This is what LibreOffice has recorded:

sub insertalpha
rem --
rem define variables
dim document   as object
dim dispatcher as object
rem --
rem get access to the document
document   = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")

rem --
dim args1(1) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args1(0).Name = "Symbols"
args1(0).Value = "α"
args1(1).Name = "FontName"
args1(1).Value = "ＭＳ Ｐゴシック"

dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:InsertSymbol", "", 0, args1())

rem --
rem dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:InsertSymbol", "", 0, 
Array())



end sub

I am interested in seeing the macro that you are using.


Well, I am not actually "writing" the macro - I have no idea how to do 
that.
I use "Tools -> Macros -> Record macro" and open the "insert special 
characters dialog box".

THIS is where the problem is.
As far as I can tell, there is no way NOT to select a font in that dialog.
On top you have the "Search / Font / Subset" fields.
"Font" gives you a list of fonts, but not the choice of "none / 
automatic" etc. - or allows you to delete the currently selected font.

I had been hoping to find that kind of choice.

Mr. Pitonyak. Please don't worry. I am not in a hurry. I have been 
pondering this for years already ...


Thank you.

Good morning
I have another strange question.
Work related I have to insert not infrequently symbols into texts.
To make work easier, I have already created a number of macros to insert
for example the symbol "micro" into a text using a keyboard shortcut.

Problem:
Let's say, I created the macro in a document that happened to use
"Arial" as font and later want to use it in a document that uses "Times
Roman". The macro I created then inserts an "Arial font micro" into the
Times Roman text, which then looks out of place.

Is there a trick to create macros, so that the inserted symbol matches
the surrounding font?
I have tried all sorts of things, but could not yet find a solution.
It is not really a "problem", but such an automatic font adjustment
would be nice/helpful.

Thank you.

if I wrote a macro that inserts the letter 'X', I would not expect the 
insertion to specify the font unless I went out of my way to do so.

I am interested in seeing the macro that you are using.

I'm not able right now to try to find a macro that would do what you want, but 
if you can't find one let me know, and I will see if I can provide one for you 
after I look at the macro you are using now.

Understand, however, the next two days for me will be hit or miss on 
availability.

[libreoffice-users] automatic font selection in macro

[Thomas Blasejewicz]

Good morning
I have another strange question.
Work related I have to insert not infrequently symbols into texts.
To make work easier, I have already created a number of macros to insert

"Arial" as font and later want to use it in a document that uses "Times 
Roman". The macro I created then inserts an "Arial font micro" into the 
Times Roman text, which then looks out of place.

[libreoffice-users] Re: [Solved] LO 6.2 throwing "NoSuchElementException" errors

[Roy]

Thanks much, Italo. In the end it turned out to be a problem with my
config file. While I saw nothing strange there, starting from scratch
did the trick.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Why do adding OXT palettes, not show alpha sorted?

Here is a link for what I am talking about.

http://libreoffice-na.us/font-color-palette-unsorted.jpg

Is there a reason why the list of color palettes is not sorted?

Any way to get it sorted, or do this needs to be done on the 
design/coding side?


Here is the start of my palette collection and individual one is OXT 
files.


http://libreoffice-na.us



I do see a sorted list , starting with

'costom'

than 'A' - 'Z'

than 'a' - 'z'

than 'Document colors'

(i just upgraded from 6.0.? to 6.2.0.3)







What is not sorted is the list of Color Palettes installed

Adler-color1200-Colors Palette-Collections.oxt 
Akzo-Nobel-Colormap-FD-Colors Pantano-Coated Resene-Colors Lego Brick 
Colors Saturated-Percent-Colors Name-That-Color Shading-Pan-Colors 
NBS-colors This is not sorted. When you have a large palette collection 
- over 60 - it is really hard to find the wanted palette. I will be 
reduce the Palette Collection OXT file to a smaller number. This will be 
after I decide which ones I do not want to use. About half may be 
removed and made into their own Color Palette OXT files. SO, is there 
any way to get the Color Palette Name drop down list sorted by 
alpha/name "A"- "Z"? Every one I will make will have an uppercase letter 
as its first letter of the palette's name.
