Hello Jaime,

I want to export some flowcharts I've done with OOoDraw to html,
preserving links. Unfortunately, the slides are exported as plain
images.
I want to develop this functionality, using image maps in html for
adding the links where they belong. I was thinking about working on
the export filter, but I haven't done anything like this before. I
guess a macro would work as well, which would lead me to unearth my
programming neurons from college... ;-)
Are these alternatives feasible? Any suggestions?
As the export to draw shapes is a desireable goal for the exisiting
XHTML filter as well, I recommend that to try to improve this filter,
instead of creating a macro, so everybody may gain from your efforts.
As we already found out, the draw images are not pure SVG images nor
would any SVG images that would be exported to XHTML been shown in
common browsers without a plugin. Therefore the best thing seems to
export the draw objects as images.
The creation of an extra folder containing these images, close to the
created XHTML document seem reasonable, similar to the saving of
website functionality provided by browsers.
You might accomplish the saving of draw images (XShape) using the OOo
API, as the Component calling the filter knows about the office and
the document to be transformed (Some API basic: a document contains a
collection of pages, each page contains a collection of shapes, which
can be saved to an arbitrary image format).
This saving mechanism might even be triggered once from within the XSL
transformation, when a draw image is encontered.
If you are interested, I going to provide you with more detailed
information.
Regards,
Svante

Your suggestions seem pretty reasonable to me. I'd appreciate if you can
send me the additional information mentioned in your last message.
Thank you
Jaime
PS: Why is that browsers do not support vector images like SVG?
