How to open application (Preview) at a specific size

HI,

I use the following

tell application "Preview"
set bounds of window 1 to {0, 22, 1450, 1050}
end tell

I trigger this with a quickeys shortcut key, but if you're using this with FMP you could set up a script to run it automatically

Regards,

Graham

Hi there,

After having "enabled" Preview to be "AppleScriptable" I am now trying to
figure out how to open the application and having the opened window resized
and placed to my specifications.

EG.: I would like to be able to have Preview take up the right half of my
1920x1200 px. iMac (where the other half is being used for a FileMaker Pro
application - FMP will then be able to get Preview to open the images who's
paths are stored in the db).
