I’ve been banging my head against the wall with this one…
I’m trying to GUI script Final Cut to export a still image using QuickTime Conversion. Bringing up the export dialog works fine with this:
do_submenu("Final Cut Pro", "File", "Export", "Using QuickTime Conversion...")
on do_submenu(app_name, menu_name, menu_item, submenu_item)
try
-- bring the target application to the front
tell application app_name
activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
tell process app_name
tell menu bar 1
tell menu bar item menu_name
tell menu menu_name
tell menu item menu_item
tell menu menu_item
click menu item submenu_item
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
return true
on error error_message
return false
end try
end do_submenu
What I can’t get to work is selecting the “Still Image” from the Format popup button, setting the JPG settings, et al.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
