I was trying to mimic the interface behaviour of  autosize panel in indesign for a custom plugin using IReferencePointData.

What i tried to mimic in here was if user select height only option 

  1. enable the middle vertical line
  2. disable the rest of reference points in the grid panel 

like in indesign picture below

ex:

 

I tried IReferencePointData::ReferenceAppearance to create a line but didnt worked. 

Could someone please assist me with this issue? Thank you.

Have you created your own UI  ?

 

If you have created your own UI then how you using IReferencePointData ?

 

In InDesign, Text Frame AutoSize UI is kClusterButtonFocusPanelBoss. - Are you using this ?
