Hi all,
I was thinking that I already asked that, but a simple search failed, so I
report it now and here.
On version prior to Tiger, the following AppleScript place the front window at
location 0,44 (X:0, Y:44): leftmost position, just below the menubar.
tell application "Finder"
set position of front window to {0, 44}
end tell
With Tiger, this (seems to) works at first, but if you close the window and
reopen it, that window returns in the previous window location.
I restate from the beginning:
a. the front window position is {250, 175} (for example),
b. you run the above acript,
c. that front window goes at position {0,44} as asked,
d. close the front window, open it back and you can see the window at position
{250,175}.
At this point, I would say: "It’s a bug!". But since Tiger shows so many
differences from Panther (and other previous Mac OS X versions), that it may be
a simple difference / I have to make some change to make it work with Tiger.
What’s your feeling on that subject ?
TIA,
Emile
