    Hi !

    I 'm tring to make a script that would click on Ui element that the audioease 360 pan has on the video overlay..

    I would need to click the 'Show all' that can turn to 'hide all' element


    The picker from the Click ui element action doesn't seems to hi-light it red as it should but does pick something:

    But i just got errors when triggering :

    07.10.2020 21:55:34.24 <info> [Backend]: Logging error in action (01) ClickButtonAction: Error invoking AXElement: kAXErrorActionUnsupported
    !! Command Error: hide  [user:ck3ows1qx0000qh10jhwajjsp:ckfzslb2w00029k107sl25bqb]:

       at SoundFlow.Shortcuts.Automation.Actions.ClickButtonAction.<Execute>d__11.MoveNext() + 0x89
    
    

    Then the next step would be to click "show puck " on the plug in itself :

    Coud it be done?

    Thanks a lot all !

    1. Hi Lucas,

      You're quite right. UI Automation often doesn't work within plugins, and also not in certain apps that don't expose their UI's to macOS in the right way.

      You need to use the "Mouse Click Relative to UI Element" action - see an example here:

      or here:

      And here are some more examples:
