CallScriptImmediately

[andries]

I am playing around with the function CallScriptImmediately.

When I place this function as an auto-enter in my database definition, it is really really slow, even causes FileMaker to crash sometimes.

This issue is only occurs in FM 11, not in FM 10 on a Mac OS X 10.5.

When running it from the dataviewer there is no problem (except it is called many times -) ).

I've replicated this issue and am looking into it now. I've found that if you click away from filemaker to the finder or another application it let's the script run, so you may want to do this for now as a workaround when making new records.

Indeed I forgot to tell that.

It even works if you have the status bar shown by navigating to the next record. It is the layout that freezes, in some way... My workaround for now is the FMButler DoScript plugin.

Is it actually possible to define the "Control" of the current script running (if there is any) like: Pause, Resume, Halt,... ?

Thanks !
