It seems that AppleScript sets a busy cursor when an application is
launched, even when it's asked to display an alert.
For example, if I write a simple script like:
set reply to display alert "Do you want to see a busy cursor?"
buttons {"No", "Never"}
then save it as an "Application Bundle" and launch it, it displays
an alert with a busy cursor rather than an arrow cursor, and then
the user has to click on a button with the busy cursor.
Is this intended behaviour? Is there a workaround?
Hi Brett,
I can confirm this behavior on 10.5.3 (both applets and droplets). I
had not noticed it this behavior in AppleScript application bundles in
previous versions of 10.5 but did for windows created by my OSA
components for other languages.
Thanks,
Philip Aker
