This script puts a Bridge window in "auto-preview" mode. The script will automatically select the latest file in the folder based on the file-modification date. If the preview panel is showing, this file will be previewed. If files are modified or new files are added, selection changes to select the new, latest file. * Starting Auto Preview 1. Use a workspace that shows the preview panel and the content panel. You size them however you wish--you can also put the preview panel in a second, synchronized window if you want it. 2. From the Refine toolbar menu (the icon that looks like a stack of three pages), choose "Auto Preview Latest File" Bridge will select the latest file in the folder. As you add files to the folder, the file with the latest modification date should be previewed automatically. * Stopping Auto Preview Click the "Stop Auto Preview" button in the content pane's top Nav Bar -- or just close the Bridge window. Auto-Preview will also stop if you close the window, or navigate to a new location.

This worked fine for me.
Using Windows 7, 64 bit.
I would have liked to be able to see the image live on my PC screen before taking the picture (rather than seeing the results after)
But this is fine!

What is the purpose of this thing. It simply does not work. :/

To bad this doesn't work. It would be very useful.
Snow Leopard, CS4, everything up-to-date.

It worked as advertised for me on a Vista 64 bit Dell workstation.
