color editor options
Does anyone know where to find more info on how to set options and values for the color editor options. The script dictionary does not really give too much. Thanks

I suggest that you down load a trial copy of Script Debugger.
Script Debugger has a really good dictionary feature, and a very handy Object Model Explorer, which allows you to observe all the properties of the and values of the Objects (catalog, variants, images) of Capture One while it is running.0 -
Interestingly if you run the below in Scriptdebugger tell application "Capture One 12" to tell current document to set theVAR to variants whose selected is true
You get a list of all the properties for a selected image, what I dont understand is that the color editor settings array is always empty regardless of if the image has editor adjustments are not. So running the below will get you the brightness setting as you'd expect as part of a layer array or not (variables a & b). I cant return the editor settings array with any combo I can think of.tell application "Capture One 12" to tell current document
set theVAR to variants whose selected is true
set a to get brightness of adjustments of item 1 of theVAR
set b to get brightness of adjustments of layer "Background" of item 1 of theVAR
set c to get color editor settings of adjustments of layer "Background" of item 1 of theVAR
end tell
Strange or am I just missing something super obvious?0 -
I am sure that color editor settings is a reference, but I'm having trouble learning what it refers to
Here is a quick script with some of my usual tricks to extract information. This didn't tell me anything except that it is a reference.
use AppleScript version "2.4" -- Yosemite (10.10) or later
use scripting additions
tell application "Capture One 20" to tell current document
set theVAR to variants whose selected is true
set a to get brightness of adjustments of item 1 of theVAR
set b to get brightness of adjustments of layer "Background" of item 1 of theVAR
set d to get color editor settings of adjustments of layer "Background" of item 1 of theVAR
set d2 to my isaref(d) -- returns TRUE
set d1 to get properties of d -- returns {}
try
|| of {d}
on error ErrorMess
log ErrorMess
copy ErrorMess to d3
end try
## returns Can’t get || of {color editor settings of adjustments of layer "Background" of variant id "5792" of collection id "682" of collection id "11" of collection id "10" of document "Incoming20" of application "Capture One 20"}
end tell
on isaref(objectToBeTested)
## Matt Nueberg
try
objectToBeTested as reference
return true
on error
return false
end try
end isaref
I suspect it is a reference to the following items:- color balance master hue (real)
color balance master saturation (real)
color balance shadow hue (real)
color balance shadow saturation (real)
color balance shadow lightness (real)
color balance midtone hue (real)
color balance midtone saturation (real)
color balance midtone lightness (real)
color balance highlight hue (real)
color balance highlight saturation (real)
color balance highlight lightness (real)0 -
I'm glad its nothing obvious then 🤓
I dont think its color balance because running the below does effect the 3-way color balance tool.
set color balance midtone hue of adjustments of item 1 of theVAR to 90
Having said all this I cant imagine how you could possibly set a color range selection, I'm guessing it would be require 16bit triplets and then the required calc to transform that to the desired colour would be pretty arduous.
I wonder if there's another way to achieve the result you are after?0 -

I think you may have hit the nail on the head. The color range parameters are very complex, and so C1 developers don't break them out to individual controls. All you get is a reference to them. You can this copy them from one variant to another,but you can't adjust the indifividual parameters. As a consequence II wonder if Applescript may not be able to save them.
This typically works for referenced value, but I did not get it to work here:get contents of someReference
This doesn't crash, but as best as I can tell, its still a reference tothe color editor settings of the variantset R1 to (get color editor settings of adjustments of layer "Background")0 -
Thanks all for your help. I'm new to AppleScripts, I downloaded Script Debugger and that has helped a lot. I have found a partial alternative solution, though I think that the color editor options would have been easier. 0
