I'm trying to do a script in basil.js to duplicate an image and cut/crop the image inside the frame. In the basil.js reference (http://basiljs.ch/reference/) I don't find a function to move the image inside the Indesign frame.
#includepath "~/Documents/;%USERPROFILE%Documents";
#include "basiljs/bundle/basil.js";
function draw() {
for(var n=0; n<800; n+=100){
for (var c=0; c<800; c+=100){
var img = b.image('image-example.jpg', n, c, 100, 100);
}
}
}
b.go();
Anyone have an idea how do this with basil.js or java code ? Thanks
try something like this for placing an image and moving its inner position within a rect:
#includepath "~/Documents/;%USERPROFILE%Documents";
#include "basiljs/bundle/basil.js";
function draw() {
var frame = b.rect(0,0,300,100);
var imgFile = new File("/Users/bene/Desktop/image.jpg");
frame.place(imgFile);
// optional FitOptions e.g.
frame.fit( FitOptions.FILL_PROPORTIONALLY );
frame.fit( FitOptions.CENTER_CONTENT );
// print current inner position
b.println( frame.allGraphics[0].geometricBounds );
// change inner pos
var x = 100;
var y = 50;
var bounds = frame.allGraphics[0].geometricBounds;
frame.allGraphics[0].geometricBounds = [y, x, bounds[2], bounds[3]];
// print new inner pos
b.println( frame.allGraphics[0].geometricBounds );
}
b.go();
