The preference properties listed here are the static properties. Additional dynamic properties reflect the prefereences that can be viewed in and controlled by Preferences dialog. Some existing preferences can be set or read by setting or retrieving the associated property value. Not all existing preferences are available in the scripting environment. Those that are available are listed in the Adobe Bridge JavaScript Reference. Preference values do not take effect until Adobe Bridge application is restarted. You can set certain preference values for the current session only. That is, the changes take effect immediately, but do not persist across sessions. The next time the Adobe Bridge application is restarted, the global preference value is used. A script can create a new preference by simply referencing a new property name in this object. New preferences must be of the type String, Number, or Boolean. Composite types (such as Rect and Point) are retrieved as String objects. Access the Preferences object through the app.preferences property.
