This script is intended for use with StuffIt InstallerMaker archives as an aid in setting the icon positions of items to be installed into a User Specified Folder destination, after the items have been stuffed into an archive.
Icon positions for archive items are recorded by InstallerMaker when they are stuffed into an archive, but these positions may need adjustment, especially if the Finder had not "flushed" up-to-date settings to disk when the items were stuffed. Inappropriate icon positions may have been recorded. This script lets you adjust the icon positions easily.
How to use:
a. In the Finder, create a folder and arrange files and/or folders inside it so the positions of the items are set as you would like matching archive items to have their icon positions set.
b. Select the items in your archive (so they are highlighted in the archive window) for which you wish to adjust icon positions .
c. Run this script.
d. A prompt will ask you to select the folder you created in the Finder in step "a". Only items at the root level of that folder matching the names of the items you selected in your archive will be used to set new icon positions for the items in the archive. File Types are not distinguished from one another in matching archive items with items in the folder from the Finder, but folder items are distinguished from file items.
When the script is finished, the matching items in your archive should now have their icon positions set to match the items in the folder.
