Script to make mutiple copies of a task in a "review" action list with different start dates Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
Hi,
Spent the past 2 weeks setting up Omnifocus to work for me, and the results are already showing. One script I would love, would be to take something from my Reading List, and make copies in a Review single-action list with predefined start dates.
Eg. Finish reading a book(or a reading for uni) and have my evernote notes linked to it. Then run the script, which makes 5 copies of the task in a "Review" single-action list with the start dates 3 days from now, 3 weeks, 3m, 1yr, 2yr.

I've made some simple applescripts before, but never one for omnifocus. Can anyone give me some pointers? Really just need to know how to refer to the currently highlighted task, and how to create a new task in a defined action list. I should be able to set properties (start dates)

Any guidance would be much appreciated

James
