Hello beautiful minds,
Would anyone happen to know how to make the following work in a script, if its possible:

 

Create a rectangle, based on the height(100%) of a text box, and the width(90%) of the same textbox.
Then have it go to page center.

Thanks for any help, let me know if you have any questions.

    Change the percentage (decimal) in the "ratio".

    (function (){
  if (!documents.length) return;
  if (!selection.length || selection[0].typename !== 'TextFrame') return;
  var ratio = 0.9 // Width scale
  var tf = selection[0];
  var color = new RGBColor();
  color.red = 255;
  color.green = 0;
  color.blue = 0;

  var dup = tf.duplicate().createOutline();
  var bnds = dup.geometricBounds;
  dup.remove();
  var w = Math.abs(bnds[2] - bnds[0]);
  var h = Math.abs(bnds[3] - bnds[1]);
  var top = bnds[1];
  var left = bnds[0] + w * 0.5 * (1 - ratio);

  var rect = tf.layer.pathItems.rectangle(top, left, w * ratio, h);
  rect.fillColor = color;
  rect.stroked = false;
  rect.move(tf, ElementPlacement.PLACEAFTER);
})();

    And please describe the kind of your textbox. (Because: 90% of point text does not make sense.)

    Hi. It would make more sense to the community if you could show before and after pictures.

      So I would like to be able to run a script, that automatically creates the red rectangle you see behind the text.
      Its the same height as the text, but slightly smaller width - possibly 90% ish
