Xml work flow - fit to text frame width for images

[karthikS]

Dear java script kings,

I was checking the scripting for based on the xml work flow. Here with i faced the problem, images not fixed in the text frame width (attached screenshot for your reference).

@ I needed: All images automatically fit to text frame width and resizing images also.

Text frame width: 325.984 pt

Text frame hight: 535.748 pt

This passable to script?.

Advance Thanks

HTH,

function main(){
  var doc = app.properties.activeDocument,
  rects, rect, n =0, columnWidth, ratio, rectBounds;

  if(!doc) return;

  rects = doc.stories.everyItem().rectangles.everyItem().getElements();

  n = rects.length;

  while ( n-- ) {
  rect = rects;
  if ( rect.parent.parentTextFrames.length ) {
  columnWidth = rect.parent.parentTextFrames[0].textFramePreferences.textColumnFixedWidth;
  rectBounds = rect.visibleBounds;
  ratio = columnWidth/(Math.abs(rectBounds[3]-rectBounds[1]));
  rect.resize ( CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES, AnchorPoint.TOP_LEFT_ANCHOR, ResizeMethods.MULTIPLYING_CURRENT_DIMENSIONS_BY, [ratio,ratio] );
  }
  }
}


app.doScript( "main();", u,u, UndoModes.ENTIRE_SCRIPT, "Fit images to column" );

HI Loic.Aigon‌

First, sorry for the late replay.

I have run your above coding. That coding showed some error comment "u is undefined" (attached screen shot for your reference). I don't now how to clear this type problem friends.

One question: what is meaning for "u".

Advance Thanks,

[Loic.Aigon]

My bad. You need to add this line prior to call doScript:

var u;

app.doScript…

u stands for undefined as it is actually…undefined.

HI Loic.Aigon,

Thank you so match friend.  Your script working good.

One quick question: It is possible to reduced the image size in the java script? based no the text width frame. Please advice friend.

Advance Thanks

[Loic.Aigon]

It's sure possible. Images are children of the rectangle object and have geometric properties you can take advantage of:

rect.graphics[0].geometricBounds = …

or rect.graphics[0].absoluteHorizontalScale = …

or rect.graphics[0].resize (…

or rect.graphics[0].transform (…

etc.
