This construction do not work, because myDoc.selection don't accepted as valid argument. Try:
var mySelection = new Array();
// Convert selection to array of objects before grouping
for (myCounter=0; myCounter<selection.length; myCounter++){
mySelection[myCounter] = selection[myCounter]
}
var myGroup = myDoc.pages[0].groups.add(mySelection);
And one more question special for Olav :)
I can't move object by
//example from scripting guide
with(app){
mySelection = selection[0];
mySelection.move(["2p", "6p"]);
}
Result is:
JavaScrip error!
Error number: 19
Error string: "Bad argument move"
Line: 3
Source: mySelection.move(["2p", "6p"]);
How i can REAL move object?
