table position

Hi together,

yes—using anchored frames is possible.

Here some code:

// Text frame selected:
var textFrame = app.selection[0];
// Let's build a text frame with a table somewhere on the spread:
var frameWithTable = app.documents[0].layoutWindows[0].activeSpread.textFrames.add
(
    {
        geometricBounds : [0,0,100,16],
        strokeWidth : 0,
        strokeColor : "None",
        fillColor : "None"
    }
);
// Adding a table:
frameWithTable.insertionPoints[0].tables.add
(
    {
        bodyRowCount : 2,
        columnCount : 1,
        width : 16,
        contents : ["Cell 1", "Cell 2"]
    }
);
// Let's fit the frame to the table:
frameWithTable.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
// Duplicate and anchor the duplicates to the selected text frame:
for(var n=0;n<5;n++)
{
    var dup = frameWithTable.duplicate();
    dup.anchoredObjectSettings.insertAnchoredObject
    (
        textFrame.parentStory.insertionPoints[-1] ,
        AnchorPosition.INLINE_POSITION
    );
   
    // Maybe we need a separator character between the frames?
    textFrame.parentStory.insertionPoints[-1].contents = " ";
}
// Remove the frame we built on the spread:
frameWithTable.remove();

Have fun!

Cheers,

Uwe
