Outlook add-in activation rule for compose new appointment

Question

I'm developing an Outlook mail app using vs 2015. I want to show my add-in only when the existing calendar item is opened. When I have the FormType as ReadOrEdit in Rule Collection of manifest, the add-in shows for the appointment while creating itself. i.e. new appointment also has add-in. I don't want to show the add-in while creating a new appointment.

Is there any way to achieve this?

Change your FormType to Read. Then it will be shown only when you open existing one.

Changing FormType to Read doesn't help. Read works for meeting appointment created by other users. If the user is the Organizer of the appointment, add-in doesn't show.
