Re: [dev] Styles not updating from linked template
Hi Mathias This strange looking macro will set an internal switch in the document meta data that enables the template update procedure. BTW: the same macro will re-enable the update procedure in case you have switched it off by answering the question do you want to update your styles with No. yes it is strange :-) some magics behind ;-) You can execute this macro on every document if you want (e.g. by assigning it to the OnLoad event on application level), if the document is not based on a template it will not be modified by this macro. Do you think an addon would be valuable ? With a macro looping over all opened documents for example (the OnLMoad event is not applicable in this case unless chosen by user) Laurent -- Laurent Godard [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Ingénierie OpenOffice.org Indesko http://www.indesko.com Nuxeo CPS http://www.nuxeo.com - http://www.cps-project.org Livre Programmation OpenOffice.org, Eyrolles 2004 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [dev] Styles not updating from linked template
Hi Jean, The problems seems not to be reported till now. I have just submitted a new issue for the problem you have described: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=63440 Thanks, Mikhail. Jean Hollis Weber wrote: If this is not the right list for this question, please let me know where to ask it. I was directed here from the OOoAuthors list by Rick Barnes. Someone on the Writer forum reported this: the message you used to get when opening a document linked to a template, asking if you wanted to apply your current styles (after the styles in the template were changed), no longer appears in OOo2.0.2, and there seems to be no way to have the document's styles update if you want it to. I have confirmed this, but I don't know when the function (and the message) disappeared from OOo, because I haven't used linked templates since 1.1.x. Does anyone on this list know if this problem has been reported and if so, what the issue number is? (I can never find anything by searching IssueTracker.) I certainly hope it wasn't a deliberate omission, because this is a very important feature for many people, esp. those involved in a group project such as writing chapters of a book.

A fix will be available for 2.0.3. You will have to fix documents created with 2.0.2 though because the fix only can prevent the creation of further documents containing the error. Fortunately you can fix your documents already now and get the updating procedure back. Please do it in the following way: Load the document you want to fix, execute the following macro on it: Sub FixDocument TemplateName = ThisComponent.DocumentInfo.Template if TemplateName then ThisComponent.DocumentInfo.Template = TemplateName end if End Sub and then save the document. Next time when you open this document you will have the update from template feature back.
