The Omni Group Forums - View Single Post - Running scripts from OF toolbar

RobTrew

It seems that not all scripts can be successfully run from the OF toolbar.

In another post I reported that static variables lose their state between runs, and here is a script which runs happily from a script editor, but will immediately crash Omnifocus (build 98208) if you try to run it from the toolbar.

Code:

tell application "OmniFocus"
	close every window
	tell default document
		make new document window with properties {focus:{}, search term:""}
	end tell
end tell

I don't recommend that you try this, incidentally.

A better approach is to assign Quicksilver keyboard triggers to particular applescripts. (The script above, for example, runs fine when launched from the keyboard by Quicksilver).
