Re: [libreoffice-users] Create scan button?

[James Knott]

That works, sort of.  I have to leave the size at small to see the
icon.  If I leave it at large or automatic, as originally set, I don't
see it.  I'll have to try a different size icon, to see if that helps. 
However, it did say 16x16 was the best size.

tnx jk

Could be you have to change it in the toolbar, too. I have only tested
this with a macro I added to a toolbar - so the command couldn't be
found anywhere else.


I tried that.  When I look at "Visible buttons", the icon is shown,
along with the word Request, but still not on the tool bar.

Yep.  I even tried one of the icons that came with LO and same thing. 
Just text, no icon on the tool bar.

Re: Fwd: [libreoffice-users] Macro Dim Dialog and Control

[Andrew Pitonyak]

Sorry, using my phone for this... And off the top of my head...

Each object usually supports multiple interfaces...

In basic, the actual type does not matter.

Names starting with an x refer to an interface.

I need to look it up, but I think that the preference was a variant rather than 
object, but...

It may no longer matter

The developer who told me this could not remember why it when it mattered

And

I only had a problem because of it once, and that was years ago.

Other languages, like Java, it matters. I'd we had a smarter IDE it might be 
useful to declare the actual type.

Hi,
I tried to insert the button (using the icon you found), but the only
thing I was able to get is text describing the function of the button.
Never was able to get the icon only. Looks like a bug.
I'm on LO 5.4.2.2, on Linux/Fedora 25.

No, I actually faked it for this mailing list. The real name is in Swedish,
so I figured it would be easier for you guys if I picked an English name
instead, just for this example. But the name isn't the problem anyway. My
question is if there is an ”extended data type” for dialogs and controls,
just like there is for sheets (com.sun.star.sheet.XSpreadsheet) and cells (
com.sun.star.table.XCell). I searched for and while and thought that
com.sun.star.awt.XDialog could be it for dialogs, but as I said, I got that
error message. When I used Object, like you do below, everything worked for
me too, but my question wasn't about getting it working, it was if there is
such a data type. I'm not doing anything particular, I'm just trying to
learn this new stuff about those ”new data types”, that I enable by
selecting Tools → Options… → LibreOffice → Advanced → Activate experimental
features, then restart LibreOffice, then Tools → Options… → LibreOffice →
Basic IDE options → ☒ Use extended data types (give or take some words or
phrases, since this is a translation from Swedish).

When trying to get information I found this page:
https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Basic_IDE_Options#Use_extended_types

However, they only provided two examples of those new data types (the two I
mention above), and there's no link or anything that points to the rest of
them, so it's pretty useless, unfortunately.

Yes, that's how I used to do it, and it usually work for me too, but this
wasn't what I asked about. My question is about those new data types,
mentioned on the page I referred to above.

I'm sorry for my confusing English, which obviously isn't my native
language.
Thanks for replying, though! :)

Could be you have to change it in the toolbar, too. I have only tested
this with a macro I added to a toolbar - so the command couldn't be

I tried that.  When I look at "Visible buttons", the icon is shown,
along with the word Request, but still not on the tool bar.

Hi James,

 You could also add an icon to "Request". Choose the added "Request" and
 change the icon. There would appear a dialog with icons.

Actually, I found a way to create a functioning button, as describe in
another message.  At the moment, the problem is getting the button to
display a scanner icon.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Create scan button?

[jorge Rodríguez]

Hi James and all:

    I suggest to use a Macro. If you don't know what it is, is a 
feature that LibreOffice has to automate the process. It usually run 
well but sometimes crash. To able you can follow this steps:


1) Menu-Tools-Options-Advanced: There Check box "Enable_Macro Recording"

2) Menu-Tools-Macros-Record Macro: There click and appear a "little box" 
that meaning that almost all that you do from this time in LibreOffice 
is recording.


