Selecting Multiple Images in Keynote

Any way to click on an image in Keynote? I can click on one image by changing a property such as rotation, but I can’t find a way to simply select it with a mouse click, which would allow clicking on more images using shift down.

Hi,

You don’t need use properties of the images to select the images of the slide. Every image in the slides is iWork item, and any iWork item you can select using selection property of document:


tell application "Keynote" to tell document 1 to set selection to (get images of slide 1)

Now, I select images 2 and 4 (at once) from 4 images I have in the slide 1:


tell application "Keynote" to tell document 1 to set selection to ¬
	{(get image 2 of slide 1), (get image 4 of slide 1)}

NOTE: the keyword get you can omit, but not the braces ()
