My development looks like rush hour! Allways stop and go.
What i want is 2 layers controlled by the scripting. At the 1st layer there is the regular document and at the 2nd layer is the matching source configuration for all the variable data.
By script control there should be switched the display and give the possibility to edit the config layer.
The idea is to have the equal construct at both layers.
If i create a TextFrame with the GeometricBounds that is ok. If i add now a Table to that TextFrame the position of that table moves around the TextFrame of the 1st layer even if this layer is not visible.
Why that and how can i change it?
And once more, how to make the other Layer active by script?
