Tracking events

Script Editor allows you to store a log of working history of script actions and results. You can use the Event Log History to examine script results to perform debugging and fine-tuning of your scripts.

To track events:

Step 1

Choose Window > Event Log History.

Step 2

Choose the type of event information to be logged from the pop-up menu.

As you run your script, the events performed by the script are displayed in the Event Log History. Events are displayed in a hierarchy. Click the disclosure triangle next to an event to see the items within it.

Click Show Script, or double-click an event to open the script in a separate window.

You can also view and search the logs by selecting Event Log in the Script Editor window.

You can modify the settings for the Event Log History in Script Editor preferences.
