Re: [libreoffice-users] Reveal code, old macros convert them to LO
Indeed... A single style may cause multiple changes. I don't remember how that is displayed in the macro.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Reveal code, old macros convert them to LO
I don't remember the details of the sxw format. Perhaps reveal codes were appropriate then. However, ODF files have a complex SGML or HTML or XML type format, along with a form of CSS, unlike WordPerfect and similar programs, which used embedded code to delineate format changes. That is, there are no format codes to reveal in ODF documents. Any program that pretended to show some kind of "format code" would be hopelessly misleading.

[libreoffice-users] Gallery file format specifiation for *.sdg *.sdv *.thm
Hello, some days ago i look at LibreOffice Gallery files found for example in directory %APPDATA%\LibreOffice\4\user\gallery or /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/gallery . For each Gallery there exist 4 different files. One with file name extension "sdv" seems to be an ole2 compound document. The file with sdg extension seems to contain thumbnail preview in BMP format. But does there exist a file format specification for LibreOffice Galleries? And does there exist other software that can open and display Gallery files?

Right, you have to select a paragraph and then the formatting code was revealed, but it was by no means updated when you wrote, or something like this. I still consider it as very useful (I know one of the macros had a result which looked closer to WP than the others, but I don't remember which of the 3 macros it was) -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

Re: [libreoffice-users] Reveal code, old macros convert them to LO
I don't think it was that much code. I might even have a working copy from a few years back, but won't have computer access until next week. Might have deleted it. If you can't make it work, remind me next week and I can take a look.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Reveal code, old macros convert them to LO
just so we're clear, the macro functionality was not even close to the functionality in word perfect. all the macro did, was displaying a dialogue all of the codes. There is certainly a lot of use for this, but nothing near what you do automatically in word perfect.

[libreoffice-users] Reveal code, old macros convert them to LO
Hi >From time to time the question pops up whether LO could support Wordperfects reveal code. The developer are not too keen, and sometimes it is stated that this feature could be implemented by a macro/extension. Now I remember that long time ago such macros existed and using the wayback machine I found them. They were written around 2005 for OO 1.2, using the sxw format. I tried them out in LO 6.2 and they don't work. Is there somebody with enough knownledge in macros to translate those macros to LO 6.2?
