Paul:
Thanks for the input. I am glad that your SD4 download worked. For
the version I received, however, Applescript formatting was definitely not
working, nor was it working for a colleague here at my place of
employment. I researched the issue throughly, pulling both versions of SD
(3 and 4) up and comparing them side by side. As a matter of fact, here's
the description I wrote in preparation for a follow-on message to Mark
Alldritt WRT the subject:
If I look at SD3 under "Script Debugger/Preferences" I find an item named
"Applescript Settings." Clicking on it, I find eight items already added
(i.e. New text (uncompiled), Operators, etc.(+ & ,), Language Keywords,
Application keywords, Comments, Values, Variables and subroutine names,
and References). By clicking on any given item, I am allowed to select
font, font size, font style, and color.
If I activate SD4, select "Script Debugger/Preferences," I am presented a
dialog with three categories of icons to select: "Application,"
"Scripting Systems" and "Maintenance." Under "Scripting Systems" I find
"Applescript." Clicking on it, a dialog appears with the title,
"Applescript Formatting": And then what looks like a list box, with four
columns labeled "Category," "Font," "Size" and "Color." The listbox
itself is completely blank, and I can see no button or keystroke that will
allow me to add a category. Clicking on the "Factory Defaults" button
causes a small dialog box to appear with the message:
"NSRangeException/Uncaught exception: ***-[NSCFArrayobjectAtIndex:]: index
(1) beyond bounds (1)."
I was in fact going to send the above text to the list this morning,
but decided to download the SD4 upgrade first to see if it made a
difference. It did. I'm now happy, and I felt like telling Mark that.
End of story.
