Access elements inside a dialog box/window using applescripts

Am new to applescript. I want to access elements inside a dialog box/window. I tried following code.
tell application "System Events" set procs to processes set windowName to {} repeat with proc in procs try if exists (window 1 of proc) then repeat with w in windows of proc if w's name contains "App Name" then copy w's name to the end of windowName copy properties of w to the end of windowName end if end repeat end if end try -- ignore errors end repeat end tell return windowName
But am only able to get the 4 elements from window: 1.Close 2.Minimize 3.Maximize 4.window title
Nothing from inside the window/dilog.
Can any one help me with this pls?

Hi,
Like this :
tell application "System Events"
      tell process "App Name"
            tell (first window) to if exists then return UI elements
      end tell
end tell

  • Putting an applet window inside a dialog box

    I am relatively new to Java, and have recently been introduced to swing and applets. Is it possible to put an applet window inside a dialog box? If this is a dumb question, I apologize in advance.
    Thank you,
    Jonathan

    As camickr pointed out, you cannot do this directly. Depending on what you want, you could do one of the following:
    Start the applet and let the applet create a JFrame in wich the rest of the applet's operations can be displayed
    Run the applet in Sun's appletviewer (note that this won't work in browsers).

  • Access to installed device drivers on windows using Java?

    Is it possible to get access to installed device drivers on windows using java.

    Java has APIs for accessing the OS, The OS has APIs for accessing devices.
    Java does not have APIs for direct access to devices.
    However, depending on the device, you get what you want most of the time. You would only access the device directly if the device isn't supported by the OS or Java directly.
    Which device do you have in mind?

  • Problem with changing URL within Safari window using AppleScript

    hey everyone,
    I'm currently trying to write a script that will open Safari, then change the URL within that same Safari window, and then quit Safari. However, I'm currently having a few problems:
    1) Sometimes two Safari windows will open. One will go to what I'm guessing is the default homepage, and the other will go to Google.
    2) I cannot figure out or find a way to change the URL within that window using AppleScript.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to how to go about doing these things? I'm pretty new to AppleScript, so if what code I already have is poorly written, please let me know. Thanks!
    --Open Finder and tell it to open Safari
    tell application "Finder"
    set site1 to "http://www.google.com"
    set site2 to "http://www.yahoo.com"
    launch application "Safari"
    tell process "Safari"
    open location site1
    delay 10
    open location site2

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You don't need to tell the Finder to open Safari - you can address it directly.
    This should be self-explanatory, but do ask away if you have any questions.
    (If there's only one window open - as per your description - it will take the first URL. Otherwise - if there are zero or many windows open - a new window will be opened for each URL.)

  • Photoshop elements 11: No dialog box?

    I've recently purchased Photoshop elements 11 and when I insert the disc to download it nothing comes up on the screen. Step 2 of the installation guide is to 'In the adobe photoshop elements dialog box, click instill adobe photoshop elements' but I have nothing to click. Tried browsing to the dvd using windows explorer but didn't get anything. How can I download what I have purchased?

    Hi freedomalice05,
    In the installation disk there must be a file named setup.exe
    Please run this file and the instaltion should begin.
    Also make sure you got the right disk for the right OS.
    Alternatively you can try downloading PSE 11 from our website : http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us

  • How can i get rid of the print dialog box when using api to print an html file

    i am using the systemshell.vi provided by labview the VI is working fine but it will open a dialog box for printer selection and properties. i would like to hide that dialog box and have it print to the default printer with the default properties

    ShellExec is part of lvwutil and merely calls a function in Shell32.dll. There is nothing about the function call that controls the display of the printer dialog. I think that what shell32.dll does when it prints (just like right clicking on the file) is print the file according to what is defined about that file type in Windows Folder Options. On my Win2K system, the print application is defined as "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\msohtmed.exe" /p %1. If I remove the /p, then Word starts up and in order to print, I get a printer dialog when choosing Print from the File menu. So it seems like the printer dialog is entirely dependant on the application that does the printing. I get no dialog when I use the VI to print a .txt file. I
    nstead of using shell32, you might want to try some ActiveX method or property of an application like Internet Explorer that can open and print an html file.

  • Pop-up dialog box when using SPROXY t.code in ECC 6.0

    Hi
       I have a ECC 5.0 that I am trying to connect to my XI 7.0 box for development.
       When I use transaction code SPROXY in my ECC 6.0 box - I get a dialog box titled 'Enter your username and id' - with a subtitle - Resource   Rep  and asking me for userid and password
    My SLDCHECK works fine with accesses to SLD and exchange file of my XI box from ECC 6.0. I don't have any RFC destination like ESR*PROXY . My RFC destination LCRSAPRFC tests ok.
    Why am I still get this popup ? When I try executing SPROX_CHECK_IFR_ADDRESS - I get the same popup dialog box .
    Correct answers will be instantly rewarded. I am really looking forward to help for this critical problem.

    Go to SXMB_ADM-->IntegrationServer Configuration in ECC . There find the value for Related Integration Server. It will be some thing like dest://<RFCdestination name>. Note this destination name and test this destination in SM59.

    Ashwini,
    I don't understand what your exact problem is, but i can give you some feedback on the VI:
    1) It is good to include timing into loops. But your comment implies, that you do not use timing in loops which are not connected to UI-controls. This is bad. You should always include timing into loops except if you want something (which has to be finit in execution!) to execute as fast as possible.
    2) Your timing is 1s. This is far too long for proper interaction. Tests showed, that delays about some 100ms lead to misusage of the application. So please lower the time to something around 100-250 ms.
    3) The VI checks "MR" against 4 and then decides if it should continue in the loop or to show the dialog. This is not good since the comparison is only done once in the beginning.
    4) Never use the "run continuous" button!
    hope this helps,

  • No longer able to select a Printer in Print Dialog Box - Windows 7 with CS

    SInce installing Windows 7 I can no longer select a printer in the Page Setup Dialog Box. Instead it always defaults to the default printer. Is there a fix for this?

    You assume too much. I am not mucking around with the iPhoto Library.
    Here is an example of my problem:
    Open Address Book
    Select a Contact
    Click Edit
    Double Click the Photo icon
    A dialog appears for me to "Choose" a photo
    Click Choose...
    Another dialog appears for me to browse to the photo that I would like to attach to that conract
    I select my username under "Favorites", then expand the "Pictures" folder
    When I click on iPhoto Library, I am no longer able to expand it and presented with the photos, events, faces, albums within it, but only get an icon for the iPhoto Library instead.
    This is part of the way a Mac works, and is now broken. It exhibits this in Address Book and any other program, and it was working fine until I installed PSE 10.

  • Response dialog box Teststand using I/O signal

    Hello, As we know,when Test end it will show the test result  dialog box. I want to close the dialog box using I/O signal not keyboard and mouse.
    Who can help me?

    Hi Vista,
    Vinzent is correct in stating that this dialog is displayed via a step in the Process Model. However, you don't need to directly modify the step in the Process Model sequence file. The "test result dialog box" is actually displayed in the Post UUT callback sequence of the Process Model. Rather than directly modifying the Process Model sequence file, the better way to approach this would be to override the Post UUT callback in your test sequence file.
    Please post back in this thread if you have any questions as to how you might implement this approach.
