Could you please give an example or point to the guide to do that?
I have only been able to query the Finder itself for the selection,
so it gives the selected items of only the front window. I need the
selected items on all open windows, along with items on the desktop.
It appears that you may have to bring each window to the front and
get the
Finder's selection on it, collecting the results in a list. And you'll
probably have to close all the windows to get the selection on the
desktop,
then reopen the windows.
It's too bad the Finder's dictionary does not implement a 'selected'
property on each Finder item. Then you could 'get every Finder item
of every
window whose selected is true', and it would be very fast. (That
would still
leave out the desktop.)
