Hi Fernand,
I programing in Java but I already did what you described below. The pagestyles
contain the the property "HeaderHeight" but as I wrote this always returns 0
independently of how many lines I wrote in the header.
There is also the attribute "HeaderText" which gives me a XText of the Header
content but this won't help since it's only the text.
I haven't tried to iterate over the frames yet, this might work for me…
best,
Fabian
