Accessing Hype UI buttons using Applescript and System Events

Exporting & Previewing

Hi,

We are trying to access the Hype UI using Applescript and System Events.

The menus items are straighforward to select, but how can we select/click on Inspector buttons such as "Capture Poster Image" ?

Thanks in advance.

That's a good question. Accessibility Inspector seems to have some issue getting the hierarchy of the inspector items when I try to target it, and I can't easily find its location otherwise.

Maybe you could have a function that recursively searches through all window elements and tries to find one matching a specific title?

@jonathan Or you could write and add a library to Hype... :grin:
