When I execute the AppleScript listed below in the AppleScript Editor it works
in about 1 second. Take the same script, put in in a LiveCode field and do
field “name” as AppleScript and it takes between 1 and 2 minutes to do!
1. Why?
2. How can I make it run quickly?
Here is the AppleScript. It makes an event at the date and time and gets info
on it so that it is ready to add addresses and send out. The finished stack
will show how to modify the newly created meeting and delete it. I plan on
doing the same functions for Outlook on the Mac as a way to compare them.
set calendarName to "Work"
set theSummary to "Title of the event goes here 0775-4944"
set theDescrption to "Description of event goes here."
--set theLocation to ""
set startDate to "October 1, 2014 9:30:00 AM"
set endDate to "October 1, 2014 1:00:00 PM"
set startDate to date startDate
set endDate to date endDate
tell application "Calendar"
activate
tell (first calendar whose name is calendarName)
set vEventInfo to make new event at end of events with
properties {summary:theSummary, start date:startDate, end date:endDate,
description:theDescrption}
copy uid to cID --
copy vEventInfo's uid to eID --this works
save
end tell
reload calendars
view calendar at startDate
show vEventInfo
end tell
set the clipboard to eID
--display dialog "Event " & eID & " of Calendar " & cID
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Calendar"
keystroke "i" using command down
end tell
end tell
