Weird. For me the icon is generated just fine. BTW, the icon is not generated 
by the script, but by the program. Perhaps the file you add does not have a 
file extension?

Luc,

That sounds like a great script. The first thing that came to mind: could you 
add a timer of some sort and then refresh/reload?

 Any chance of sharing?

Cheers,
Jason

Hi,

I have an AppleScript executing the following statements

add (POSIX file pdf) to beginning of linked files
auto file

It works perfectly except that the thumbnail is not generated. I am talking 
about that which appears in the item windown and in the right panel of the main 
window. I get a generic white document icon instead. Right-clicking on it and 
choosing “Reload” does create the thumbnail fine. It would be nice if the 
script was able to do that without my intervention!

Version 1.7.7 on MacOS 10.14.6.

Best wishes,

Luc J Bourhis

[Bibdesk-users] Thumbnail after adding PDF and autofiling

2020-07-13 Thread Luc Bourhis via Bibdesk-users
Hi,

I have an AppleScript executing the following statements

add (POSIX file pdf) to beginning of linked files
auto file

It works perfectly except that the thumbnail is not generated. I am talking 
about that which appears in the item windown and in the right panel of the main 
window. I get a generic white document icon instead. Right-clicking on it and 
choosing “Reload” does create the thumbnail fine. It would be nice if the 
script was able to do that without my intervention!

Version 1.7.7 on MacOS 10.14.6.

Best wishes,
