Hi,

Nigel, this is an idea that I will check as soon as I can, Thanks.

In the mean time I realized that I can get anything in the "Open Recent" menu (in Script Editor and also in Preview, so I think in any application that support the feature).

A buggy Snow Leopard install ?

[I will try to boot from an older install done on an external hard disk this evening]

Emile

I don't know how to change it, but faster work-rounds are to change the
window's target momentarily or, better still, flip its view setting.
Switching to list view and back produces a visual "whoosh" effect that
you might get to like.:)

   tell application "Finder"
     -- Keyboard shortcut
     set fw to front Finder window

     -- Set the variable
     set IcnName to "Icon.png"

     -- Change the file position
     tell fw
       if (item IcnName exists) then
         set position of item IcnName to {630, 74}
         set {current view, current view} to {list view, icon view}
       end if
     end tell
   end tell
