Im doing an extension for OO writer. In my application a dialogbox is set to
appear and now I need to embed an animated .gif image in to that dialog box.
Can some one help me with that.
Thanx in advance
I have a StarBasic extension that shows an about-dialog with an image
from the extension bundle using roughly this code:
Sub ShowAboutDialog
Dim Dlg as Variant
DialogLibraries.LoadLibrary("MyLibrary")
Dlg = CreateUnoDialog(DialogLibraries.MyLibrary.AboutDialog)
On Error Resume Next
Dim InfoProvider as Variant
InfoProvider =
GetDefaultContext().GetByName("/singletons/com.sun.star.deployment.PackageInformationProvider")
Dim BaseUrl as String
BaseUrl = InfoProvider.GetPackageLocation(MY_PACKAGE_NAME)
BaseUrl = BaseUrl & "/graphics/"
Dlg.GetControl("MyLogoImage").Model.ImageURL = BaseUrl &
"my-logo.png"
On Error Goto 0
Dlg.Execute
Exit Sub
End Sub
MY_PACKAGE_NAME will be something like "com.mycompany.mylibrary.ooocalc".
The dialog has an ImageControl named "MyLogoImage". The .png file is in
a graphics/ directory that is just added to the .oxt (.zip) archive with
7-zip (or you can use regular WinZip etc.). I haven't done anything to
register the graphics files in the manifest or elsewhere; perhaps that's
slightly naughty but it works for me :-).
Hope this can inspire you.
Cheers
