fabian, Your headers have a "dynamic" height ?
Maybe you can move the viewcursor init and calculate the height from its position on start en end of the header ?
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 On May 21, 2012, at 4:08 PM, Fernand Vanrie wrote:fabian , You can find it in the "page styles" Find my code belmow to handle some "text" i placed in a textframe (named "MyFooterFrame" )in the footer, you can do the same with the Header. Do a xray on the pagestyles to have additional information about the Header. Hop it helps Fernand Sub FooterText ' On Local Error GoTo GeenFooterFrame If (Not GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.isLibraryLoaded("Tools")) Then GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.LoadLibrary("Tools") End If oDocument = thisComponent oStyles = oDocument.getStyleFamilies.getByName("PageStyles") oFrames = oDocument.getTextFrames xray ostyles.getbyindex(0) oFooterframe = Oframes.getByName("MyFooterFrame") oFooterText = oFooterFrame.Text oFootertext.setstring("") oFooterCursor = oFooterText.createTextCursor() oFooterText.insertString(oFooterCursor, FileNameoutofPath(oDocument.Url , "/") , true) exit sub GeenFooterFrame: beep msgbox( "Er is geen ""FooterFrame"" meer, copieer het frame uit een ander document en ga verder" ,48) exit sub End SubHi, I want to find out the height of a document's header. Reading out the attribute HeaderHeight of the page properties only returns 0 and getting the XText of the header also didn't get me nowhere so far. My goal is to insert a graphic at a user specified position of the page and for different reasons I can't simply use page as anchor. Therefore I need to know the height and width of the page margins and the page header to position the image independently of those dimensions. Has anybody a hint how to get the header's height. best Fabian.
