I am needing two applications to take still pictures for different sources.
I am using FrameThief with a DV Camera
and I am using Eos Utilty with my Canon EOS 400D

FrameThief has a dictionary and here is what i have come up with so far:

tell application "FrameThief"
	activate
	capture 1
end tell
tell application "EOS Utility"
	activate
	>>>here<<<
end tell

Unfortunally Eos Utility does not have a dictionary, but to take the picture all i need to do is hit the space bar. Is there any action sript that would just emulate me pressing the space bar?

Thanks

Hi and welcome to MacScripter.

I don’t have EOS Utility but try this

activate application "EOS Utility"
tell application "System Events" to tell process "EOS Utility" to keystroke space
