Feature Request - HS.NewTimeEvent()

[ArbWare]

When scripting with the hs.newtimeevent() function.

I would like the ability to set the

"Do Not Log This Event" check box on the created event.

I use the hs.newtimeevent() function extensively.. and this would help reduce the amount of information in the log. (unless i want to debug.. then i would not set the checkbox in the script)

I am not sure if this would also take care of the issue raised in the thread:

http://board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=136771

This thread is asking for the ability to disable the message
--------------------------------

Info

Deleting event after run "Eventname"

--------------------------------
that is logged when a delayed event is automatically deleted.

These might be two separate issues. I do not know.

Thank you.

This will not only happen with hs.newtimeevent but also with all delayed events, which is the main problem for me.

I support this request 100%.

Let me add my enthusiastic support for this request. My BasicStat script controls X10 thermostats. For each temperature change reported by the thermostat, it sends two X10 preset dim levels. For maximizing HS's multi-threaded performance, my script breaks up handling each received X10 into a high-priority "X10 Received" which only grabs the X10 packet and pushes it into a queue before it's lost to the next X10 reception. The normal-priority "X10 Received Processing" then is not time-critical to pop the received queue and act on it. I've implemented it so that "X10 Received" will DelayTrigger "X10 Received Processing" in a new thread so HS can effectively manage its processes.

But with the always-logged nature of delayed events, I get four log lines of extraneous for every one line of information:

11/19/2009 1:28:55 PM	Info			Event Trigger "K X10 Received Processing (delayed event)"
