tell application "System Events" to keystroke "q" using {control down, command down}worked like a charm. If you want to add an answer I'm going to accept it. Thanks!

| Feb 6, 2020 at 10:40 | comment | added | floatingpurr | Yes, I know there is a built-in button. However, I'd like to group all my custom buttons under the QuickAction button. | |
