creating a dmg

hello,

has anybody got a working solution please, for creating a .dmg and (most poignantly) setting it's layout, via AS/hdiutil?

my problem, as i hope many of you know is that the .dmg fails to remember it's position without some sort of physical user interaction (which isn't a option for me). i've read various suggestions based around simulating a user click, but I haven't managed to get any to work for me. it "looks like" they work until you try and create a .dmg with a different volume name. there's some wierd voodoo going on that i don't understand.

i need to create 200+ dmg's (same basic layout, just different file/volume names) so need a fully scriptable solution, which can be left to run overnight with no human interaction. the script itself only creates 1 dmg, from a specified folder, another app is preparing the folder/files and calling the script. what i've got would work, if only the window position would get saved!!!

cheers,
rich
