Weird! Why is the content adaptation framework code ineffective for it?

Please use the direct selection tool to select the innermost image.

The code is invalid for the blue image in the middle. Effective on the right side.

The reason for this may be that I held down "Ctrl+Shift+left mouse button" and dragged the innermost "image".

var d = app.activeDocument;
var item = d.selection[0];

//alert(item.constructor.name);
//alert(item.parent.parent.constructor.name);

// direct selection tool
if (item.constructor.name == "Image") {
    //alert('000')
    contentFitToFrame(item.parent.parent)
}

function contentFitToFrame(s) {
    //alert('001')
    s.frameFittingOptions.fittingAlignment = AnchorPoint.TOP_LEFT_ANCHOR;
    s.fit(FitOptions.FILL_PROPORTIONALLY);
}

This is another example of the problems you will run into with nested frames. Each frame has its own frameFittingOptions and fit methods, but you are only setting one of the two. You’ll get a different result If you set the parent and parent.parent, which in this case are rectangles:

var d = app.activeDocument;
var item = d.selection[0];

if (item.constructor.name == "Image") {
    contentFitToFrame(item.parent)
    contentFitToFrame(item.parent.parent)
}

function contentFitToFrame(s) {
    s.frameFittingOptions.fittingAlignment = AnchorPoint.TOP_LEFT_ANCHOR;
    s.fit(FitOptions.FILL_PROPORTIONALLY);
}

Hi @rob day

The problem doesn't lie here. Pay attention to the blue one, its function should be:
contentFitToFrame(item.parent.parent)。
But I don't know why it's contentFitToFrame (item. parent)

The outermost frame of the original image is' item. parent '.
Once pasted into the frame, its outermost frame is item.parent.parent

Pay attention to the blue one

My example is using the blue version in your 1028.indd file

when you are pasting you are pasting the image with it parent rectangle. So for the centre image

item.parent.parent is rectangle

However for the left most image item.parent is rectangle and item.parent.parent is spread
