display alert timeout not functioning


  • Subject: display alert timeout not functioning

I am having a problem with the display alert not giving up immediately rather than after the timeout
Here is a simple example script that illustrates my problem.


set counter to 1
repeat while counter < 100
    tell me
        display alert counter giving up after 1
    end tell
    set counter to counter + 1
end repeat



The first alert stays up for 1 second and then most of the remaining 99 flash by with no delay. Occasionally one will stay up for the second, but this appears to be random.

Is there something I'm missing?
