10.3: Using AppleScript UI scripting on AXUnknown elements
Authored by: diamondsw on Dec 05, '03 03:24:04PM

Thanks for the original code. :) Yes, this is a last resort, and programs that use seriously non-standard UI elements still won't be scriptable. However, this works for a lot of things (save dialogs, view options, etc). What I think would be great is if AppleScript could record such UI interactions. If the program is "recordable", use high-level events. If not, record the UI interaction. Maybe in 10.4? :)
