As I read it, the help you cite refers to selecting multiple graphical objects within a single anchored frame. It works. However, if you are trying to select multiple graphical (anchored) frames within a text flow, flow, I don't think you can do that. Note that (in contrast to other Adobe apps such as Illustrator), to select multiple graphical objects within the same frame, your lasso must enclose all of all the objects to be selected, not just a part of each. Lasooing graphical objects from outside the frame in which they reside doesn't work. Because of the property in para 1 above, trying to select the contents of multiple graphical frames doesn't work either. Sorry - most frustrating if you have a lot to implement :-( If they are repeating and identical graphical objects that need to be manipulated en masse, maybe including them as an insert from another file might work for you? Also, in theory (although I've never been able to make it work), you should be able to reference named graphical objects on a reference page. If all that fails, SiliconPrairie's AutoText plug-in can insert named graphical objects from a control file with a menu click. I don't understand your reference to multiple copy/paste operations. -- Steve [Trim e-mails: use less disk, use less power, use less planet] _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as [email protected].
