a "Test" script file with ...
(path to resource (scriptName & ".scpt") in directory "MenuItemScripts") as alias -- where scriptName = Test run (load script the result)
If the file "Test.scpt" is ...
on run my testHandler() end run
on testHandler() prefsName display dialog the result buttons {"OK"} default button 1 end testHandler --------------------
Then there is an error because the property prefsName is not available. This problem is corrected by changing the script to ...
on run my testHandler(prefsName) end run
on testHandler(x) display dialog x buttons {"OK"} default button 1 end testHandler --------------------
The conclusion is that properties of the parent are available in the 'run' handler of the child script ... ONLY! The parent's properties are not available within a handler in the child script ... even if you use 'my', 'of me' or 'of my parent'.
