Nope, same error that way.

(Note that I'm posting this for the sake of anyone else trying to troubleshoot the script - I'm not expecting technical support from you! :) )

Would be interested to know whether this is occurring with the new version (which exports from selections in the right-hand content panel), and if so, on which line of code. (Also whether you are using OO Pro or plain OO - it is written for the former)

[Craig]

Yes, new version. Yes, OO Pro. Looked like the same error as before, so I assume the same location in the script I mentioned - the "project" in quotation marks after the doesn't-equal sign. (I've since deleted the script so can't confirm at the moment.)

You mean

set blnContext to (selected view mode identifier ≠ "project")

?

That seems surprising, at first glance ...

Oh, I've seen that problem: Tiger doesn't like the way Leopard encodes the ≠ character; I think Leopard uses Unicode and Tiger expects MacRoman or something along those lines.

The simple fix is to replace "≠" with "is not equal to".

Well, having done that, now I get "NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 3" with "selected trees" highlighted.

Thank you !

I have uploaded an amended version.

It seems, however, to judge by Craig's experience, that Leopard-baked Applescripts may have other problems on Tiger machines. I wonder if Apple is aware of this ?

I have uploaded a plain text (MacRoman) copy, and I have now downloaded and run it successfully on a Tiger machine with a simple set of data in Omnifocus.

Here's what I'm seeing with the latest (text) version.

Is this script still available? (getting a message from .mac that page can not be found.)

I just got done moving a ton of my Omnioutliner files into Omnifocus and I was busy arranging them when I tried to move some items back out to OmniOutliner Pro. They appear as links and they loose their hierarchy. I have been searching high and low and I found this thread.
I put the script into a new folder I labeled "Omnifocus" into the base level Library\Scripts folder but I don't understand how to drag the script onto the toolbar?

I am completely shocked that being able to export an outline to OO isn't a feature built right into Onmifocus.
