AppleScript - How do I make multiple dialogs display at the same time?

Is it possible to make more than one dialog be displayed at one time with AppleScript? Thanks in advance.

You can see what is available in the Standard Additions dictionary. There are a (very) few things you can fake, but AppleScript dialogs are designed for simple feedback.

How do I view multiple inbox folders at the same time in Mail?

I want to configure Mail to show me multiple inbox folders at the same time. I want to be able to split the screen and show in the top section unread messages, then messages I've marked with label A, then messsges I've marked with label B, then everything else in my inbox (like using the multiple inbox feature in Gmail). Is this possible?

Just figured it out - I can select multiple messages as you suggested when I am not in full screen mode.
So once I come out of full screen mode - then the multiple windows open.

How do you open multiple email messages at the same time on Mail?

Hi,
are there any preferences to control how emails are opened from Mail client.
Currently I can only open one emil at a time and can not toggle between messages or even toggle between the inbox view and a single message. This is very frustrating especially if you want to toggle across multiple messages.
Thanks for the help.

How do you register multiple key presses at the same time?

Hi. I'm trying to write a first person game in OpenGL and I'm having some trouble with key listening. Right now I just use the basic AWT KeyListener. The problem that arises is that whenever I hold down a key, such as a movement key, there is a short pause after it moves me in the appropriate direction, and only after the pause does it start continuously moving me. In addition to that, I can't press multiple keys at once to get diagonal movement (I use WASD for movement). Is there something I can do with AWT to fix both of these problems, or is there something other than AWT that I should use that would be better?

the pause is the typomatic rate of the keyboard, you can avoid that by using the keyPressed and setting a flag then a sleep(myDelayTime).... if they keyRelease--and clearing of the flag--hasn't happened after the sleep, then you're key is still down so keep firing, moving, or what ever.

How do I interpret multiple footage files at the same time in AME CC?

I have about 50 ProRes QT files that I need to transcode. But AME CC is seeing them as Square and I need to set them all as D1. When I select all my files in the Qeue and go to interpret footage, the option is grayed out.
I'm running on Mac OS X 10.7 if that helps at all.

If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

You will need to create a new Apple ID for your GameCenter and iCloud services. You can continue to use the current Apple ID you share with your Mom for access to iTunes Store purchases if you wish.

If i have my mac mini and my mac air connected to my thunderbolt display at the same time how do I switch between each of them without unplugging one of them? (By the way im mirroring my macbook air to my thunderbolt display not dual screening it)

How can i connect to a LAN and external display at the same time using the mini-displayport?

Hi all,
At work i'm connected to the Lan via an adapter and the mini displayport. I want to use my external display at the same time, which use the same mini displayport. Are there any splitters available to use both at the same time? Are there any other alternatives?
Thanks,

How to make 2 balls move at the same time

I am working on an app in xcode and I need to make 2 balls move at the same time. When I try to use the same code for both of the balls, the 2 CGPoints interfere. Here is my code in the .m file.
@synthesize ball, ball2;
-(void) onTimer {
        ball.center = CGPointMake(ball.center.x+pos.x,ball.center.y+pos.y);
        if(ball.center.x > 295 || ball.center.x < 10)
            pos.x = -pos.x;
        if(ball.center.y > 435 || ball.center.y < 35)
            pos.y = -pos.y;
- (void) onTimer2 {
ball2.center = CGPointMake(ball2.center.x+pos.x,ball2.center.y+pos.y);
if(ball2.center.x > 295 || ball2.center.x < 10)
pos.x = -pos.x;
if(ball2.center.y > 435 || ball2.center.y < 35)
pos.y = -pos.y;
[self collision];
- (void)viewDidLoad
          [[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.04 target:self selector:@selector(onTimer) userInfo:nil repeats:YES] retain];
    [[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.04 target:self selector:@selector(onTimer2) userInfo:nil repeats:YES] retain];
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
Here is my .h file
@interface game : UIViewController {
    IBOutlet UIImageView *ball;
    IBOutlet UIImageView *ball2;
@property(nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UIImageView *ball;
@property(nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UIImageView *ball2;

What do you mean by the 2 CGPoints interfere?
You're changing the location of the balls by pos.x and pos.y, where is the code for those? what is it doing?
Why have two timers? One timer would work , just have the code move both balls.
The refresh rate for the screen is 60hz. (60 time a second) You'll get better animation if you stick as close to this value as you can.

Problem running multiple folder actions at the same time

Hi,
Does anyone have some experience running multiple folder actions at the same time?
I've written a Applescript folder action that processes some files. When adding some files, the script starts and all goes well. The processing of each file takes a few minutes, but all files are processed correctly.
However, when adding some new files to the dropfolder, while the folder action is all ready processing other files dropped a few minutes earlier, the process that is all ready running immediately aborts and the folder action is relaunched on the new files, leaving the old files for what they are...
The same problem occurs with multiple folders, each having a folder action attached. When dropping files in "Folder A", the script starts processing. But if someone droppes files in "Folder B", The script of folder A aborts, and the script of folder B starts processing. When adding more files to the folders, the result is the same. In some casses, when the last dropped files are processed, the os continues where the operation was aborted on the previous files. But this not always happens. To make things worse, when you remove the items from the folders afterwords, the folder actions starts running again on items no longer present in the folder !!!!
Does anyone know how I can prevent the folder action being aborted when new files are dropped and placing the new files in "Hold", until the previous files are processed? How can I prevent a folder action being aborted when a item is dropped into another folder?
I've written a small script to test this behaviour. Just create one or more folders and attach the script below. Drop a item into the folder, wait a few seconds and drop another one in the same or another folder. To monitor what happens please check the console.
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
          set FolderName to this_folder as string
          set ItemName to added_items as string
          repeat with theIncrementValue from 1 to 15
delay 2
                    do shell script ("logger \"Folder: " & FolderName & " - Item: " & ItemName & " - Step: " & theIncrementValue & "\"")
          end repeat
          do shell script ("logger \"Folder: " & FolderName & " - Item: " & ItemName & " - Done...\"")
end adding folder items to
Thanks for any feedback.

That is pretty much the way Folder Actions work, especially since AppleScript is not multi-threaded. If you are using them as some intermediate step in a workflow, you might rethink the way you are handling the files (for example, use a droplet instead). Other options would be using launchd to watch a path or a shell script on a different thread.
