macOS Applescript- Just started and i need help!!

[kelvinli]

Hi guys,

Just started learning some applescripts I need help in something regarding "looping (repeat) and naming curFile path"

this is my current code which i created for my Adobe Flash CS3 to automate some process. I want to loop it for several files.

tell application "Finder"
	set dFiles to every file of (choose folder)
	repeat with curFile in dFiles
		set this_item to curFile
	
		set this_path to the POSIX path of this_item		
		tell application "Adobe Flash CS3"
			activate
		end tell
		
		tell application "System Events"
			tell process "Adobe Flash CS3"
				click the menu item "New..." of the menu "File" of menu bar 1
				click the radio button "General" of the first tab group ¬
					of window "New Document"
				
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 126 --Up Arrow
				key code 36 --Enter
				
				click the menu item "Import to Stage..." of menu 1 of menu item "Import" of menu 1 of menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1 --Import
				--key code 15 using command down --Command + R (import)
				
				keystroke "/" using control down
				
				tell window "Untitled-1"
					tell sheet 1
						set value of text field 1 to this_path
						click button 1
					end tell
					click button 1
				end tell
				
			end tell
			
		end tell
		
		
		
		
	end repeat
end tell

I got an error once the line "set this_path to the POSIX path of this_item" is being runned. I cant loop this process if I cant get the path of the file...right?


I am able to do it in a single time not looping using this codes->

display dialog "Import an image file or a folder of images:" buttons ¬
	{"Cancel", "Folder", "Movie"} default button 3
if the button returned of the result is "Folder" then
	set this_item to choose folder
else
	set this_item to choose file
end if
-- convert the file reference to UNIX style

set this_path to the POSIX path of this_item

tell application "Adobe Flash CS3" to activate
tell application "System Events"
	tell process "Adobe Flash CS3"
		click the menu item "New..." of the menu "File" of menu bar 1
		click the radio button "General" of the first tab group ¬
			of window "New Document"
		
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 126 --Up Arrow
		key code 36 --Enter
		
		-- open import dialog
		keystroke "r" using {command down}
		-- summon path input sheet
		keystroke "/" using control down
		delay 1
		
		tell window "Untitled-1"
			tell sheet 1
				tell sheet 1
					set value of text field 1 to this_path
					click button 1
				end tell
				click button 1
			end tell
		end tell
		
		tell window "Import Video"
			delay 5
			key code 36 --Enter
			delay 5
			key code 36 --Enter
		end tell
		
	end tell
end tell

This works perfectly fine looking for the path of file.




I seriously need help. Any professional out there?
