ScriptsScriptsWindowthumbSofa Control uses AppleScript to control other applications. AppleScript is the language provided by Apple to do automated workflows and to control applications on the Mac. For each application that is supported by Sofa Control, a specialized script has been developed. These scripts define which actions on the remote control are mapped to a specific function of an application. Some of these scripts are very simple and just send keyboard shortcuts to a target application in order to control it. Other ones are much more plex as they use specific functionalities of the target applications to better control them.To see which scripts are installed on your system, open the Scripts window. To open the Scripts window, choose the menu item Installed Scripts from the Sofa Control Menu Script. The Scripts window gives you an overview about which scripts are installed and which of them are active. You can disable scripts by deselecting the checkbox in the column called Use. Disabled scripts are no longer used by Sofa Control, but the script is still installed on your system. If you want to remove the script from your system just press the minus button in the lower left hand corner of the window.Local ChangesScripts that are marked with a star in its name have local changes. This means that you have changed that script but the version number of the script has not been changed. With this marker, Sofa Control is able to find out if you have made local changes.

Some Scripts might be disabled as the required application is not installed on your system.
