[dev] An image editing extension for Open office writer
Hi all , I'm engaging in developing an extension for OO writer which allows users to * Re-size/Zoom images with different parameters * Rotate images by 90 degrees (right or left) * Rotate images from 0 degrees to 360 degrees * Crop images effectively * Compress Images * Download images to the app directly from Flickr.com * Take screen shots/web-cam snaps and edit them * Add text/watermarks to images You need Java Run Time (JRE) in order to use this product .And as it involves some system calls this is more suitable for Windows users( I will update with a complete Linux version soon).This is still in beta phase with lot of possible improvements .And I also have my own To Do list which I'm hoping implement ASAP .You can visit Google project hosting page http://code.google.com/p/pixelplus/ Open Office Extensions Page http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/pixelpluz Youtube Introduction Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOGvHHYBSgs As this is my first step towards this wonderful and giant Open source developing community ,I will be really glad if you can hit me back with any feed backs .Please comment on the above pages mentioning any drawbacks/bugs/improvements .

Re: [dev] Re:Re: [dev] Re:Re: [dev] how to build in specific language
Hi ??, let me summarize. OOo does not have a full script type support: we use a hard coded table that assigns a script type to an ISO locale. Thus each locale can be used only with one script type. For Mongolian this means that the mn locale can be either used with traditional writing or with Cyrillic writing. Currently OOo uses the latter, by changing code (or adding a configuration item) it could be switched to use traditional Mongolian script (with some effort even on a per-document base). But it won't be possible to use both scripts in the same document. For further discussion of this problem please refer to issue 88665: http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=88665 Badral Sanligin (ba...@openoffice.org) provided us with a first implementation of the necessary writing direction support in the Writer code. We had several iterations to get some bugs fixed, added some support for object positioning etc. But it's still not done so that we don't think that the code is good enough to enable the new td-lr writing mode in our UI. If you want, you can start working on this, perhaps together with Badral. I will support you where possible. The first work from Badral will be available on the DEV300 code line soon and I will notify you when it's integrated.

It needs some more work before we can offer it to users, but if you wanted to work on that matter, we could help you getting started.

[dev] How to connect with other applications
I wonder if there is a best practice to connect with applications. So far many people used webservices such as REST or XMLRPC to connect with webapps. But I am wondering if there is a way to connect to third parties desktop applications. I know that the guys on the forum have been able to do this on windows with COM. However I think this is not a cross platform option. Firefox or more specifically thunderbird uses XPCOM to provide information between applications. My question is how does a smaller generic application connect with OOo without needing to open a socket like the uno dev example shows on the DevGuide? -- *Alexandro Colorado* *OpenOffice.org* Español http://es.openoffice.org

[dev] Restricting Some Features Dynamically
Hello, I am experimenting with restricting some features dynamically in opened OOo documents. For instance spreadsheet X would have its printing disabled, whereas Writer document Y would have editing disabled. The disabling of rights should happen when the document is opened. There are two ways that I can see: having an extension coded with UNO (doesn't look too easy to do that) or adding something to the core, maybe as a dedicated file format handler. Is there any other way to do it? Which way is simpler to implement?
