I'm using OOo 2.3 on Ubuntu Linux. I have macros that change the paragraph margin indents and want them to be called from specific autotext events, but it's not working. I've defined the macros and the autotext items. I do this:
- Edit->AutoText - Pick the AutoText item I want to call a macro - Select from the button to the right AutoText->Macro - The Assign Macro window opens up. - I click on the Macros window and navigate to get to the macro I want (My Macros.Screenwriting.Film.Margin1) - I click Assign to assign this macro to the AutoText before inserting text. - The object path (vnd.sun.star.script:Screenwriting.Film.Margin1?language=Basic&location=application(.) appears in the table showing that it is assigned to "Before inserting AutoText." - Click OK to close that window Then, from the AutoText window I click on the AutoText item again and go to the Macro window to see if it's assigned and it isn't. Even if I don't do this and just close the AutoText window, it's still not assigned. I can assign the macro to an AutoText, but I can't make it stick. I thought maybe some of the AutoText info was being stored elsewhere than in my home directory so I might not have write permission to the folder, but if that were true, I could not save the AutoText in the first place. So even though I'm doing what seems like the right thing, why can't I assign a macro to an autotext? Thanks for any help on this.
