This a question related to building installers in general, not necessarily using the Installer.app packages. So I hope I'm on topic here. As the last step in creating an insataller I am currently setting up a Finder window with the layout and the contents I want to deliver. Then I create a disk image file from that folder. My problem is that the mounted image does not open in the same layout that I specified before creating the Finder window. So my question is: How do I get an image to open a Finder window with a certain layout after mounting it in the Finder? I have tried using AppleScript to 'update' the items contained in the window as well as the folder shown in the window as well. I have also noticed that there is no .DS_Store file at the top level of my Finder window. And I see no way to force one to be created. I know this can be done because many products delivered on disk images invariably open to custom view settings and layout in the Finder. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
