it would be an interesting challenge, however. (and very useful if released as uno component !) I did something similar in the BasicAddonBuilder package : http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensions_Packager infact, the menu / toolbar preview are implemented in StarBasic using many awt controls created and managed runtime. The menu preview (pseudo) control is in practice a table with four columns, so I hope you can find some useful ideas. All the related code is in the MenuPreview and ToolbarPreview modules (library BasicAddonBuilderServices) There is a problem because AWT does not supply "logical colors" so in certain cases a custom component does not respect the environment settings. Another problem is the integration into AWT dialogs: Dialog controls are normally created via the DialogModel::XMultiServiceFactory interface. Unfortunately there is no way (AFAIK) to register your own controls in that factory. You can create awt controls from the default ServicaManager, but they will not support the UnoControlDialogElement service (that supply properties like Step, TabIndex, Tag etc.) So I had to use a trick to add my "pseudo" awt controls and make them to behave properly in the "host" dialog. regards Paolo M --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
