Also note that the syntax...
select insertion point before paragraph 2
also works, if you prefer.

This don't run with Pages 2 or 3.
tell application "Pages"
make new document with properties {body text:"first second third
fourth"}
tell document 1
make new text at after character 2 of word 2 with data "$"
select insertion point before word 3
make new text with data "before "
end tell
end tell
Gives : (in Page 3. In Page 2, there are error...)
"first se$cond third fourthbefore "
and not
"first se$cond before third fourth"
Why?
How must I use "insertion point" with "Pages" ? Thanks.
(if you don't have Pages 3, you can download a trial version from
Apple website).
You made an error when writing what would be the correct result.
At each test, the insertion point is set just before the added $
which is treated as a word delimiter.
You may check with this code:
tell application "Pages"
make new document with properties {body text:"first second third
fourth"}
tell document 1
make new text at after character 2 of word 2 with data "$"
--select insertion point before word 3
make new text at before word 3 with data "before "
end tell
end tell
