A report that *no* r/o properties are accessible in C6 appears to have been
premature. Some definitely are accessible, even though a get properties
doesn't list them, as I found in some quick testing this morning.
R/O properties not accessible directly for Graphic Elements:
-- color space
-- used fonts
-- spot colors
-- resolution
R/O properties not appearing in "get properties" for a graphic element:
-- object reference
-- owner page
-- page name
-- page number
-- file creator
-- file type
-- color space
-- used fonts
-- spot colors
-- resolution
-- color depth
-- embedded profile name
-- has embedded profile
I must say I wish I had not paid for an upgrade to all our copies of C2 at
this point. I haven't started testing other parts of my scripted workflow
yet, but if the above is indicative of the flaws in the Applescript
implementation in Creator 6 is is essentially useless to me right now.
I hope MultiAd will bring some serious resources to bear and correct the AS
dictionary implementation quickly in a 6.0.2 release.
