Problem with AXPosition
Hi, Why the "AXPosition" doesn't return a window position in another workspace like "AXSize"? Someone already had this problem? AXUIElementCopyAttributeValue(element, (CFStringRef)@"AXPosition", &thePosition); AXUIElementCopyAttributeValue(element, (CFStringRef)@"AXSize", &theSize); Thanks! -- Atenciosamente, Diego Alvarez Nogueira Blog: http://diegonogueira.com.br | http://papoinformal.com Skype: nogueiradiego Twitter: @nogueiradiego ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: How can i change a app position and size?
Thank you,
But i have one more doubt:
How can i get the WindowID(window number) using AXUIElementRef? There is a way
to get this?
AXUIElementRef element = AXUIElementCreateApplication(pid);
Thanks!

Re: How can i change a app position and size?
Sorry, i am new in cocoa, i've searched a lot about how can i do this.
I'm capturing the bounds in this way:
===
CFArrayRef windowList = CGWindowListCopyWindowInfo(kCGWindowListOptionAll,
kCGNullWindowID);
for (NSMutableDictionary* entry in (NSArray*) windowList) {
NSString *appPID = [entry objectForKey:(id)kCGWindowOwnerPID];
NSString *appName = [entry objectForKey:(id)kCGWindowOwnerName];
NSString *appWorkSpace= [entry objectForKey:(id)kCGWindowWorkspace];
NSString *appWindowID = [entry objectForKey:(id)kCGWindowNumber];
CGRect bounds;
CGRectMakeWithDictionaryRepresentation((CFDictionaryRef)[entry
objectForKey:(id)kCGWindowBounds], &bounds);
NSString *originString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.0f/%.0f",
bounds.origin.x, bounds.origin.y];
[entry setObject:originString forKey:@"windowOrigin"];
NSString *sizeString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.0f*%.0f",
bounds.size.width, bounds.size.height];
[entry setObject:sizeString forKey:@"windowSize"];
}
1)Why do I have some differences in get bounds between cocoa and applescript?
for instance: on 'originString' and 'sizeString' are
returned({1920,106,1280,800}) and with applescript ("set _bounds to get bounds
of window window_number") are returned ({1920, 106, 3200, 906}).
2) How can i apply this bounds with cocoa? for instance, move and resize my
safari and terminal application.
Thanks a lot!
Best,
Diego Nogueira
