Find area text with clipped copy?

[jsavage77]

In ExtendScript, is there a way I can determine if a piece of area text is too small to display all of the text contents? In otherwords, if the copy overflows the shape and is clipped off...

Here's a function I use. Shamelessly stolen from @Silly-V 

function isOverset(frame)
{
	if (frame.kind == TextType.POINTTEXT)
	{
		return false;
	}
	if (frame.lines.length == 1 && frame.paragraphs.length == 1)
	{
		// single line
		if (frame.lines[0].characters.length < frame.characters.length)
		{
			return true;
		}
		else
		{
			return false;
		}
	}
	else
	{
		// multiline

		var lineLength = frame.lines.length;
		var allContentArr = frame.contents.split(/[\x03\r\n]/g);
		var allContentReturnsLength = allContentArr.length;
		var lastLineContent = frame.lines[lineLength - 1].contents;
		var lastAllContentContent = allContentArr[allContentReturnsLength - 1];
		return !(allContentReturnsLength == lineLength && (lastLineContent == lastAllContentContent));
	}
	return false;
};

Bonjour à tous,

Peut-être que je n'ai pas bien compris la demande de jsavage77,

mais voici ma version:

function isOverset1(frame) {
  with (frame) {
    var nbcarLine =  paragraphs.length-1;
      for (var i = 0; i < lines.length; i++) {
       nbcarLine += lines[i].characters.length;
      }
     return nbcarLine != characters.length ? true : false;
  }
}
