A script to resize frontmost two windows to fill screen
Bless you! This is one basic functionality that Windoze has that Mac hasn't had that I've missed for ages. Works great.

Is there a file in /Library/Preferences called com.apple.windowserver.plist? This is where the defaults system reads the windowserver information from. If for some reason that file isn't there (might need Developer Tools installed??? or maybe it only shows up as accessible if assistive access is enabled???) then that could be why you're getting that error.

This still only works on the frontmost application though, not all open windows.

I don't have access to my web server as I'm still home from school for the break (and making changes over dial-up is very slow), so I can't post the script on my site until next week, but I'll paste the code here for now. Sorry for taking up all this space on the comments page...
Here is a beta version of a script that should tile visible (not hidden / closed) windows of all applications. It seems a little buggy, but so far has worked without error other than overlapping some windows by a few pixels.
If you find any bugs, let me know.---

I've done a version of the script which will work for any number of windows, ignores invisible windows and windows with no title (adium seems to have a title-less window which one can't see though it's marked as "visible"). You can specify your preference for number of columns (which defaults to 2). If you run it and there's only one window, it'll just make that one window will the screen.

Cool script. One thing wasn't working for me though:
Maybe ceil was a type-o? After some messing around, I figured out it should be changed to this:
I also added a special case if the number of windows is less than the number of columns preference.
So here's the complete script with those changes:
ignore minimized windows and fix the resizing of windows in Finder
I further hacked this script to ignore minimized windows and fix the resizing of windows in Finder due to the weird menubarHeight 44 instead of 22 bug. Here's the updated script:

I dont have a /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver file on my machine. What do I do to create one? Are you aware of alternative ways to get the size of the displays? Do they work with two displays? |
