Speaking of dictionaries I took the view setting script that Kok Ooi
Kong <email@hidden> edited and wanted to add a zoom to it.
The finder dictionary shows;
zoomable boolean [r/o] -- Is the window zoomable?
zoomed boolean -- Is the window zoomed?
zoomed full size boolean -- Is the window zoomed to the full size of
the screen? (can only be set, not read)
zoomable does as expected
zoomed is used to zoom the window, set to true
zoomed full size, Haven't figures out what this does yet.
Either I'm dense or these items are confused, so much for intuitive stuff.
What happens if you do this? To my mind the window ought to
zoom/unzoom or unzoom/zoom and end up in its original state. This is
not what happens here.
tell application "Finder"
activate
repeat 2 times
set zoomed of window 1 to not zoomed of window 1
update target of window 1
end repeat
end tell
I can't update a window (Finder gives an error) but I can apparently
send a command to update the target of a window -- whether the
command is heard may be another matter. This does not strike me as
normal.
'set zoomed full size...' gives me an error.
I notice that in the Finder you can get the bounds and the position
of a window, but not its size. Since <<class cwin>> has always been a
common class, I don't understand why in our new cocoa apps (Terminal
excepted) it is not possible to get all three of these properties.
