InDesign cs5, stroke effects js

[Yuliaart]

Hi,

I need to change stroke's effect to Difference' and I could not find anything for effects in the OMV under StrokeStyle or anything under Stroke. How do I assign it, or am I'm looking in the wrong place at all.

Thank you for your help.

Yulia,

maybe you have more luck looking here:

use it like that:

yourObject.strokeTransparencySettings.blendingSettings.blendMode = BlendMode.DIFFERENCE;

Hi,

Well, unfortunately, you are looking at wrong place.

StrokeStyle is managing Dashed/Dotted/Striped strokes, and not for managing stroke effects.

You want to change stroke transparency settings, so the code would look like this:

app.selection[0].strokeTransparencySettings.blendingSettings.blendMode = BlendMode.DIFFERENCE;

Hope that helps.
