The view is by Icons, 128 pixels, snap to grid, display infos and preview file (instead of default application icon)...


Yes, you read correctly: "bounds:{0, 44, 1088, 2053}"; 1088 is OK for a 1280 x 854 PowerBook 15" screen, but 2053 pixels tall is a bit too much: nearly three times the available monitor height.

Since the 10.4 original bug on position and bounds have not been corrected (even on Tiger 10.4.7!) more than 14 month after the original release (original bug...), I have to ask here:

did you know how I can resize "to the original hardware screen" ?


Hello Emile

Thanks to Kai, I may pass what I found to be the easiest way to fit your needs:

tell application "Finder"
set fenetre to window 1
set {bounds of fenetre, v} to {{0, 44,1088,800}, fenetre's toolbar visible}
set {fenetre's toolbar visible, fenetre's toolbar visible} to {not v, v}
end tell


With this trick, the window will get a normal size and the bounds would be "registered" by the Finder.
Of course, it assumes that the odd window is at Front.
