Reaction took a while because I was on holiday.

Many thanks in advance if you could script me something ;)

But I wonder: if you change the plist, will it take effect or do you have to log out? Or could you force the systempreferencepane to look at its plist when you stay logged in?

very curious

Willem

This information is in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist.

I'm hacking together a script for you :)

My desktop image is changing every 5 min (thats the way I like it). I want to make two scripts one will choose 'abstract' (at home) as a folder for desktop image and the other will choose 'nature' (for work).

Is there a way to script the "desktop and screensaver' systempreference pane?

this is what I got so far:

tell application "System Events"
click menu item "Bureaublad en schermbeveiliging" of menu "Weergave" of menu bar 1 of process "System Preferences" -- this will open the prefpane
..........
end tell
