Examples

The following example demonstrates TextFrame.getBounds in a practical document-editing workflow. It gets the frame's bounding rectangle relative to the upper left corner of the document.

function onTxError(error) {
    console.error("TX Text Control error:", error.msg);
    error.handled = true;
}

function inspectBounds(textFrame) {
    textFrame.getBounds(
        function(rect) {
            if (!rect) {
                console.warn("No rectangle was returned.");
                return;
            }
            
            console.log("get bounds result:", rect);
        },
        onTxError
    );
}
