Samply.app: Improved UI interactivity with Developer Tools

Title

Samply.app: Improved UI interactivity with Developer Tools

What do you expect to happen when you run the script/macro?

Automating Samply is extremely clunky and some things simply do not work.

Are you seeing an error?

Cannot find UI element

What happens when you run this script?

Hey everyone!

I'm not sure if anyone else uses Samply.app but it's an incredible way to quickly send clients mixes and keep track of revisions. The issue I'm facing is automating processes inside it are pretty clunky and don't work exactly how I'd like. I know that the desktop application has the option to toggle developer tools but as someone who knows very little, it's not helping me much. I was wondering if it would in fact be possible to have this more seamlessly integrated with those tools being immediately accessible

How were you running this script?

I used a Stream Deck button

How important is this issue to you?
