[libreoffice-users] close application/document
Hi, When I close my document/application with a java macro such as: XModel xDocModel = xScriptContext.getDocument(); xDocModel.dispose(); then the doc and application close but I notice that the soffice.bin and .exe (Windows 7) are still running as processes. The bad thing is that if I try to open another .odt file then it won't show up on screen (I will end up having several soffice.bin/.exe processes running but no GUI). I've read somewhere that I should use .close(true) instead of .dispose() but I can't seem to find the .close method in Java. Any hints? Anyway, is there anything wrong with .dispose()?

I found the way to do it with Java:
XCloseable xcloseable = (XCloseable) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
XCloseable.class, xDocModel);
try {
xcloseable.close(true);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
and it closes the doc/app BUT soffice.bin and .exe are still running when the
GUI closes
Weird.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Database field on top of PDF document
Ok thanks. I tried that. It worked. You need a form with a transparent background which took a little work with gimp ( http://www.ehow.com/how_8422694_remove-white-gimp.html). Then I used a table to place the fields where I wanted them.. So I can see a method to get this handled. What would be much easier would be to be able to make the image a background layer or a watermark (like microsoft), overlay it with a transparent table and then place the fields to match the form. I wouldn't have to go the extra step of making the background transparent. If you have a lot of fields, it's a lot of clicking. The other way I could do it is have a blank form, place the fields on a transparent table for precise locations, then overprint the hardcopy form. Then I would have to scan the completed document. Either way - there are some extra steps to get what I want, but it can be done. So... Thanks.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Database field on top of PDF document
Hi :) Wow! The hap seemed to make that quite complicated in Gimp. I just 1. right-click on the layer in the side-panel to Add Alpha Channel. 2. then up to the top-menu-bar to click on Select and Select by colour 3. click on the colour i want to see through 4. hit the delete key (well, press it softly really) 5. save in a format that does support transparencies, such as NOT jpg That would get the insides of all the boxes/fields in one go. Tbh i thought there was a way of setting an image to be at the very back or even as a water-mark. Draw might be better for this and then create text-boxes over the parts of the image you want to write on. So, i am not quite sure why we went the Gimp route but i like using Gimp and it's good to learn new tricks with it.

Re: [libreoffice-users] close application/document
By the way, the same thing happens if I use a Basic macro with a call to:
thisComponent.close(true)
The soffice.{bin,exe} processes keep running in the background when they
shouldn't (even on Windows, I'm not using the quickstarter).
I'm expecting the processes to terminate after .close() (I don't want the extra
memory footprint).
So could this be a bug?

That is correct. These are forms that are available to me as pdf's without fillable fields. Even if the fields were fillable - I want to fill them from a database.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Database field on top of PDF document
I have only done it 1 or 2 times myself, but that has not been my experience. Yes, there are different types of pdf files out there. Some, the pdf form could actually be modified, the others, not. However, just positioning text fields in the form blanks was easy enough. Once I got one text block formatted to what I wanted, I just copy-pasted it into the other fields and edited the text. Making the text field bigger or smaller to account for different sizes of form fields was not a problem for me in Draw - just grab the tags. I even was able to scan my signature in as a graphic and paste it in the proper place. That took a bit of technique, since the graphic was not transparent and if it were not small enough to fit in the space allotted, it would blank out parts of the form around it. I recommend just keeping the scan edges close to the script and it should be okay. Why did I do it? My handwriting is not what it once was and I wanted the reader to be able to read my entries without mistakes. As it turned out in one case, they messed it up anyway! :-( Girvin Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Hmmm, i always struggle with it quite a lot. Not that i have done it much.

I tried that. It worked. You need a form with a transparent background which took a little work with gimp ( http://www.ehow.com/how_8422694_remove-white-gimp.html). Then I used a table to place the fields where I wanted them.. So I can see a method to get this handled. I am a bit lost as to what it is exactly you are trying to achieve. You don't say what it is you want as your PDF document and what that has to do with Writer ? For example, in Base, you can create a database form with a background image that will have some degree of transparency. You can also do this independently as a Writer document, into which you insert your fields from your database. It is possible to insert and image in this Writer document which can be set to be a watermark, i.e. with a degree of transparency. Where does the PDF come in ? Are you exporting your form to FPDF ? Sorry, but I guess I'm missing something.

[libreoffice-users] Impress Templates
Are there any sources I can find some better, cleaner, and more modern looking Impress templates? The Presentation-Templates section at LO only has a couple for 4.x. I installed an extension for OOo called Modern Templates which gave me a few extra, but none of them were really any good. -- Sajan Parikh /Owner, Noppix LLC/ e: sa...@noppix.com p: (563) 726-0371 Noppix LLC Logo -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-users] close application/document
Off hand, it sounds like a bug...
If I close a document from the GUI, it opens the desktop thing. I
wonder why a macro works differently. This is probably due to
interaction between the macro infrastructure and LO, but I am only
guessing. If you open a bug against it, indicate that here and I will
add some comments to your bug.

By the way, the same thing happens if I use a Basic macro with a call to:
thisComponent.close(true)
The soffice.{bin,exe} processes keep running in the background when they
shouldn't (even on Windows, I'm not using the quickstarter).
I'm expecting the processes to terminate after .close() (I don't want the extra
memory footprint).
So could this be a bug?
