I would like to automate opening two finder windows in split-screen View (the full screen split view you get by hovering over the green full-screen button and selecting Tile Window, not the windows style maximize) If possible preferably via AppleScript but would be okay with Automator or shortcuts. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Running an M1 Air on Monteray. my current workaround is this AppleScript, however, I would like to be using split-screen so it’s in its on mission control workspace. Ive tried some Keyboard Maestro “solutions” from similar posts but they just do the same thing as my AppleScript. If its not possible is there a way to make my AppleScript open the two finder windows on a new mission control workspace? PS New to mac and Applescript.
tell application "System Events" to set the autohide of the dock preferences to true
tell application "Finder"
close windows
open ("/Users/arthur/" as POSIX file)
set screenBounds to bounds of window of desktop
set screenWidth to item 3 of screenBounds
set screenHeight to item 4 of screenBounds
set the position of the front Finder window to {0, 0}
set the bounds of the front Finder window to {0, 0, screenWidth * 0.5, screenHeight * 1}
make Finder window
set the position of the front Finder window to {screenWidth * 0.5, 0}
set the bounds of the front Finder window to {screenWidth * 0.5, 0, screenWidth, screenHeight * 1}
set the target of Finder window 1 to ("/Users/arthur/Downloads" as POSIX file)
activate
end tell
