CS6 master page problems with CS5.5 script
hi.
i've extensive script created cs5.5, creates 16 documents, styles them, , adds them book file.
under cs6, still works fine, creates necessary stylesheets , master pages, master page items shifted.
i've checked position page tool, , clicked show master page overlay, , centre of master pages sitting @ centre of spread (which 0 point of ruler).
i've tried versioning cs5.5, can't stick (compiling changes cs6 cs5").
can tell me how correct problem? ideally, i'd append part of script creates master page. starts thus:
set currentmaster to master spread "a-master" of pub00
set base name of currentmaster to "standard pages"
tell currentmaster
make guide with properties {orientation:vertical, location:"138mm"}
make guide with properties {orientation:vertical, location:"140mm"}
tell margin preferences of pages
set top to topmargin
set left to insidemargin
set bottom to bottommargin
set right to outsidemargin
set column count to doccolumns
set column gutter to colgutter
end tell
... , start creating para , character styles, , add various frames content masters.
another section create master starts ...
tell currentmaster
tell page 1
... should use 'tell page 1' block alter master overlay, or somewhere else?
each document has 3 different master pages, have open 16, , use page tool shift master overaly, can pretty time consuming.
any pointers appreciated.
i'm seeing well, when go override master page items normal page. code worked fine on cs5, broke when updated cs6.
on override_master_page_items(p)
-- overrides possible master page items given page.
tell application "adobe indesign cs6"
try
-- list of items override
set master page items of p
set b {}
repeat v in i
-- build list of items override can process at once (for speed)
try
if allow overrides of v true then
-- override item if in fact possible so.
set b {b, v}
end if
end try
end repeat
-- override items found above.
set overriddenitems override b destination page p
end try
end tell
end override_master_page_items
any or ideas appreciated.
