Is there sample file somewhere that causes OOo to bring up the filter dialog? I wanted to test NOTINCHOOSER but I'm unable to get this dialog to appear. There is no reproducable scenario, how you can trigger these dialog. And that's exactly the reason, why I wish to remove it from OOo. This dialog cames up in case type/filter detection was not successfully. And believe me: our detection can do many things. So in 90 % of all cases where this dialog cames up - the user dont have a real chance to find a suitable filter for loading the document ! You can try to load e.g. binary files .-) Often enough they are loaded as text files. Why ? Because it's not realy possible to write a detection for Text files ... if OOo supports encoded text files too. So we can differ between a bunch of bytes and an encoded text file. Or you can try e.g. to load a PDF document. We support PDF for reading only (we have an export filter but no one for import). I saw this dialog sometimes by tring to load PDF documents ... but no guarantee .-) Thanks, Allen - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards Andreas - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

About the documentation: I'm sure we had one, but I can't ask the developer who should have provided it as he is on vacation until end of next week. I'm back .-) And here my answer. The list of filter flags was documented inside the Developers Guide. Please have a look on the chapter 6.2.4 Integrating Import and Export Filters of http://api.openoffice.org/docs/DevelopersGuide/OfficeDev/OfficeDev.xhtml;. Note: The meaning of Default was changed slightly inbetween. Old meaning was: default filter for saving (in case no other filter was specified via API) ... could be set via Tools-Options-Load/Save New meaning is: newest and most actual filter for this document type as e.g. AutoSave it needs to guarantee saving of documents without loosing any information (as e.g. ALIEN formats can have) I can just sum up what comes into my mind, hope I don't miss one: Import - should be self explaining Export - should be self explaining Alien - no zip container based format Own - one of the OOo file formats Template- deprecated Preferred - preferred filter for a particular type Asynchron - deprecated, only HTML-filter isn't synchron 3rdPartyFilter - implemented as a UNO component TemplatePath- filter for a documenttemplate Default - default filter for this document type NotInFileDialog - should be self explaining NotInChooser- as above Ciao, Mathias Regards Andreas - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
