Script Archive: 10-Minute Plays

As a playwright, you're likely no stranger to the thrill of seeing your work come to life on stage. But sometimes, the process of getting your script ready for production can be just as daunting as the final performance itself. That's why we've put together this guide to help you navigate the world of local notifications in FileMaker Go.

The Prepare Report Now Script

Let's start with the basics. When a user taps the 'Prepare Now' button, the Process Notification script runs the Prepare Report Now script. This script is designed to help you get your play ready for production by sending reminders and notifications at key stages of the process.

Adult, Comedy, Drama, and College Categories

The West Michigan Playwrights' Script Archive has recently expanded its categories to include Adult, Comedy, Drama, and College plays. This means that any playwright enrolled in a West Michigan college during the 2023-24 Academic Year is eligible to submit their work.

Submit Your Play

Are you ready to share your script with the world? The submission process is easy. Simply fill out the online form and attach your play. Don't forget to specify which category it falls under – Adult, Comedy, Drama, or College.

The Process Notification Script

This script is the heart of our notification system. When a user taps the 'Snooze' button, the Process Notification script runs again to send a reminder after 10 minutes. This script is designed to help you stay on track and keep your play moving forward.

Queuing Notifications

Did you know that you can queue notifications ahead of time? This means that you can schedule reminders for specific times or events, such as deadlines or rehearsals. Simply specify the delay in seconds, and the notification will be queued until then.

Configure Local Notification Example 2

Let's take a closer look at how to configure local notifications. You can clear a queued notification by using the 'Clear' button. This is useful if you need to cancel a reminder or change its timing.

Notification Parameters

The Process Notification script has several parameters that allow you to customize your notifications. These include:

* Button 1, 2, or 3 Foreground: Specifies whether tapping the button should move FileMaker Go to the foreground or keep it in the background.

* Button 1, 2, or 3 Label: Specifies the label for each button in the notification alert.

* Body: Specifies the text for the notification alert.

* Title: Specifies the title of the notification alert.

* Delay: Specifies the number of seconds to wait before queuing the notification.

Script Parameters

The Process Notification script also has several script parameters that allow you to customize your notifications. These include:

* Script: Specifies the script that runs after the user interacts with the notification.

* Name: Specifies the name of the local notification to queue or clear.

By mastering these scripts and parameters, you'll be able to create customized notifications that help you stay on track and bring your play to life. Whether you're a seasoned playwright or just starting out, we hope this guide has been helpful in demystifying the world of local notifications in FileMaker Go. Happy writing!
