It seems, at least at my house, when changing the background image of
a folder in Snow Leopard, if I set the background picture of icon view
options of window of folder, the folder, when copied to a Leopard
machine does not display the background.
Here's more or less what I'm doing. For testing, I put an image file
named "my.png" inside a new folder named "test_folder" on the desktop.
I run this script to choose the folder and set its bg img to the
my.png file it contains:
tell me to set x to ((choose folder) as text)
set bgimg to (x & "my.png") as text
tell application "Finder" to set background picture of icon view
options of window of folder x to bgimg
It works on both Leopard and Snow Leopard. But when a folder so
treated on Snow Leopard is copied to Leopard, the image does not
display. Going from Leopard to Snow Leopard works as expected.
Any thoughts appreciated, as usual.
