Is it possible to inspect the main application menu of some already running application

  • 0

Is it possible to inspect the main application menu of some already running application and execute commands from this menu? For example retrieve the whole main menu hierarchy of Safari and execute the File → New Tab command (by its name, not using the keyboard shortcut). I’m interested in an Objective-C solution.
