Hi developers,
I'm Gerhard from www.00easytracker.org. I want to use OpenOffice as core for a new requirements engeneering software. (You'll find a dessign scetch of the project here: http://www.ooeasytracker.org/tikiwiki/tiki-read_article.php?articleId=7) Therfore I would like to know how to add formatID to OpenOffice text. This formatID shall be the means to link information snippets. So if the user finds a piece of information in a OpenOffice document, he can attach an unique ID to this section and with this ID he can link it to another piece of information within the same or another document. Here the detailed requirements: 1) I want to be able to select a piece of text within OpenOfficeWriter and attach an invisible formatID to it. 2) This formatID shall not show its self in OpenOfficeWriter but be present in the documents ODF file. 3) It shall be possible to assign different formatID's to overlapping text sections. 4) It shall be possible to assign a formatID to a subsection of text that has already a formatID 5) It shall be possible to search for text that has this formatID 6) The formatID shall be a alphanumeric string with white spaces 7) The new function does not show its self to the user in OpenOffice but it will be called by the java application that embeddes the OpenOffice document 8) I want to code in Java, if possible and I want to use the UNO bridge 9) The new feature shall be a plugin to OpenOffice and it shall not be necessary to build a new OpenOffice every time a new version gets released I could use the hyperlink format as a workarround. I would only use the Name field and leave the URL field empty. But this solution does not fullfill requirement 4,5 and 5. There are workarrounds for that too, which might work fine with short documents, but probbably not with long ones. Is there anybody arround who is able and willing to help? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
