A way to set the default display using AppleScript #97

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What feature or enhancement do you propose?

GrowlHelperApp should provide a property of the application that AppleScript 
scripts (and other 
clients, such as applications using the Scripting Bridge) can use to set the 
default display.

What problem does it solve/What benefit does it provide?

Users who frequently switch displays (e.g., to MailMe when they leave their 
computer) would be 
able to write scripts and add them to their Scripts menu to set the default 
display.

One risk of this feature would be that applications might use it to force Growl 
to display their notifications with 
a specific display. The ability to specify which display Growl uses for a 
notification/application is a frequent 
request from application developers, which we've repeatedly denied; I can 
easily see an application developer 
abusing this feature to achieve the same end, ignoring the reasons why we've 
refused to add it.

An alternative solution to the same problem would be to add a display-switching 
submenu to the Growl status 
item. (Didn't it have one previously?)

investigate adding this feature after addition of the notification flag to give 
growl a hint as to the desired style (user overrideable)

We have a ticket for suggested settings that would seem to address this better. 
Closing this over that ticket.
