Hello all,

I'm doing this just for fun, to see how in AppleScript.  I am trying to click a Menu Bar item (the menu bar by the clock) and I am using a snippet found with google.  And for some reason it takes the script forever.  After another google search I added the "ignore responses" lines but that doesn't seem to help.

I'm using the latest OS X which says 10.9.1 in the About menu and here is the applescript.  Does anyone know how to make this go faster?  I tried searching the mailing list using google site:lists.apple.com but didn't get anything for "menu bar 2" with quotes.

ignoring application responses
tell application "System Events" to tell process "KeyRemap4MacBook"
tell menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
click
click menu item "Preferences..." of menu 1
end tell
end tell
end ignoring

Thanks in advance for any help.
V/r,
Bryan
Hello

I don't own this tool so I tested with an other one and got this running code :


tell application "System Events" to tell process "Alfred 2"
tell menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
click it
repeat
if exists (name of menu item 3 of menu 1) then exit repeat
end repeat
click (menu item 3 of menu 1)
end tell
end tell

The loop is required because reaching the menu item proved to require some time.
