I want to add a "HyperlinkTextDestination" to every graphic. So I have to get their insertionPoints. But I didn't get them!? :-/

This is a part of my first attempt (which doesn't work):

var myIPindex = myGraphics[myCounter].index;
 var myIPstory = myGraphics[myCounter].parent.parent;
 var myIP = myIPstory.insertionPoints[myIPindex];

Got anyone got a hint?

myChar = myGraphics[myCounter].parent;

Are you sure you need the insertionPoint for this? If so, add this:

myIP= myChar.insertionPoints[0];

For adding a HyperlinkTextDestination you need a text or insertion point location. (Or is there another way to link the graphics directly?)

Your way throw's the error of an "unknown method" ...

var myChar = myGraphics[myCounter].parent.;
 var myIP = myChar.insertionPoints[0];

???

You've not shown enough of your script. What is myGraphics referring to? How did you construct it?

Did you see the edit to my previous message?

Sorry, ...
I loop through all graphics of the document. (And they are all within a textframe including the caption)

myGraphics = app.activeDocument.allGraphics;

In that case, you need (as I said in the edit) the parent of the parent of the graphic to get to the character that holds the inline/anchored graphic. But that assumes that indeed all the graphics are inline/anchored.
