Maybe someone could help with a small annoyance I haven't able to figure
out?
There are six partitions/disks on my desktop. The Finder has always had a
nasty habit of not putting them in the order that I'd like to see them
appear. So under OS9, I had a little applet in the startup items that
told the Finder to set the correct desktop position for each partition
and disk.
I'm now on 10.2.8, that annoying Finder habit is still there, but I
haven't been able to replicate the old script. Any suggestions on how to
set desktop item positions under OSX?
A couple of months back someone referred to this seemingly trivial
task as the new "holy grail of AppleScript". Which in plain English
means you can't do it.
So trivial, so not happening. I just nixed the drive icons from the
desktop. Better out of sight than out of order.
