You can, but mind it's still very rough and nowhere near ready for
primetime. Right now its major problem is lousy handling of enums,
and this'll cause some stuff to barf. (This'll be sorted by the next
release, once I've figured out a decent solution.)
Anyway, using v0.2.0:
import AppScripting as AS
omnigraffle = AS.app('OmniGraffle.app')
omnigraffle.documents[0].graphics.end.make(
new='shape',
with_properties={
'origin': [100, 100],
'size': [20, 20]})
Note here that AS provides a special-case for the 'make' command,
whereby it can use the reference upon which it's called as its 'at'
parameter (see Manual.txt for details). But if that freaks you out,
you can still use the 'traditional' form:
omnigraffle.make(
new='shape',
at=omnigraffle.documents[0].graphics.end
with_properties={
'origin': [100, 100],
'size': [20, 20]})
