I'm having trouble working out if boxes are overflowing in Xpress 4.11 on
9.2.2. I've written a script that puts a few text boxes on a page and fills
them with text. I now want to adjust the tracking in any boxed that
overflow. However, I keep getting errors.
This Script:
tell application "QuarkXPress 4.11"
tell document 1
set m to object reference of every text box
set obrefs to {}
repeat with j in m
if (box overflows of j) then set end of obrefs to item i of m
end repeat
end tell
end tell
Sets m to {generic box 2 of spread 1 of document "ORD001504", generic box 4
of spread 1 of document "ORD001504", generic box 5 of spread 1 of document
"ORD001504"}
And then fails on the first pass at "box overflows" with the error 'Can't
make some data into the expected type.'
Also,
set m to object reference of every text box whose box overflows is true
Doesn't work.
Can someone tell me what I'm missing?
Thanks,
Steve
