[proFit-list] changing x and y axis range with applescript?

[Dave]

Hi Kurt,
	That's progress, but I'm still running into trouble. I can't seem to access any of the properties of a curve. One thing I'm wondering, are "first" and "last" reserved keywords in Applescript?

See below. Thanks!

Dave


tell application "pro Fit 6.2.1"
	-- these compile but don't execute
	get line dash of xAxis of curves 1 of shape "1" of window 1
	get name of xAxis of curves 1 of shape "1" of window 1
	set ax to xAxis of curves 1 of shape "1" of window 1
	-- these don't compile
	get first of xAxis of curves 1 of shape "1" of window 1	
	set first of ax to -10
end tell

Error:

error "pro Fit 6.2.1 got an error: Cannot handle this object class. [System error -1723]" number -1723 from line dash of xAxis of curves 1 of shape "1" of window 1
