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?
