title: Applescript to show Apple menu bar items
body: <p>I am an Applescript newbie. I want to know Applescript to show the Apple menu bar items from an arbitrary application (but the many bar should remain for the orginal application).</p>
  
  <p>I tried the following script, using Finder as a kind of dummy app, but it did not work.</p>
  
  <pre><code>tell application "System Events"
      tell process "Finder"
          tell menu bar 1
              click menu bar item "Apple"
          end tell
      end tell
  end tell
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone help?</p>
  
  <p>PS-1: I want to know this because Control-F2 to move focus to menu bar often does not work, as reported in the following link:
