I am a “sometimes” Applescripter and a beginner at XCode/AS Studio. I have a working Applescript droplet which accepts image files and using Image Events, displays information about each in turn, as you click on a button. To be clear: It gets file information about the first image and displays it, then when a button is clicked, it proceeds to the next, etc. To get my feet wet, I wanted to take this existing script and use IB to create an interface for it which will display the image(s) as the information is being displayed. I have created the interface, the image shows up in the Image View, but… that’s it. I can’t seem to get the file to be opened by Image Events or any info gleaned from the file at any stae. In other words, it doesn’t seem like the reference to the file is recognized as a file… god this is confusing! Can anyone supply me with an idea of how to display the image from a file (or group of files one-by-one) and then access the file itself with (or without) Image events?
Do you have any sample code we could look at?
I go that part figured out… on to the next problem…
