I was trying to run from Xojo an AppleScript that would initiate a Keyboard Maestro macro. You may be able to talk your way around it, you may not.Īs Douglas Handy/Sam Rowlands/Christian Schmitz have alluded to, my fundamental problem of being able to have Xojo fire off some AppleScripts and not others is related to increasing security measures that Apple has introduced with Mojave and Catalina. You’ll face a higher chance of being rejected for using the “legacy” Sandbox entitlements, than being accepted. I would recommend you consider if it is worth it. Lastly: If you are considering the Mac App Store and the application you’re controlling doesn’t support “Scripting Groups”. I was going to do so when I wrote the article for my blog. The above process can be done with AW3, but I’ll confess that I haven’t tried yet. The above described process was pieced together with information from Apple’s developers forums (not their documentation) and tweaked until it worked. If AW4 was able to do what it needed without Apple Script, I would have given up and used the alternative method. I found this to be unreliable and to cause more problems that simply trying and capturing the failure message.
