Safari Make New Window with Bounds ... is messed up

Scripting Forums AppleScript | Mac OS X

Hi folks.

I use Launchbar. Love the thing. I want quick go-to AS calls to make Safari windows in left monitor, centre monitor, right monitor. Each is a separate script. Here are two for centre and left:

-- script to put a left Safari window

tell application "Safari"
	-- set w to front window
	-- get properties of w
	make new document with properties {bounds:{-1444, -263, -4, 1279}}
end tell


-- script to put a centre Safari window

tell application "Safari"
	-- set w to front window
	-- get properties of w
	make new document with properties {bounds:{1044, 23, 2192, 1438}}
end tell

I’m using El Capitan with 4 monitors on my Mac Pro. Windows are opening up in the same display as the frontmost window.

Anybody know why this is happening? Any advice appreciated.

Cheers

Model: Mac Pro
AppleScript: 2.5
Browser: Safari 534.57.2
Operating System: Mac OS X (10.10)

Hi.

‘bounds’ is a window property, not a document one.

-- script to put a centre Safari window

tell application "Safari"
	make new document
	set bounds of window 1 to {1044, 23, 2192, 1438}
end tell

Excellent. Thank you.
