Hi, I am having some problems handling axes in Excel charts via python and appscript.
I am using apple's stock python 2.6.1, appscript 0.21.1 and Excel 12.2.5 on Snow Leopard 10.6.4 Here is how I am trying to get hold of an axis: *c=app('Microsoft Excel').get_axis(app.active_sheet.chart_objects[1].chart,axis_type=k.value_axis) * now c contains *app(u'/Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Microsoft Excel.app').active_sheet.chart_objects[1].chart.axes.ID(131073)* but if I do: *c2=app('Microsoft Excel').get_axis(app.active_chart,axis_type=k.value_axis) * apparently I get the same result, in fact c==c2 returns true. Yet, if I try to access c, I get an error, eg *In [16]: c.maximum_scale()* *------------------------------------------------------------* *Traceback (most recent call last):* * File "<ipython console>", line 1, in <module>* * File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/appscript/reference.py", line 643, in __call__* * return self.get(*args, **kargs)* * File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/appscript/reference.py", line 499, in __call__* * raise CommandError(self, (args, kargs), e, self.AS_appdata)* *CommandError: Command failed:* * * *OSERROR: -1728* * * *MESSAGE: The object you are trying to access does not exist* * * *COMMAND: app(u'/Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Microsoft Excel.app').active_sheet.chart_objects[1].chart.axes.ID(131073). maximum_scale.ge*t() but c2 works perfectly: *In [17]: c2.maximum_scale()* *Out[17]: 0.080000000000000016* Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if there is a bug somewhere?
