AppleScript to enable Typinator when Todoist "Quick Entry" activates?

Ah ok that makes sense! So the AppleScript is indeed enabling them, but they're just not available because Typinator sees it as being frontmost... I have a macro that includes a small AppleScript to close the main Typinator window for this same reason, and then reopen it at the end of the macro. Let me dig it up and share it with you.

UPDATE: @splitpersonality, this AppleScript will determine if the main Typinator window is open, close it, and then reopen at the end. You can wrap your existing AppleScript with this one (let me know if you need help with that) and that should fix your issue.

tell application "System Events"
	tell application process "Typinator"
		
		if window "Typinator" exists then --determine if main window is open
			set winOpen to "true" --set that to a variable
			click button 2 of window "Typinator" --close main window
		end if
		
		# PUT YOUR MAIN SCRIPT HERE
		
		if winOpen is "true" then --determines if window was previously open
			do shell script "open /Applications/Typinator.app" --activate Typinator by path
		end if
		
	end tell
end tell

Unfortunately, Todoist's dialog window closes as well.

tell application "System Events"
	tell application process "Typinator"
		
		if window "Typinator" exists then --determine if main window is open
			set winOpen to "true" --set that to a variable
			click button 2 of window "Typinator" --close main window
		end if
		
		tell application "System Events"
			tell application process "Todoist"
				
				--pauses until window appears
				repeat until exists (first window whose subrole is "AXSystemDialog")
					delay 0.1
				end repeat
				
				--display notification that the window appeared
				display notification "Todoist AXSystemDialog Window Exists"
				
				--enable Typinator set
				tell application "Typinator"
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app Projects" to true
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app @Tags" to true
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app Text" to true
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app Word Sets" to true
				end tell
				
				--pauses until window disappears
				repeat until not (exists (first window whose subrole is "AXSystemDialog"))
					delay 0.1
				end repeat
				
				--disable Typinator set
				tell application "Typinator"
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app Projects" to false
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app @Tags" to false
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app Text" to false
					set enabled of rule set "Todoist.app Word Sets" to false
				end tell
				
				--display notification that the window disappeared
				display notification "Todoist AXSystemDialog Window Does Not Exist"
				
			end tell
		end tell
		
		if winOpen is "true" then --determines if window was previously open
			do shell script "open /Applications/Typinator.app" --activate Typinator by path
		end if
		
	end tell
end tell
