Chris--

I understand your frustration, but I'm a bit baffled by the situation that's provoking it. I don't understand why setting the stroke weight and color for a rectangle isn't working inside a "with properties" construction. It works for me--which means that we should run though what's different between our two systems to try to figure out the root cause.

Let's start with the basics--what system version, script editor, and AppleScript version are you using?

Could you try writing a minimal script that creates a document, then creates a rectangle on page 1 using "with properties" to set the stroke weight and color? Something like:



tell application "InDesign 2.0.2" 
set myDocument to make document 
tell page 1 of myDocument 
set myRectangle to make rectangle with properties{stroke color:color "Black" of myDocument, stroke weight:1} 
end tell 
end tell 




Does that work?

Thanks,

Ole
