overflowing texframe in indesign cs6

[mrfsrf5]

Hi all,

having a small problem with the script that creates texframe and places all the link name in that textframe

var myDocument = app.activeDocument; var myText = myDocument.textFrames.add(); var links = myDocument.links;   for( var i=0; i<=links.length-1; i++ ){             myText.contents = links.name +"\r"; }   app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().textFrames.everyItem().fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);

also tried this

myText.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);

Hi,

at least you've got to specify the width of the textframe, so that it can be handled:

for example:

var myDocument = app.activeDocument; 
var myTextframe = myDocument.textFrames.add({geometricBounds:[0,0,100,100]}); 
var linkNames = (myDocument.links.everyItem().name).join(', ');   
myTextframe.contents = linkNames;
myTextframe.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT)
