How do I show Finder menu-bar icon names?
This may be known as the Status-menu.
The associated application names would do.
The application name is buried within the binary of the menu bar extra item, so AppleScript cannot get at it. You can get the description of the menu bar extra item, if the developer chose to give it a name. Malwarebytes did not as you can see from this unsorted, AppleScript output based on the following menu bar extras:
tell application "System Events"
get description of every menu bar item of every menu bar of process "SystemUIServer"
end tell
Result:
{{"Notification Center", "Siri", "VPN", "Wi-Fi, four of four bars, with bifrost 5GHz.", "bluetooth", "time machine", "text input", "Clock", "User", "volume 44%"}}
PS: Right-click on the Finder menu bar on either end of it does not present a viewing choice such as described by others. I am using macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G65).
Well, I was very specific in my original question.
Menu-bar and Status Menu are NOT the Toolbar.
So THIS reply makes sense. Thanks Barney.
