Direct access script

[Xaver77]

Hello everyone, I created a script with which I can select a menu area directly. What I still miss, however, is that I can select a specific pull-down point directly from the script and confirm it immediately. I just don't have the necessary know-how for this function. Here is the script command.

def DoMenuTextByNameExample(): vs.DoMenuTextByName('XG SubscribeMaterialsMenu',0); DoMenuTextByNameExample() The result.

 

Here I would like the script to select and confirm "Abholen" immediately.

 

 

 

Another example.

script command:

 

def DoMenuTextByNameExample(): vs.DoMenuTextByName('XG Python Cuttinglist',0);

DoMenuTextByNameExample()

 

 

The result. Here the script should select "3.FR_Materialliste_Export" and immediately confirm with "OK"

 

 

 

Can anyone help in this case?

Vectorworks doesn’t allow for automating user interaction. In fact, DoMenuTextByName is a bit of a kludge. Directly scripting the underlying action of the dialog is your only solution, and is generally a better approach.
