I've seen a number of postings about how to position a window. But as a newbie, I can't seem to make sense of them for my situation.
What I want to do:
1) Open a specific QuickTime movie. (I can already do that part.)
2) Position it on the screen at these coordinates: 475 (from Top) 700 (from Left)
3) Set the window size to 475 px tall by 575 px wide. (I know I can use zoom settings, but I want the window to be the same as if I grabbed the lower right corner and resized it to my liking.)
4) Play the movie
BTW - if I use Bounds, it messes up the location of the play controls.
I need the code to be really specific because I just don't seem to understand how to use the other discussions to solve this for me. I need every step laid out for me. Something like the following (which doesn't work, of course):
tell application "QuickTime Player"
set window_position to {475, 700}
set window_size to {475, 575}
play movie
end tell
I'm using OS-X 10.4.8
