opening the image? I need solutions for both OS9 & X.
I think your best bet for this is probably iView MediaPro. Accessing a
folder full of images with it is much quicker than opening them in an image
editor, especially if you open in list view (which can be configured to
display the info you want to see).
Here's a sample script that opens a folder of your choosing and displays
info about the first image in the iView catalog that is created.
choose folder with prompt "Select a folder of images:" returning theFolder
tell application "iView MediaPro"
activate
make window --prevents iView from loading images into existing window
open theFolder
repeat --primitive loop checks if catalog has finished building yet
set startCount to count of objects of window 1
delay 1
set endCount to count of objects of window 1
if startCount = endCount then exit repeat
end repeat
tell object 1 of window 1
set {p, x, y, r, d} to {path, width, height, resolution, color depth}
end tell
display dialog "Info for " & p & "
Width: " & x & "
Height: " & y & "
Resolution: " & r & "
Colour Depth: " & d
end tell
