[Solved] Finding Frames and there Properties

[wmorrison1967]

Hello,
I need a little help. I would like to find all the frames in a document and retrieve their properties. The properties I would like to get is the size so that I can insert on image to match the frame. I am know how to find a frame if I know the name. But the document that I will be processing will have frames but I will not know the names. The using VB to do the work.

Regards,
Will

Here are three ways to iterate over the frames in a document

Code: Select all

oFrames = ThisComponent.TextFrames
'By Index
Cnt =oFrames.Count
For i = 0 to Cnt - 1
	Frm = oFrames.getByIndex(i)
	print Frm.Name, Frm.Size.Height, Frm.Size.Width
next i
'By Name
aNames = oFrames.ElementNames
For i = 0 to UBound(aNames)
	Frm = oFrames.getByName(aNames(i))
	print Frm.Name, Frm.Size.Height, Frm.Size.Width
next i
'Enumeration
oEnum = oFrames.createEnumeration()
While oEnum.hasMoreElements
	Frm = oEnum.nextElement()
	print Frm.Name, Frm.Size.Height, Frm.Size.Width
WEnd
