Re: Associating a condition with a paragraph/char format

Hi Rick, Adding a case for FA_Note_PreFunction yields the same error message. I am probably missing something. Please, advise. I remember it worked for you in FM11 but not in FM10. Thank you! Roman

Re: Associating a condition with a paragraph/char format

You are no longer going to test for the function number because it does not work with FM 10. Instead, you are going to test for the paragraph format of the paragraph containing the cursor, and you are...

Re: How to get the flags for GetText()?

I just use a pipe symbol to OR in the constants I need. For example, this one gets paragraph begins and table anchors in a single text list: var textList =...

Re: How to get the flags for GetText()?

Thanks for that simple answer Rick, I appreciate it. I knew it was simpler than the docs presented it. Assuming that ExtendScript technical writers monitor this forum (and for anyone else with a...

Re: Is Find() dependable or should I use something else?

I don't like to use Find in FrameScript for this type of thing, so I wouldn't recommend it with ExtendScript either. I prefer to inerate through paragraphs, then check each paragraph for...
