Scripting Keynote via Automator or similar...

Hi,


I'd like to script Keynote via Automator (or similar). One task (for example) would be to: take the first build on every slide and change it from "on click" to "after transition".

Is this possible? And does anyone know any good tutorials for Automator/Keynote scripting?


Thank you!

Mac mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

Possible? Yes. If you want to become proficient in scripting, I would recommend a good book (the Missing Manual series are among the best, in my opinion). If you want to tinker and have time to play around with trial and error, search for Automator scripts and see what other people have done. I came across a couple of tutorial websites, but they seem to be a bit dated (2006/2007). I don't know how much Automator has changed across OS X revisions.


If you get stuck, try the Mac OS X Technologies discussion forum.
