Why, oh why, isn't there a "stretch in whichever direction fits the
desktop while keeping the aspect ratio" option in the Desktop and
Screensaver prefs panel? Windows has such an option. All
the modern X desktop picture managers have such an option (xsetroot
didn't, but then it doesn't do anything but tiling. But xv
did!) This behavior is so logical it is the default
when you use ImageMagick to resize an image; you have to specifically
indicate when you want the aspect ratio violated to get exactly the
specified target size.
I just don't get it.
That concludes this Special Vent. We now return you to your regular AppleScript discussion, already in progress.
