Replacing Image in a Graphic Frame

Aug 10, 2012 7:53 AM

Hi,

 

I have a tagged graphic frame and am trying to replace the image without loosing the link to the tag.....


I have tried using the Hierachy to remove the image which works - But I loose the link to the tag:

 

InterfacePtr<IGraphicFrameData> graphicFrame(ref, UseDefaultIID());

InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> graphicFrameHierarchy(graphicFrame, UseDefaultIID());

InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> childHierarchy(graphicFrameHierarchy->QueryChild(0));

graphicFrameHierarchy->Remove(childHierarchy);

 

 

I have managed to do something in Extended Script which has worked using links.

 

var vLinks = myDoc.links;

var link = vLinks.itemByName("Hydrangeas.jpg");

link.relink(new File("C:/Users/Public/Pictures/Sample Pictures/Koala.jpg"));

 

Any Ideas?

 

Thanks


Nathan Deamer

 

 

*I have also tried retagging the image after deleting and replacing the graphic.  But due to how it is set up I can't tag the frame when it is in a group inside a text frame.....

    Look at  Utils<Facade::ILinkFacade>()->RelinkLink()

    Thank you

     

    Here is parts of the code I used which will hopefully help anyone else:

     

    UIDRef ref; //Set this

    IDFile file;  //Set this

     

    URI uri;

    Utils<IURIUtils>()->IDFileToURI(file, uri);

     

    //Use the ILinkFacade to relink to the uri.

    InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> graphicFrameHierarchy(ref, UseDefaultIID());

    InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> childHierarchy(graphicFrameHierarchy->QueryChild(0));

    InterfacePtr<ILinkObject> iLinkObject(childHierarchy,UseDefaultIID());

    IDataBase* iDataBase = ::GetDataBase(childHierarchy);

    InterfacePtr<ILinkManager> iLinkManager(iDataBase,iDataBase->GetRootUID(),UseDefaultIID());

     

    ILinkManager::QueryResult linkQueryResult;

    UIDList linkList(iDataBase);

     

    if (iLinkManager->QueryLinksByObjectUID(::GetUID(childHierarchy), linkList)){

         UID linkUID = linkList.At(0);

         UIDRef linkUIDRef(iDataBase, linkUID);

         Utils<Facade::ILinkFacade>()->RelinkLink(linkUIDRef, uri, K2::kSuppressUI, linkUID);

    }
