Question

Animation Name and Preset

I'm using InDesign CC 2015. I need a JavaScript for ExtendScript that can access the Amination object and return the name, preset, and events. Can someone give me an example of how this can be done?

Many Thanks!

Hi

Unless I am wrong there is no "animation" objects as such. However you can find animationSettings property attached to pageItems which you can get whatever information you need.

If you go to the Menu items and follow this path:

Window>>Interactive>>Animation

Click on the Animation item and an Animation panel will open up. I'm trying to  get the properties set in this panel using ExtendScript.

Thx

If I follow your link, there is an "AnimationSettings". This has the presets I'm looking to use, but can't get them to work in my code. So I'm thinking my syntax is wrong.
