I had another go with my grouping strategy and came up with a solution that works. I have uploaded a new modified version of my script here: <http://home.exetel.com.au/thunder/img/simpleScript2.js> Basically I create a bunch of empty text frames and group them to all of the individual page items, this creates a new set of page items who are all of the same type 'Group' and therefore share unique indicies which represent their stacking order. This script could surely by improved and optimized. This method seems entirely over the top for something that should be very simple. I am open to better suggestions.
