I would like to be able to add shapes (for example a circle) on a new layer that I create beforehand.
My request is similar to this question:
Draw circle on a new layer in Photoshop using cep/Javascript but for InDesign.
I tried the code but it doesn't work, I think PathPointInfo (and probably some other stuff) is not in the API of InDesign.
I did a lot of research but couldn't find what I needed
Thank you in advance for your help !
var cr = app.activeDocument.pages[0].ovals.add(); //add a circle in active documents first page
cr.geometricBounds = [10,10,100,100]; //apply geometry to the circle
cr.strokeWeight = 0.1; //adding stroke weight
cr.strokeColor = app.activeDocument.swatches[3]; //choose color from active document's swatch
I found a solution using the polygons :
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var page = doc.pages.item(0);
var pl = page.polygons.add();
