Here's an improvement to a one-line script I talked about a while back. This new script will prompt you to choose one of the running apps, and then one of the windows of that app. Then it will resize and position that window. I use this to resize windows perfectly before doing tutorials. You could do the same, or maybe you have another reason to want to tame your windows. I suppose you could expand the script more with variations on the position and size that you could choose from a list. Here is the code: var app = Application.currentApplication(); app.includeStandardAdditions = true; var system = Application("System Events"); var appList = Application("System Events").applicationProcesses.whose({ visible: true}).name(); var whichAppName = app.chooseFromList(appList, {withPrompt: "Select App:", defaultItems: ["Safari"]}); var whichApp = Application(whichAppName[0]); var windowList = whichApp.windows.name(); var whichWindowName = app.chooseFromList(windowList, {withPrompt: "Select Window:", defaultItems: windowList[0]}); if (whichWindowName != false) { whichApp.windows[whichWindowName[0]].bounds = {"x":0, "y":0, "width":1280, "height":697}; }
