Hi all, I'm translating dispatch commands to regular API calls for a project I'm currently working on: http://www.paolo-mantovani.org/downloads/DispatchToApiRecorder/
I've a 'problem' with the following dispatch command in Calc: .uno:NumberFormatIncDecimals As you can imagine, this command modify the number format in the selected cell/range, adding a decimal place. Tha 'API translation' that I've found is really huge! about 26 rows. You can see it at the end of this post. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but in this case, the code is generated from a macro recorder, and the target is the average user, so my concern is to keep things as simple as more as it is possible. So my question is: Perhaps there is a more convenient way to add/remove decimal places from a cell number format via API? thank you Paolo Mantovani ---------------------------------------------------- ' the dispatch command to "translate" : 'Dispatcher.executeDispatch(DocumentFrame,".uno:NumberFormatIncDecimals" ,"" ,0 ,Array()) ' the "translation" : ' Retrieve current number format settings FormatKey = DocumentView.Selection.NumberFormat FormatProperties = DocumentModel.NumberFormats.getByKey(NumberFormatKey) ' Create a new format string based on the current one ' (but with a further decimal place) FormatString = DocumentModel.NumberFormats.generateFormat( _ FormatKey, _ FormatProperties.Locale, _ FormatProperties.ThousandsSeparator, _ FormatProperties.NegativeRed, _ FormatProperties.Decimals + 1, _ FormatProperties.LeadingZeros _ ) ' Retrieve or create a key for the generated format string FormatKey = DocumentModel.NumberFormats.queryKey( _ FormatString,FormatProperties.Locale, True) If FormatKey = - 1 Then FormatKey = DocumentModel.NumberFormats.addNew( _ FormatString, FormatProperties.Locale) End If ' apply the number format to the current selection DocumentView.Selection.NumberFormat = FormatKey --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
