| Thanks Yvan,
So far, it works well.
set numberOfWindows to count window open droppedItem as alias repeat 50 times if (count window) > numberOfWindows then exit repeat delay 0.1 end repeat

Currently I'm using the following. Is there a way to make the delay more appropriate to the time it takes for a picture to load?
A repeat while for example.
-- Script
tell application "GraphicConverter"
activate
open the droppedItem as alias
delay 1 -- need time
…
-- End Script
TIA,
I use a slightly different version :
set droppedItem to "" & (path to desktop) & "4test.txt" tell application "TextEdit" set nbw to count windows open droppedItem --as alias -- as alias isn’t required by TextEdit repeat 50 times if (count windows) > nbw then exit repeat delay 0.1 end repeat if (count windows) = nbw then error "The app was unable to open :" & return & droppedItem end tell
