Hi Norio,

Thanks for your reply.

I'm trying this with the below code, still struggling to get the name of the textFrame.

InterfacePtr<ITableTextContainer> tableTextContainer(tableModel, UseDefaultIID());

InterfacePtr<ITextModel> textModel(tableTextContainer->QueryTextModel());

TextIndex textframeindex;

textframeindex = tableTextContainer->GetAnchorTextIndex();

InterfacePtr<IFrameList> frameList(textModel->QueryFrameList());

InterfacePtr<ITextFrameColumn> textFrameColumn(frameList->QueryFrameContaining(textframeindex, nil/*frameIndex*/));

UIDRef txfmref(::GetUIDRef(textFrameColumn));

PMString itemName;

itemName.SetString(Utils<Facade::IPageItemNameFacade>()->GetUserAssignedPageItemName(txfmref));

CAlert::InformationAlert(itemName);

Regards,

Chinna


ITextFrameColumn isn't parent pageItem.

You need to go up IHierarchy from TextFrame to pageItem (SplineItem).

Do you mean the scriptLabel of pageItem?

1. Get ITextModel and AnchorTextIndex using ITableTextContainer.

2. Get ITextFrameColumn using ITextParcelList.

3. Get ScriptLabel of the parentItem.

Hi Norio,

Thanks for your reply.

No i'm asking for the name of the text frame (Table 2). Here the text frame name is 'Table 2' see below screenshot.

3. Get PageItemName of the parentItem using IPageItemNameFacade.
