Hi,
I am trying to set a rectangle frame, which has been selected, to have a stroke. I have an example of creating a new rectangle with stroke etc but I can't seem to get the stroke to alter a selected rectangle. Is this possible??
This is am example of the script I am currently writing:
tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
   activate
   set myDoc to active document
   tell myDoc
	set mySel to selection
	tell mySel
	 set stroke weight to {0.5}
	 set stroke color to {swatch "Black" of myDoc}
	 set stroke type to {solid}
        end tell
   end tell
end tell
I hope this all makes sense, thanks for any help,
Liz
