Hello all,

Is there a way for an AppleScript cue to refer to itself,
independently of the Active Cue? Just looking for the appropriate
syntax.

Thanks!

I tend to use "last item of (active cues as list)" to allow a Script Cue to identify itself. Otherwise, give it a number X and it becomes 'cue "X"' (see http://wiki.figure53.com/QLab+Scripts+and+Macros#x-Basics-Starting%20a%20cue).