3) After step 2), select Menu-Insert-Image-Scan-Request. Until this you 
did record those steps to scan. Now click Stop Recording button from 
"little box"


4) Now appear a windows dialog where you can record the macro with those 
step you were recording: Select My Macros --> Standard --> New Module--> 
Named as Scan --> Save --> and click accept to overwrite the main option 
there.


5) Now Menu-Tools-Macros-Organize Macros-LibreOffice: Appear a Dialog 
Window where you can see the Macros Library: There select My 
Macro-Standar and find the macro called "Scan" that you save before.


6) Select Scan Module and then select at right : Assign button
7) Appear new Dialog Window: Here, keep "Standard toolbar", and select 
Button Add


8) There appear a new dialog window where you can look again : My Macros 
- Standard. Select "Scan" macro and click Add button


9) Now you can see the "main" item in the list at top. With the arrows 
you can move to top or down the "main" item (This main item represent 
your macro where you record the steps.


10) Select "main" item and select Modify Button. There select Rename and 
input Scan. Accept and now in the same place you can select an icon or 
let as is with the name "Scan"


11) Close the window dialog and the icon-Scan appear in the tool bar at 
top at left if you didn't move with arrow. If you move ... you can find 
along tool bar.


I hope this help,

Regards,

Jorge Rodríguez

What is the name of the dialog? Is ist called "MyDialogue"?. It should
appear at the left (catalog of objects - don't konwo if this is the
right name ..) and at the bottom (like the standard "Module1")

Declare the dialog first, out of a sub:
DIM oDialog0 AS OBJECT

Start the dialog:

SUB Dialog0Start
DialogLibraries.LoadLibrary("Standard")
oDialog0 = createUnoDialog(DialogLibraries.Standard.Dialog0)
oDialog0.Execute()
END SUB

Name of the dialog is "Dialog0"

End the dialog:

SUB Dialog0Ende
oDialog0.EndExecute()
END SUB

[libreoffice-users] Macro Dim Dialog and Control

[Johnny Rosenberg]

Hi!

I'm experimenting with extended data types in Calc Basic. I found some
information about it, which only gave me two different examples without any
link or anything to the rest of the ”new” data types available, so I'm
searching the best I can, so far coming up with a few ideas that all failed.

Without the feature enabled I Dim everything as Object, for instance:
Dim oSheet As Object
Dim oCell As Object
Dim Col As Long, Row As Long: Row = 35 : Col = 42
Dim oDlg As Object
Dim oCtl As Object
oSheet = ThisComponent.getSheets().getByName("MySheet")
oCell = oSheet.getCellByPosition(Col, Row)
oDlg = CreateUnoDialog(DialogLibraries.Standard.MyDialogue)
oCtl = Dlg.getControl("MyComboBox")

With the extended data types enabled, the first two lines would rather look
like this:
Dim oSheet As com.sun.star.sheet.XSpreadsheet
Dim oCell As com.sun.star.table.XCell

This works, but what about oDlg and oCtl? Are there special data types for
them too? The documentation I've found so far doesn't give any hints at
all. I tried this:
Dim Dlg As com.sun.star.awt.XDialog ' No error here,
' but next line throws an error:
oDlg = CreateUnoDialog(DialogLibraries.Standard.MyDialogue)
' Error: No access to object.
'Invalid usage of the object.
' Well, something like that, it's actually in Swedish.

I can still do Dim As Object and it works, but since I'm trying out the new
data types this isn't it…

Can anyone point me to some kind of reference manual for those new data
types?



Kind regards

Johnny Rosenberg

Haven't tested, but:
Tools > Customize > Toolbars > Add Command
there:
Category: All categories
Commands: Request

Hasn't any icon, so it would appear with text in the standard toolbar.

You could also add an icon to "Request". Choose the added "Request" and
change the icon. There would appear a dialog with icons.

Regards

Robert

[libreoffice-users] Create scan button?

[James Knott]

I occasionally scan documents into LibreOffice with a single sheet
scanner.  This means for each page I have to click on
Insert>Media>Scan>Request.  Is it possible to create an icon to run
those steps?

tnx jk
