Re: [dev] Programmatic XTextFrame Control with Java
Thanks for the help and comments.
I seem to have got it working, it needs more testing.
Surly there seems to be a bug here:
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "VertOrientPosition",
new Integer( 2 ) );
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "HoriOrientPosition",
new Integer( 12000 ) );
These properties are defined to take longs. VertOrient
can take a long, but gives odd results and the other
one takes a long but then throws a
IllegalArgumentException.
Below is the method, I will post this somewhere on a
snippets page, after I wait to see if I get any
comments, or at least after I test it a bit more.
manipulateText() is taken directly out of the
handbook.
Code Follows
#
public void frameTest() throws java.lang.Exception
{
mxDoc = this.bean.getTextDocument();
// get its text
mxDocText = ( XText ) mxDoc.getText();
// Create a document cursor and remember it
mxDocCursor = mxDocText.createTextCursor();
// Access the text document's multi service factory
mxDocFactory = ( XMultiServiceFactory )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XMultiServiceFactory.class,
mxDoc );
// Use the document's factory to create a new text
frame and immediately access
// it's XTextFrame interface
Object objectTextFrame = mxDocFactory.createInstance(
"com.sun.star.text.TextFrame" );
XTextFrame xFrame = ( XTextFrame )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XTextFrame.class,
objectTextFrame );
XPropertySet xpropertyset = ( XPropertySet )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XPropertySet.class, xFrame
);
xpropertyset.setPropertyValue( "AnchorType",
TextContentAnchorType.AT_PAGE );
// insert RectangleShape and get shape text, then
manipulate text
Object writerShape = mxDocFactory.createInstance(
"com.sun.star.drawing.TextShape" );
XShape xWriterShape = ( XShape )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XShape.class, writerShape
);
xWriterShape.setSize( new Size( 5, 5000 ) );
xWriterShape.setPosition(new Point(2,12000));
XTextContent xTextContentShape = ( XTextContent )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XTextContent.class,
writerShape );
mxDocText.insertTextContent( mxDocText.getEnd(),
xTextContentShape, false );
XPropertySet xShapeProps = ( XPropertySet )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XPropertySet.class,
writerShape );
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "AnchorType",
TextContentAnchorType.AT_PAGE );
// Setting the vertical position
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "VertOrient", new Short(
VertOrientation.NONE ) );
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "HoriOrient", new Short(
HoriOrientation.NONE ) );
// Setting the vertical position
// these really should be able to take longs
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "VertOrientPosition",
new Integer( 2 ) );
xShapeProps.setPropertyValue( "HoriOrientPosition",
new Long( 12000 ) );
XText xShapeText = ( XText )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XText.class, writerShape );
manipulateText( xShapeText );
}

Re: [dev] Programmatic XTextFrame Control with Java
Hi again,
I took your code and just added some lines. Here you are:
XInterface xTextFrameInterface = (XInterface)
mxDocFactory.createInstance("com.sun.star.text.TextFrame");
XTextContent xFrameContent = (XTextContent)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XTextContent.class,
xTextFrameInterface);
XTextRange xDocRange =
(XTextRange)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XTextRange.class,
mxDocFactory);
XText xText = xDocRange.getText();
xText.insertTextContent(xDocRange, xFrameContent, false);
XPropertySet xFramePropSet = (XPropertySet)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XPropertySet.class,
xTextFrameInterface);
xFramePropSet.setPropertyValue( "FrameHeightAbsolute",
new Long(5000));
xFramePropSet.setPropertyValue(
"FrameIsAutomaticHeight", Boolean.FALSE);
xFramePropSet.setPropertyValue( "SizeType", new
Short((short)1));
This should do the trick. Note that the text frame is inserted at the
end of your document. See the description of "insertTextContent".

Re: [dev] Programmatic XTextFrame Control with Java
Hi Kent,
the text frame is only really valid after you've inserted it in the
document.
See
http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/text/TextFrame.html
for a Basic example on how to insert the frame. If you need one in Java,
let me know.

Re: [dev] Programmatic XTextFrame Control with Java
thanks, I am now signed up to the api list. I don't
suppose in the interim my question was answered?
We would really like to integrate openoffice but we
need to able to place text with x,y coords and so far
I can't get it to work. Does anyone even know if this
is possible?
Whenever I set any of these properties on a XTextFrame
they are either ignored or I get
IllegalArgumentException:
HoriOrientPosition
VertOrientPosition
Width
Height
FrameHeightAbsolute
FrameWidthAbsolute
FrameWidthAbsolute
FrameIsAutomaticHeight
SizeType

[dev] Programmatic XTextFrame Control with Java
Hi-ya,
I would like to create XTextFrames of a fixed
arbitrary height and width and place them at arbitrary
x and y coordinates.
I can manage to get the frame, but I can't seem to
size it or place it arbitrarily. I have based my code
on the TextFrameExample() in TextDocuments.java.
These properties seem to have no effect:
XInterface xTextFrameInterface = (XInterface)
mxDocFactory.createInstance("com.sun.star.text.TextFrame");
XPropertySet xFramePropSet = (XPropertySet)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XPropertySet.class,
xTextFrameInterface);
xFramePropSet.setPropertyValue( "FrameHeightAbsolute",
new Long(5000));
xFramePropSet.setPropertyValue(
"FrameIsAutomaticHeight", new Boolean(false));
xFramePropSet.setPropertyValue( "SizeType", new
Short((short)1));
Also when I use xShape to define height and width, it
doesn't seem to work either. The textframe is only as
big as the text inside it.
XShape xShape = ( XShape ) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
XShape.class, xFrame );
// Access the XPropertySet interface of the TextFrame
XPropertySet xFrameProps = ( XPropertySet )
UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XPropertySet.class, xFrame
);
// Set the size of the new Text Frame using the
XShape's 'setSize' method
Size aSize = new Size();
// this is probably (1/100 mm)
aSize.Height = 400;
aSize.Width = 15000;
xShape.setSize(aSize);
If anyone has any pointers that would be grand.
