Adobe InDesign applied object style

I am working on my first AppleScript for Adobe InDesign.
(Third and final, questions)

I have been able to place text and picture boxes on a page using the
following:

[begin excerpt]
tell application "InDesign CS"
    activate
    tell document 1
        tell page page_var
            set myPictureBox to make rectangle with properties {geometric
bounds:{9.625, 0.5, 10.5, 5.917}, stroke weight:0, label:"information"}
        end tell
    end tell
end tell
[end excerpt]

The document is set up with 2 page spreads with, for example, pages 2 and 3
being on the same spread. Whether page_var is 2 or 3 the box/frame is placed
on the same page (page 2) perhaps because the measurement are calculated on
a spread basis.

Is there a way to have the box/frame put on the correct page in the correct
location without having to resort to using a mod of (page_var) to determine
how much to add the to "from left" setting?

I hope that this is clear enough. Thanks in advance for any thoughts on
this.

All the best,


Tony White
