Hi all-
Although I'm sure I qualify as a Python noobie as well as with Applescript and
Skim, I've run into the following and hope someone could shed some light for me.
I have the following script:
from appscript import *
skim = app('Skim.app')
reference = skim.documents[1].notes[1].selection.get()[0]
print reference
which produces the reference:
app(u'/Applications/Skim.app').documents[u'blair-2004.pdf'].pages[1].text.characters[app.documents[u'blair-2004.pdf'].pages[1].text.characters[1022]:app.documents[u'blair-2004.pdf'].pages[1].text.characters[1147]]
If I change the last line of the script to:
print reference.get()
it generates:
CommandError:
app(u'/Applications/Skim.app').documents[u'blair-2004.pdf'].pages[1].text.characters[app.documents[u'blair-2004.pdf'].pages[1].text.characters[1022]:app.documents[u'blair-2004.pdf'].pages[1].text.characters[1147]].get,
((), {}), aem.EventError(-1720, '', {'errn': <aem.ae.AEDesc type='long'
size=4>, 'erob': <aem.ae.AEDesc type='obj ' size=932>})
function __call__ in untitled at line 499
raise CommandError(self, (args, kargs), e, self.AS_appdata)
Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance,
Charles
