Hi again,

I've wrote this script (no test, be carrefull):





 
tell application "InDesign 2.0.2" 
	set mydoc to active document 
	tell mydoc 
		set mySelection to selection 
		set properties of row 1 of item 1 of selection to � 
			{vertical justification:bottom � 
				, fill color:swatch "Paper" of mydoc � 
				, height:"6.5", bottom inset:"1"} 
		set properties of row 2 of item 1 of selection to {fill color:tint id 155 of mydoc} 
	end tell 
end tell 



1) When I try to apply the "Paper" swatch, the tint doensn't matter: paper is paper ;-)
2) When I try to apply an other swatch AND a tint, the tint syntax doesnt' works so,
3) the only way to do this is to use the {fill color:tint id 155 of mydoc}

I try so many differents way... and I just find this:



 
tell application "InDesign 2.0.2" 
	activate 
	set mydoc to active document 
	tell mydoc 
		set myBlack to item 1 of swatch "Black"

		set properties of row 2 of item 1 of selection to {fill color:myBlack} 
		set properties of row 2 of item 1 of selection to {fill tint:10} 
	end tell 
end tell 



Be carrefull: I created some tint of "Black": 10, 20 and 30%.
When I use


 
	set myBlack to swatch "Black" 



I've something like this: {color id 8 of document "doc_table", tint id 154 of document "doc_table", tint id 155 of document "doc_table", tint id 223 of document "doc_table"}


I try this:


 
	set myBlack to item 1 of swatch "Black" 



and that's works... only if the swatch "Black" is the first in the swatches palette. How can I find the "Black" color and not the "Black" tints ??? With a "whose" like: set myBlack to item 1 of swatch "Black" whose is not tint.

Any idea ?


TIA

Oli.
