Line connecting objects in spread using vertices

Hallo,

I have been trying to trace a line round the outer objects in a spread, ie using the outer vertice coordinates to plot a line from the corners of the outermost objects so that changes in width, random or spread number are reflected in the line coordinates. In the simple example i’ve attached i just use a spead of 4 boxes, but can only create a line round a single object not between the outer corners of objects in the spread. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

thanx
otto
