Hi Mike,
Thanks to recent help from the API DEV group volunteers, the below
routine works well when creating one shape....
sub set_draw(byval oPage as variant, byval Gradient as variant,_
byval Shape1 as variant, byval PShape as variant,_
byval PolyPolygon as variant, byval Shapes as object, byval Group
as object)
PShape.PolyPolygon = Array(Shape1())
PShape.Name = "Test" & asc(jj)
oPage.add(PShape)
' combine drawing elements
Shapes.add(PShape)
Group = oPage.group(Shapes)
jj=jj+1
end sub
However, when called several times with design data points for several
shapes, during the same program session, the routine will create several
groups, but only one shape -- this shape ending up being a
representation of the last design entity and residing in the last group ...
Is there an equivalent to using PShape as an array? I tried this and it
did not seem to work.
Hard to see what doesn't work from this snippet :-)
Well I tried the following and it nicely inserts me several
PolypolygonShapes.
-------------------------------------------------------
sub main
Shapes = ThisComponent.DrawPages(0)
createShape(-3500)
createShape(0)
createShape(3500)
Shapes.group(Shapes)
end sub
sub createShape(addme as Integer)
aShape =
ThisComponent.createInstance("com.sun.star.drawing.PolyPolygonShape")
Shapes = ThisComponent.DrawPages(0)
Shapes.add(aShape)
Dim oSize As new com.sun.star.awt.Size
Dim oPosition As new com.sun.star.awt.Point
oSize.Width = 0
oSize.Height = 0
oPosition.X = 500+addme
oPosition.Y = 500+addme
aShape.Size = oSize
aShape.Position = oPosition
Dim ps1(3) As new com.sun.star.awt.Point
ps1(0).X = 5000+addme : ps1(0).Y = 5000+addme
ps1(1).X = 10000+addme : ps1(1).Y = 5000+addme
ps1(2).X = 10000+addme : ps1(2).Y = 10000+addme
ps1(3).X = 5000+addme : ps1(3).Y = 10000+addme
Dim ps2(3) As new com.sun.star.awt.Point
ps2(0).X = 6500+addme : ps2(0).Y = 6500+addme
ps2(1).X = 8500+addme : ps2(1).Y = 6500+addme
ps2(2).X = 8500+addme : ps2(2).Y = 8500+addme
ps2(3).X = 6500+addme : ps2(3).Y = 8500+addme
Dim psA(1) As Variant
psA(0) = ps1()
psA(1) = ps2()
aShape.setPropertyValue("PolyPolygon", psA())
End sub

Hope that helps

Stephan
