I'm working with this ScriptMaker call and getting 'odd' results when I try to get the coordinates of an object in a layout.

Whereas the Object Info palette says one thing for left-top-right- bottom of the object, the GetLayoutObjectAttribute calls say something markedly different for the very same object, as the object is 'highlighted' by a dark outline while being addressed by the script.

Is this a bug? Or an undocumented 'feature'?

What it is is just totally fouled-up, as far as I can see.

The offset of what GetLayoutObjectAttribute gives different from the Object Info palette OR the DDR report is +32 pixels vertically. It is, now get this....+50 pixels horizontally if the Status Area is hidden and +119 if it is visible.

WHO on God's Green Earth DID THIS? And is there a method to this madness?
