Hello JAMF-y boys and girls!
My management has tasked me with trying to figure out a way to set hot corners for some of our student labs to defined variables. At current, we have desktop picture and screensaver system preferences disabled through config profile for student access but some of the lab teachers want to have certain things available to students. The idea would be to set the Hot Corners while keeping the screensaver and desktop settings blocked from the System preferences pane.
For instance, we if are trying to keep "Notes" In the bottom right corner, put "Application Windows" in the top right, "Mission control" in the bottom left and "Launchpad" in the top left, and then force these settings to set of computers, what is the best way to accomplish this?
I know this information lives in the com.apple.dock plist, but my attempts to "defaults write" to this file via script doesn't seem to produce any changes.
It seems like the script would be something along the lines of this, but I don't know what variable you would use to st the hot corners selections
sudo defaults write /Users/$USER/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock wvous-tl-corner
Any help or info would be super appreciated!
