Applescript: on clicking Menu Bar item via gui script

Question

I\'m trying to make an applescript for an application called F.lux that clicks the menu item \"Disable for an Hour\" as indicated in the screenshot below:

Answer 1

This worked for me, but there is a delay of about 5 seconds after the first click command.

tell application "System Events" to tell process "Flux"
    tell menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
        click
        click menu item "Disable for an hour" of menu 1
    end tell
end tell

One workaround is to use ignoring application responses and terminate System Events after the click command:

ignoring application responses
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Flux"
        click menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
    end tell
end ignoring
do shell script "killall System\\ Events"
delay 0.1
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Flux"
    tell menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
        click menu item "Disable for an hour" of menu 1
    end tell
end tell
