I'm trying to write an applescript to automate my frequency separation setup. How do I get applescript to run the Image>Apply Image menu item, and then enter the correct parameters?

I called an action that I'd created in PS 🙂

So, how did you go running the ExtendScript Action Manager code from within the AppleScript?

Actions are easier and still capable.

I don't code in AppleScript, however, I do know that just like the ExtendScript DOM, where there are missing features you need to use ActionManager code such as recorded by ScriptingListener and call that code from within AppleScript.
