the example I have attached
gives me 2 different outcomes... Left gives me 3 picture boxes, right gives
me 1 picture box, which doesn't make sense...


Let me know what you think

Hi Jan,

the document contains 6 nested group boxes.
Just 'ungroup' the boxes and you can see the difference of the left an right group box.


There is something very strange in the document.
The document contains 2 picture boxes with the 'uniqueID' 23!

The script below will give you an idea of how to walk thru nested groups.

Peter



set resultList to {}
tell application "QuarkXPress"
tell document 1
set group_List to every group box
repeat with aGroup in group_List
tell aGroup
set genericBox_List to every generic box
set groupContent_List to {}
repeat with aGenericBox in genericBox_List
set end of groupContent_List to {uniqueID of aGenericBox, box type of aGenericBox}
end repeat
set end of resultList to {uniqueID, groupContent_List}
end tell
end repeat
end tell
end tell
return resultList
