Ok, I've tried your example:
sysevents = app('System Events')
hg = sysevents.processes['Hourglass']
ref = hg.windows['Untitled'].splitter_groups[1] \
.scroll_areas[3].tables[1].rows[1].text_fields[1]
s = '<string>'
ref.value.set(s)
t = ref.value()
print (s, t, s == t)
Here's what I get:
[eris:sas/Hourglass-trunk/Tests] sas% python2.5 hg_test.py
('<string>', u'unnamed customer', False)
Any idea where the 'unnamed customer' is coming from? Is the appscript
'set' command setting the text field's value? Can you post both your
working AppleScript and non-working Python script for comparison?
Also, if you can run your application with AEDebug enabled:
export AEDebugSends=1; export AEDebugReceives=1; open /path/to/
YourApp.app
run the AppleScript and the Python script, and post the raw Apple
event logs from Console, that'll let me check for any differences
between the events they're sending that might explain it.
BTW, your code "app('AppName').windows['Untitled']" fails with
AttributeError: Unknown property, element or command: 'windows'
Durr, my bad. Yes, you're right, should've been
sysevents.processes['YourApp'].windows....
