Re: Automate Outline Object
In this project I am opening an XML file using an application with XSLT and r/w rules. Is it possible to specify a border around a graphic object in the EDD, or would this be a read/write rule? Or is it just not possible? I've been snooping around the Structured Dev Guide but haven't found anything yet. Thanks, Don.

Don, Neither a EDD nor r/w rules can set this property. A simple FDK client could do so as part of the process of opening the XML document, or FrameScript could after the document is opened. --Lynne Lynne A. Price Text Structure Consulting, Inc.

Automate Outline Object
All, Is there a way to automate putting an outline on a graphic object. (Other than using FrameScript which I don't have.) I can do this manually by selecting the object then the Tools Palette but I've got about 1200 graphic objects to modify. If not, I'll look at modifying the actual graphic to put a border on them.

Re: Automate Outline Object
Hi Don, FrameScript would certainly pay for itself with this job alone. If you decide to try it, here is the code to add a 1 point border to all of the imported graphics on body pages in the document. If ActiveDoc = 0 MsgBox 'There is no active document.'; LeaveSub; Else Run ProcessDoc oDoc(ActiveDoc); EndIf Sub ProcessDoc // Set oGraphic = oDoc.FirstGraphicInDoc; Loop While(oGraphic) // See if the graphic is an imported graphic. If oGraphic.ObjectName = 'Inset' // See if the graphic is on a body page. If oGraphic.Page.ObjectName = 'BodyPage' Set oGraphic.Pen = FillBlack; Set oGraphic.BorderWidth = 1pt; EndIf EndIf Set oGraphic = oGraphic.NextGraphicInDoc; EndLoop // EndSub Without FrameScript, you could save your documents as MIF and use a text editor to add the border.
