How to get another application window's title, position and size in Mac OS without Accessibility API?

Question

How can I get window\'s title, position and size if it does not support Accessibility API? Accessibility Inspector does not see it at all. Say, it\'s a xterm window in X11.a

Answer 1

You can use CGWindowListCreateDescriptionFromArray(). See CGWindow.h

This gives you an array of dictionaries. The following information will probably be useful to you:

• position and size: kCGWindowBounds
• name: kCGWindowName
