[api-dev] API documentation and improving interactivity
Hi during OOoCon a conversation started about the lack of examples on the API documentation as far as contributions goes. Basically there are several places where to go to: - API Documentation - CodeSnippets - Developer Guide - OOo Wiki The main issue is that users and readers have low accessibility to introduce examples or comments on the documentation. There have been some possible solutions discussed: - Move the API Docs to the Wiki - Version the API Docs depending on the OOo version - Close codeSnippets or move it to a technology that allow users to just paste snippets directly on the site As always the issue becomes lack of resources, time and information. My feeling is that if we air this topic with possible solutions would help us find better solutions. I do have a small script that allow me to clean off the documentation from the collabnet HTML and just isolate the HTML snippet. My next step could be to find a converter from HTML to a wikilang that allow us to easy publish it on the wiki and publish it on the wiki as a service (batch upload). Help is welcomed. -- *Alexandro Colorado* *OpenOffice.org* Español http://es.openoffice.org
[api-dev] Inserting a chart to a calc document
Hi, I have been trying to insert a chart to a calc spread sheet in java language. I followed the steps in the developer's guide wiki http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Charts/Creating_and_Adding_a_Chart_to_a_Spreadsheet . But I cannot see the inserted chart in my spreadsheet document. Then I tried connecting a controller to the created chart document, but this was also unsuccessful. Is there any other steps other than the ones in the wiki I should follow in order see the created chart in the document ? -- Best regards, Pivithuru Wijegunawardana University of Moratuwa Sri Lanka

Make sure you pass a valid rectangle for the position. These are 1/100th millimeters, so if you pass a small size, you don't see the chart. You could check if the chart appears in the navigator under OLE objects.
