Xpress 4.11 Scripting Question


  • Subject: Xpress 4.11 Scripting Question
  • From: Steve Thompson <email@hidden>
  • Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 12:20:17 +0000

Could someone tell me (or point to me to the answer for) how to do in script
something in Xpress that I can do easily with a mouse.

When my script runs it creates two pages. Page one appears to the right of
the center line in the document layout and then page two appears below and
to the left - standard behavior.

Occasionally (but not always), I need these to pages to be a spread. I just
drag page 2 next to page one and I have a spread - this happens when the
page contents share a common headline. That's the action I would like to
script but I can't find the terminology. Putting Page 2 after page 1 doesn't
do anything (I assume because it already is after page 1).

If Page1Headline = Page2Headline then
tell application "Quark Xpress"

-- rearrange pages

end tell
End if


Any pointers gratefully received.

Steve
