Creating multiple desktop picture collections (revisited)
Authored by: alextaylor on Aug 03, '04 03:40:26PM
I'm using 10.3.4 and my Collections.plist file looks nothing like your example. More like this:
(    
	{
        identifier = appleBackground;
        path = "/Library/Desktop Pictures";
        showScalingPopUp = NO;
    },
    
    {
        identifier = nature;
        path = "/Library/Desktop Pictures/Nature";
        showScalingPopUp = NO;
    },
    
    {
        identifier = abstract;
        path = "/Library/Desktop Pictures/Abstract";
        showScalingPopUp = NO;
    },
    
    {
        identifier = solidColors;
        path = "/Library/Desktop Pictures/Solid Colors";
        showScalingPopUp = NO;
    },

    {
        identifier = usersPictures;
        path = "~/Pictures";
        showScalingPopUp = YES;
    }
)
Making any changes causes most options to disappear in the Desktop Display Dialog. Also you will note that all but one
showScalingPopUp
is set to "NO" even though the popup option existes for each instance in the Desktop Display Dialog. What's up?

I was wrong about the popup thing. I wasn't selecting a new image in the categories that have it turned off, just selecting the category itself. However the file Collections.plist file IS formated completely differently for me and doesn't take kindly to the edits suggested.
