No, smart groups are not accessible by applescript. But you can write an
applescript that copies all linked files of all selected items. And you can
easily select all items in the selected groups.

Dear All,Apologies if I missed something in the archives, but is there a
way (or, has someone authored a script, etc.) that allows one to export
linked files associated with items in a group or smartgroup to a specified
directory?
Thanks,

There are currently no plans to make groups scriptable. You can submit an
RFE but I can make no guarantees that this will be added.

Thanks. I've x-posted to macscripter & will see if anyone there has
suggestions but will drop a bug report if it stays unresolved.
Do you know if there are any plans to make group creation / manipulation
directly accessible through Applescript (and thus avoid UI scripting)?
thanks

My guess is that this is a bug in UI scripting. Apparently it does
not set the values of text fields in a KVC compatible way, so that
bindings do not work. You may file a bug report about this with Apple.

Hi all
I am trying to write an applescript to create a new smart group in
Bibdesk. Here's what I have (using UI scripting):
- - begin script - -
property the_tag : "land"
tell application "BibDesk"
activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "BibDesk"
tell menu bar 1
click menu item "New Smart Group" of menu "Database"
end tell
set value of text field 1 of group 2 of scroll area 1 of group 1
of sheet 1 of window "master" to the_tag
set value of combo box 1 of scroll area 1 of group 1 of sheet 1 of
window "master" to "Keywords"
click button "OK" of sheet 1 of window "master"
end tell
end tell
end tell
- - end script - -
Everything works as expected except that the new Smart Group which is
create doesn't actually have the values (Keyword contains land) that
are set in the script -- its criteria are empty.
Any advice would be appreciated.
