Applescript Help...

Post by ravens_chance »

I'm running OS 10.5.8, LXConsole 1.1.4.

After setting up cues I want to be able to run an applescript that will open the cue list and automatically run all the cues from 1 through what ever. Has anyone done this before, or know how I can do it (I'm fairly new to applescript)?

Thank you

AppleScript may not be the best choice for live or realtime control. But to execute the next cue via AppleScript you would use this:

tell application "LXConsole"
tell the front document to GO
end tell

If the live window is not open, it should appear and the next cue will run.

Sounds great but no...

There is no command called GO in the library as far as I can see.

I find no way to simulate the GO-button for jumping in the sequence with the predefined times.

Thee is a command called"gotoNextCue" and that does just that, it jumps in 0 seconds to the next cue.
That´s useful of course but you get no crossfade times...

If a script command like:
"tell the front document to GO"
actually worked that would be just great!
But it seems to me that it doesn´t.
yet... ?
