------------------------------------
Hi Jacques,
Here's the test case on OFBizPricatUtil:
1. Import the sample pricat file and download it;
2. Comment out the OFBizPricatUtil.formatCommentShape method used in pricat;
3. Rebuild and import the sample pricat file;
4. Download the commented pricat file;
5. Open it in Microsoft Excel, the style of comments is not readable.
6. Open it in OpenOffice or WPS, the style of comments is correct.
Unzip the commented pricat file (.xlsx), compare the files with/without running
OFBizPricatUtil.formatCommentShape, the difference is in
xl/drawings/vmlDrawing1.vml file. According to POI document:
In Excel 2007 VML drawings are used to describe properties of cell comments,
although the spec says that VML is deprecated:
The VML format is a legacy format originally introduced with Office 2000 and is
included and fully defined in this Standard for backwards compatibility
reasons. The DrawingML format is a newer and richer format created with the
goal of eventually replacing any uses of VML in the Office Open XML formats.
VML should be considered a deprecated format included in Office Open XML for
legacy reasons only and new applications that need a file format for drawings
are strongly encouraged to use preferentially DrawingML
Warning - Excel is known to put invalid XML into these files! For example, >br<
without being closed or escaped crops up.
See 6.4 VML - SpreadsheetML Drawing in Office Open XML Part 4 - Markup Language
Reference.pdf
By putting OFBizPricatUtil under POI path, I can call the protected method
XSSFVMLDrawing.findCommentShape and build the comments look right in Microsoft
Excel.
This is the reason. I'm sure there's a better way to do this.
Kind Regards,
