I'm a die-hard QuicKeys guy, but because it's 3rd party, it can't ever operate as fast (or efficient) as FinaleScript has the potential to do. So far, I've found that the documentation flat out sucks...but I'm still intrigued.
So, what I'd like to ask is flat out basic syntax for a simple operation. So please, someone write a simple script that utilizes the basics...navigation, sub-menus, and selection within dialogue boxes. How about something basic...like deleting a blank page.
Logical steps that I would do manually (or w/QuicKeys):
1.) select page layout tool
2.) select "Delete Blank Pages"
3.) From page 1 to 1
4.) OK
In theory, this should be something like:
// delete blank page 1 script
page layout tool menu item "Delete Blank Pages" check "From Page 1 Through 1"
But again, documentation is lacking...so who knows? All I know is THAT doesn't work. Any takers???
Chances are, if I could get it to work, I'd use QuicKeys side by side with FinaleScript. FinaleScript would be fantastic within the program and I could use QuicKeys to run the sequences and interact with other features, such as the clipbook, etc...ah...what a utopia. Ward Baxter
