| Hi everybody,
with OSX 10.5.8 I used the following script (which I had found somewhere in the internet)
try
tell application "Finder"
set the Preview_app to (application file id "com.apple.Preview") as alias
end tell
set the plist_filepath to the quoted form of ((POSIX path of the Preview_app) & "Contents/Info")
do shell script "defaults write " & the plist_filepath & space & "NSAppleScriptEnabled -bool YES"
end try
in order to make Preview.app scriptable. The reason was that I wanted to get the windows of Preview.app to a defined position on my screen with scripting.
Now, having moved to Snow Leopard, the script above doesn't work anymore, Preview.app is no longer scriptable.
Is there another possibility, either acchieving scripting Preview.app or using another programm which can open .jpg files and is scriptable, in order to put the pictures to a defined position on the screen?
Thanks for suggestions Jobst Gmeiner
