OO3 & Applescript

[mentorsw]

Jem,

You don't need the id.

Here are some examples:

set theRows to selected rows
     A list of selected rows

set fillValue to the value of cell 2 of selected row 1
     Get the contents of the topic cell in the first selected row

Scripting works well. I wrote a script called "Fill Down":
____________
Script to Fill Down in OmniOutliner (tested on OOPro3b3)
Asks the user which columns to fill down, then copies the values from 
those columns in the first selected row, to the other selected rows if 
more than one row is selected. If only one row is selected, values are 
filled to children of that row.
 
Column Names must be unique for this script to work.

Doesn't replace a value if one already exists. The exception is 
checkboxes for which missing value means not checked.
____________
Two limitations influenced the design: There is currently a bug that if 
you select a cell, "count of selected columns" always returns 0, so you 
can't determine which cell is selected. Also, you can't select multiple 
cells in the UI.
