Re: [dev] How can I embed OOo objects in a HTML documents?

2006-02-28 Thread Mikhail Voitenko
Hi Luiz,

OOo ActiveX control was designed to be a fullwindow viewer embedded in
MSIE browser. It was not designed to be used in HTML composition.
Although it might work somehow, there is no official support for this
feature currently.

Regards,
Mikhail.

 I need to embed a Calc ActiveX in a application, the application uses a HTML

 idea is use OOo ActiveX with PyUNO or something like that to get the job done.
 
 Thanks for some help

You can't. HTML does not support OLE objects so the function is not
offered in the user interface of Writer Web. Theoretically you can add
embedded objects via API (I didn't try but I assume that it can work)
but they will get lost on saving.

Are you using an old version of OOo?

In OOo 2.0.2rc2 I was able to embed Calc and Chart objects as OLE,
either linked to an existing file or new embedded object. While in
Writer/Web I could modify the Chart data etc. When I saved the
Writer/Web file, the Chart was saved as a gif image next to the saved
HTML file. Calc tables are converted to HTML tables (but I didn't check
the actual HTML source. It worked like a charm.
 
 
 Slight correction: OLE tables are converted to a gif image (the same as
 for charts) when the HTML file is saved. CopyPaste gives the option to
 convert to HTML tables.
 
 
I don't imagine you can read the HTML file back in and get your OLE
objects back, but you could probably save the document as a template
format if you want to re-use it again later.
 
 
 Just checked: I could export the Writer/Web HTML file to .odt, re-open
 it, then save as HTML.
 
 So it's not magic, but it is very useful.

Re: [dev] OOo 2.0.2_RC2 icons and About pane.

 Some of this may be better put in an issue report, but ...
 
 This is not such a petty thing - all the icons seem to have changed from
 what they were in v2.0.1. Is this simply an aesthetic change, or was
 there a serious problem with the previous icons? Just wondering why it's
 worth confusing users at a micro version change - usually these thing
 change only at major version increments. 

It was a big request of the developer community to integrate new
features more often, preferrably in the next possible release. Reading
your comment it seems you can't please everybody. sigh

 It also affects work on the
 documentation projects. Luckily the OOo2 user guide hasn't quite got as
 far as updating images yet - but it's very close - I believe GRS want's
 to link the icon images, but then there are the screenshot images to
 cope with.
 
 It may be a matter of getting used to them, but I thought the previous
 icons more clearly conveyed what they represent.

People wanted the new icons because they are more like the ones they
have on their desktop. I agree that the previous one are better and IIRC
you can still use them. Choice is good. :-)

 Also, the Help - About window still shows OOo 2.0. This is a current
 issue because users are finding it difficult to describe which version
 they're using on the users lists. They're generally told to press an
 obscure key combination to display the build version and credits. This
 slows communication down quite a bit while the users list goes through
 an unnecessary REQUEST/PLEASE CONFIRM/UPDATED REQUEST/ANSWER cycle.

This has been fixed for OOo2.0.2.

Best regards,
Mathias

Usually the only sense that Writer/Web has is that it shouldn't offer
anything that can not be stored into HTML. I thought that applies to OLE
objects also. Obviously my memory fooled me, so sorry for the confusion.

I still maintain the point that the OLE objects get lost on saving to
HTML. Having them converted to graphics is a data loss because you can't
edit them any longer.

You can save your WebDocument to odt, yes, but then why using Writer/Web
at all? As I wrote above, WriterWeb is just a Writer document with a
reduced function set that should hinder users to add content to their
documents that will get lost on saving them to HTML. So consequently
inserting OLE shouldn't be possible in Writer/Web. If you wanted to add
OLE objects and get them converted to graphics on HTML export you can
use the normal Writer.

Mathias

I realize that you are not the correct person to contact about
this but I have emailed [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (I guessed at that one out of desperation),
over the last 2 weeks and have gotten no replies.

Username:  billjonesronald (also tried billjonesronald1)
email:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have never received back a confirmation notice from the registering 
system

containing my initial password!  I started this process on 2-13-06.

Can you please pass this request on to someone that can setup my
account and have an initial password sent to me?  The system does
know that billjonesronald already exists, but I still do not have an
initial password from the system to get started.  IF NECESSARY,
CALL ME (PHONE BELOW) AND LEAVE IT ON MY MESSAGE BOX.

I have OpenOffice2.0 on my Mac OS X (10.3.9) with X11 1.0, and would 
like

to contribute to your effort.

(NOTE: an email to a forum person that was brave enough to list
 his email address at www.oooforum.org (andrew something)
 took pity on me when I was having problems getting 
registered
 there.  He was good enough to send my request to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 and I did end up getting registered there within a day, 
but the username
 and emial and password (billjonesronald, 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], x)
 that work there at oooforum.org will not work at 
openoffice.org.)


Woe is me

Re: [dev] Memory Issues

2006-02-28 Thread Kent Gibson
sorry to sound obvious, but have you tried the
XCloseable interface?

As per the documentation if it supports xcloseable
then use it. For example in the writer you should
close a document using xcloseable (ie close the model
and the controller and frame gets closed). It also
talks about the fact that you are responible for
disposing of all xcomponents you create.

 Hi,
 
 I think I just have the answer about crystal icons, but I can be  
 wrong...
 
 Le 1 mars 06 à 00:20, Ross Johnson a écrit :
 
  According to the spec document for this new feature, this is where an
  Icon Style listbox is proposed to be located. So it looks like this  
  may
  be coming but isn't there yet.
 
  I do see that the images_crystal.zip is in the package. But how do I
  choose it?
 
 IMHO, that's maybe not possible with your locale. I have tested with  
 french m156 and m157 : unfortunaly, it does not work* for both.
 
 *Does not work means works for en-US, or de, but *not* for french (my  
 little case) or other locales
 
 Now, what we found (helped by kendy and Pavel later) :
 
 Crystal is localized for de and en-US only (you can verify in svx/ 
 source/dialog/optgdlg.src, greping  Crystal  )
 but there is still no Crystal string in corresponding localize.sdf  
 file in the same directory.
 
 So at this time, and if I'm not wrong, no way to make it work cleanly  
 for other locales than de and en-US, and just wait** the good strings  
 come will help ...
 

Many thanks for this information. The answer then is to update my
localisation package to make the Options - View dialog work. I found one
for OOo2.0.2rc1 Linux at

http://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/

It works! I can set the icon style to Default (or any others).

From your clues again, if there isn't a localisation package available,
you can change icon style and still run with your older localisation
pack by setting the Interface locale to US, restarting OOo, setting the
icon style then resetting your preferred Interface locale and restarting
OOo again.

Best regards.
Ross
