I looked at my working code.

Every where I set the rect, I do so by:

  XPDFViewer_Set "pdfViewer","RECT", rect of grc "pdfRect" of grp "pdfViewer" of me

where the graphic "pdfRect is a rectangle that is used to to map the area the pdf viewer appears in.

Try creating a graphic called whatever you want. Set the rect of it to 100,100,500,500 and then

XPDFViewer_Set "pdfviewer", "rect", rect of graphic <whateverUcalledIt>

Hi,

i am using the following script to open a selected PDF file in the xpdf viewer, 
but  i am not successful.

answer file "PDF..."

if it is empty then exit top

put it into tFilename

XPDFViewer_Open "pdfviewer", the windowID of this stack

XPDFViewer_Set "pdfviewer", "filename",tFilename

XPDFViewer_Set "pdfviewer", "rect", (100,100,500,500)

XPDFViewer_Set "pdfviewer", "visible", TRUE

put xpdfviewer_Get("pdfviewer","rect")


The PDF viewer does not show up and the function pxdfviewer_get gives 0,0,0,0 
back for the rect.

Is there something wrong with my script?
Or does anyone have working sample stack?

Regards,
