It's a pity Omni doesn't monitor its forums more closely!

In my inspection of the documentation I ended up making a (somewhat) amusing round trip.

@nutellacrepe had a question here https://discourse.omnigroup.com/t/i-never-get-a-plug-in-preferences-window about the automation menu. Fairly certain there is nothing in the documentation built into the app (to which we have been directed by @kcase) I began rooting around on the website and came upon this “manual,” the only OO for Mac manual I could find there:

https://support.omnigroup.com/documentation/omnioutliner/mac/5.7/en/menu-commands-and-keyboard-shortcuts/#the-automation-menu

I was puzzled until I noticed it apparently describes an older version of OO than I have. And it directs out to @sal’s site and back out here too: “For sample Plug-Ins and to learn more about scripting OmniOutliner, visit the Omni Automation website, or join the discussion on our forums.”

So here I am back out in the forums, which, it seems, are even being considered for the chopping block rather than being considered a valuable support channel commonly provided by developers of premium software… Yikes!
