Maybe Apple events can be used to pass events between apps. I don't know. We do cross-platform code development (Windows, Mac, Linux), so we rarely are interested in mechanisms only available on Mac, and we know little about those. Tom On Dec 9, 2013, at 2:51 PM, "Dougherty, Matthew T" wrote:
Hi Tom,
Just surveying possibilities.
Thought apple events may be a way to pass events between apps. Currently using keyboard short cuts, thought this might be useful as another conduit of control.

Hi Matt,
The Apple event code in Chimera I believe handles when a user drags a file onto Chimera. That is received as an Apple event and Chimera opens the file in response. Don't know what other Apple events might be interesting to handle.

I was nosing around the code and I noticed something about an apple events handler.
Wondering if this be applied to some of my development.
Could you elaborate on its current use and potential application?

If the goal is to pass commands to Chimera, I recommend taking a look at the REST server extension: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ContributedSoftware/restserver/restserv.... Conrad On 12/9/2013 2:55 PM, Tom Goddard wrote:
