I want to create a button in Filemaker to scroll through records. The
Filemaker method is to click their built in icon in the status area to
move through records but it only moves one record per click. I want a
button that will scroll as long as the button is down.
In Applescript I have this that works fine for a group of records:
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate
set myRecords to count record of first document
set myAmmended to myRecords - 1
go to record 1
repeat with x from 1 to myAmmended
delay 0.6
go to record after current record
end repeat
end tell
However when the code is placed in the Filemaker Scriptmaker it will not
show the records scrolling through. Probably a window refresh problem. It
also fails to address the problem of stopping the action when the mouse
is raised.
Any suggestions?
Kelvin.
