Agreed. Ideally, there'd be a fourth option that displayed the alerts and dialogs but automatically moved on. 

interact with alerts Displays alerts but not dialogs.
interact with all The script displays all dialogs and alerts.
never interact The script does not display any dialogs or alerts.

I'm sure you could use UI elements, with an appropriate pause, prior to automating the click of button "OK".

hi Dana,


yes you are right...


So this means now that the user needs to look for missing links, as he/she will not be notified anymore.


would be nice to keep the message without blocking the script process.


many thanks for all who reacted.

Why not this instead? You don't need to involve "Finder" at all.



tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
set user interaction level of script preferences to never interact

set openfile to choose file with prompt "Choose an Indesign document:"
--tell application "Finder"
open openfile
--end tell


tell document 1
export to (choose file name with prompt "Did you 'map styles to XML tags' and untag all items that should not be in the final XML file immediately before running this script? If not, please quit and complete those steps. Then run the script again.


If you have completed the steps above, please choose the place you would like the XML saved. Be sure to click on a file with the emarketer_2000xxx code so the right name is assigned.") & ".xml" as string format XML
end tell
end tell

hi Dana,


you mean like this? Still hangs, now on the line "set user interaction..."


set openfile to choose file with prompt "Choose an Indesign document:"
tell application "Finder"
open openfile
end tell




tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
set user interaction level of script preferences to never interact
tell document 1
-- do something
end tell
end tell



set user interaction level of script preferences to never interact


That usually does it for me.

Can't you say something like "without interaction" or "without user dialogs"??

hi all,



Does anyone know how to tackle the following?
This works only if I don't get a message about missing assets or whatever popup interrupt the page from opening
When I get a message before the page opens the scripts will hang...


set openfile to choose file with prompt "Choose an Indesign document:"
tell application "Finder"
open openfile
end tell
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
tell document 1
end tell
end tell


many thanks,
Jan
