Antonio Russo <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDSINFO |CONFIRMED Resolution|WAITINGFORINFO |--- --- Comment #7 from Antonio Russo <[email protected]> --- Thanks for the hint, andy! Things seem to be a little bit wonky. The following works: var oldgeometry = workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry; workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry = {"x":oldgeometry["x"],"y":oldgeometry["y"],"width":oldgeometry["width"],"height":oldgeometry["height"]}; (i.e., modify any of these parameters, and you can get the effect you're looking for). As far as I can tell, top and bottom don't seem to be necessary/useful. However, you might think that you could do var oldgeometry = workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry; oldgeometry["width"] = 400; workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry = oldgeometry; but that does not work! You have to create a whole new geometry: var oldgeometry = workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry; var newgeometry = {"x":oldgeometry["x"],"y":oldgeometry["y"],"width":oldgeometry["width"],"height":oldgeometry["height"]}; newgeometry["width"] = 400; workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry = oldgeometry; I'm guessing the structure that actually comes out of workspace.activeWindow.frameGeometry is more complicated than a dictionary, then? I suggest that this is a documentation bug. I have not read all of the (improved, since 2023!) documentation, but I don't immediately see a statement anywhere explaining any of these quirks. Moreover, I don't see a description of how a QRect is represented in the scripting API. (This was part of my original question, and I still don't quite understand it). Of course, one could dig into the code to figure out how that mapping is done, but it would be nice if the documentation had this information. Feel free to close this bug, but I do think that the tutorial should include a subset/restatement of this bug report in it, at a minimum. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
