[dev] help with dialog boxes
hi, . its my first time developing the dialog boxes, hence need some help. i have a dialog box to be implemented, for reference it can be seen here: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org_Internship/Projects/2010/Customizable_html_export_for_Impress#Option_8 . the code i am using to put a fixedtext(label) on the dialog is: WindowDescriptor windowDescriptor; windowDescriptor.Type = WindowClass_SIMPLE; windowDescriptor.WindowServiceName = OUString( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(fixedtext) ); windowDescriptor.Bounds = Rectangle( 6, 46, 59, 13 ); windowDescriptor.WindowAttributes = VclWindowPeerAttribute::CLIPCHILDREN; windowDescriptor.ParentIndex = -1; windowDescriptor.Parent = Reference XWindowPeer ( mxDialogWindow, UNO_QUERY_THROW ); Reference XWindow xLabel( mxToolkit-createWindow( windowDescriptor ), UNO_QUERY_THROW ); Reference XFixedText xFixedText( xLabel, UNO_QUERY_THROW ); xFixedText-setText(OUString( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(Template) )); xFixedText-setAlignment(0); xLabel-setVisible( sal_True ); . the question is,,, how can i set the font properties??? like bold,font size etc, i.e FontDescriptor . another question is how can i add images to mxDialogWindow, such that i can set its source URL at runtime along with other properties like stretch to fit??? . I am not sure about this,, but i observed the services regarding UNOControls which really interests me, ex: http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/awt/UnoControlImageControl.html,, is there a way to use them in my DialogWindow , i.e mxDialogWindow??? . . regards and thanks Kushal Likhi

Re: [dev] Improve MS Office Calc compatibility - easy2fix patch

To improve compatibility I suggest to increase max number of sheets to 512. There is already submitted issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=35901 I checked it and it could be done without problems (All variables are defined as SCTAB or long type). It is easy2fix issue. What do you think about this idea? There are some fixed-size arrays and loops, so we would have to look for performance implications first.

Re: [dev] help with dialog boxes
Hello Kushal, its my first time developing the dialog boxes, hence need some help. i have a dialog box to be implemented, for reference it can be seen here: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org_Internship/Projects/2010/Customizable_html_export_for_Impress#Option_8 . the code i am using to put a fixedtext(label) on the dialog is: WindowDescriptor windowDescriptor; ehm ... What you do here is to create a mere window peer, without an associated control, or even control model. While this is possible, some things you'll want to achieve will become more difficult by this (admittedly, some will become easier ...) The correct way to do this would be - obtain the dialog model (I suppose you have one, yes?) - let it create a control model - insert this control model into the dialog model In pseudo-code, this would look like this XMultiServiceFactory controlModelFactory = (XMultiServiceFactory)dialogModel; XPropertySet controlModel = (XPropertySet) controlModelFactory.createInstance( com.sun.star.awt.UnoControlFixedTexModel ) controlModel.setPropertyValue( PositionX, ... ); controlModel.setPropertyValue( ... ); XNameContainer modelContainer = (XNameContainer)dialogModel; modelContainer.insertByName( MyControl, controlModel ); After the insertion, your dialog window (mxDialogWindow) will automatically have a new child window, which corresponds to the control model you just inserted. windowDescriptor.Type = WindowClass_SIMPLE; windowDescriptor.WindowServiceName = OUString( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(fixedtext) ); windowDescriptor.Bounds = Rectangle( 6, 46, 59, 13 ); Note that you're using fixed pixel coordinates here. This will work for your particular system/desktop/theme, but is likely to break on other desktops. The problem is that as soon as, for instance, the font size changes, your pixel coordinates will be wrong. Model properties (PositionX, PositionY, Width, Height), on the other hand, use AppFont coordinates: 1 means 1/8 of the average height/width of a character of the application's UI font. So, when you work with models instead of windows, your dialog will automatically adjust itself to different desktops. the question is,,, how can i set the font properties??? like bold,font size etc, i.e FontDescriptor At the model (controlModel in the above example code), you'd find a property FontDescriptor, being a css.awt.FontDescriptor structure, which has all the members you need. another question is how can i add images to mxDialogWindow, such that i can set its source URL at runtime along with other properties like stretch to fit??? Use the same code as above, but let the dialog's factory create an css.awt.UnoControlImageControlModel, and set its ImageURL and ScaleMode properties (http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/awt/UnoControlImageControlModel.html) Ciao Frank - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org
[dev] cannot open old binary autocorr.dat
Hi, sorry for asking such old stuff, but we have several users with autocorr.dat's (originally created with SO 5.2/4.0). These files worked in SO 7.0 without problems. But in OO 3.2 these files will not open anymore :-( I noticed, in that case the file format is not zip (as newly created acor.dat's in SO 7.0 are). so i guess, SO 7.0 was able to read and write this old binary *.dat's. Any hints how we can convert these files or extract the data ?
