[libreoffice-users] Draw

2013-05-08 Thread Jonathan Han
Hello,

I checked on the website and tried to have this question solved, but could
not find an answer. Does LibreOffice Draw have line smoothing, like that in
Adobe Photoshop?

I look forward to hearing back.

Thanks.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: re. Italics and bold in BASE

2013-05-08 Thread Kieran Peckett
However, MS Access has formatting support - so why not LibO Base? If there
truly is no support for this, then this could be filed as an enhancement on
FDO (our bug tracker).

Re: [libreoffice-users] gettextfields

2013-05-08 Thread mcmurchy1917-libreoffice
Hi Vieri

The form you've created contains a set of controls of which one or more of 
them are of the "Text box" variety. 


You may also have other controls on the form such as a "Check Box", "Label" or 
"Push Button" these latter controls don't have the ability to hold text or 
edit text so don't have the .Text property. So for these controls the code 
x.Text will fail.


Try this

Sub EnumerateFields

oDoc = ThisComponent
oDrawPage = oDoc.DrawPage
oForm = oDrawPage.Forms.GetByIndex(0)
For i = 0 To oForm.getCount()-1
   x = oForm.getByIndex(i)
   if x.supportsService("com.sun.star.form.component.TextField") then
Print x.getName() & " : " & x.Text
End If
Next
  
End Sub

That's what I thought you meant!

If you have sent the same text to multiple editors and the only 
changes made to each copy are recorded changes, you can do this by 
opening one document and then using Edit | Changes > | Merge 
Documents... multiple times to merge each of the other 
documents.  You can then, as you desire, look at all the suggested 
changes together when deciding to accept or reject any of them.


But this works only if the documents differ only in recorded 
changes.  To make this work properly, you need to set the original 
document to record changes (Edit | Changes > | Record) and then to 
protect this setting using Edit | Changes > | Protect Records... and 
entering a password *before* distributing your original.  Without 
this password, the various editors will not be able to disable change 
recording, so all the edited documents will come back in a state 
where the above technique will work.


I trust this helps.

 When I copy text that contains recorded changes and them paste it 
into another document, the changes made to the original document are 
pasted. The original text is not copied.
 Some text as an example: The sly_red_  /silver/  fox jumped over 
the lazy brown dog. (_red_  indicates that this word has been 
deleted./silver/  indicates that this word has been added.)
 When I copy and paste this sentence in a LibreOffice text 
document, I get: "The sly silver fox jumped over the lazy brown dog." 
The things that I have added are copied and pasted. The things which I 
had deleted are not copied and pasted.

Indeed and this is not what I want, I want everything including the 
changes copied over.
The rationale is that I have lots of documents that have been edited by 
different people. I would prefer moving these all to one and then

the modified stuff.


It seems like this may be impossible which is unfortunate - time for a 
feature request perhaps.

   If you (1) highlight the area you wish to copy,
 then (2) copy it;
 then (3) place your marker on the area, at the exact location, you
wish this new data to go,
 then (4) the formatting should be transferred to the newly pasted
data.

   Well that works for me;

Yes you are.
You are one of my "readers" who helped me get my edits correct.

[libreoffice-users] Re: re. Italics and bold in BASE

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Only in Forms and Reports.  Not in the data (Tables) or in the Queries.

I haven't used Base yet and don't really know so this is just guessing from my 
impression of what goes on ... 
I think you are meant to use Writer or Calc to "connect to" or "link to" the 
Queries in Base.  Then you use fields in much the way you would "mail merge".  
That means you can apply normal formatting to the fields or the text and stuff 
around that in the rest of the Writer or Calc document.  

Does this link describe how to do that?
http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=75&t=18511


There was this link on the main LibreOffice website
http://www.libreoffice.org/features/base/


I hope to start reading this quick guide or handbook that is in the process of 
being translated from the original that was written in German 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Base_Handbook
The chapter "Linking to Databases" is the other way around.  It's about using 
external tables in MySql or PostgreSQL rather than having the tables in the 
internal back-end.  

I get confused around then but i think Base then 'just' has the queries and the 
relationships between the tables.  Then Base feeds into Forms and Reports 
created in Writer.  So Base is a bit like a bridge?

Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] Italics and bold in BASE

Hi!

Le 08/05/2013 18:31, acanela a écrit :


I´m a Libreoffice user and I´d like to use italics and bold in Base. Is it
possible? It would be so important to me.



Where do you want to use italics or bold?

There are two areas for data management: the data themselves and the 
presentation of data. For ease of development, both are *always* kept 
apart (if not, they should be). As Base is a... well... *data*base, 
there's no need for any presentation setting there.


The data presentation is the job of a form (done using Writer), a 
mailing (using Writer as well) or a report (in Base). As for the 
reports, and if I'm not mistaken, the report tool-s in Base allow for 
presentation settings.


But perhaps I didn't understand your concerns well. Please elaborate.

 I use the Styles and Formatting window (F11 opens it) to select 
italics, bold, bold italics, and a variety of font sizes in my database

 I now see what the problem is: you need to change your design of 
the report. For any heading that you do not want to be repeated, you 
have to group by that heading. How you do this depends upon whether you 
created the report using Design View or the Report Wizard. If the 
latter, you will have to recreate the report. If you used Design View, 
right click the report and select Edit. Then used the Report Builder to 
select TG as the field you want to Group By. Let me know which you used, 
and I will tell you what you need to do.

   Jabberwocky
 by Lewis Carroll

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
  The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
  The frumious Bandersnatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand;
  Long time the manxome foe he sought —
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
  And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
  The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
  And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
  The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
  He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
  Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
  He chortled in his joy.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.

Hi :)
Here is Nabble.  You can either click on the links in this email or navigate
from the LibreOffice "Get Help" page and get to your thread reasonably
easily that way.  

Once here start typing a reply and notice the strange buttons at the top of
the message window.  Click on "More" there to get to the "Upload a file"
option at the top of that list.  There is another "More" button somewhere in
Nable but just don't let it throw you!  When you get to the right one it's a
lot like uploading an attachment to a normal email.

 This mailing list strips all attachments for security reasons. You 
will have to upload your database somewhere on the Web and then report 
where you put it. You might want to look at Nabble, the one that is the 
mailing list interface for libreoffice. It permits people people to 
upload files to it instead of attaching them to an email sent to this 
mailing list.
 It appears that you have a problem in the design of your report. 
Possibly what you want done has to be done in a different way.

When I have a few minutes, I will see if I have one.

Any particular style in mind?  Any dialect?

[libreoffice-users] Database Help: reiterating report header

2013-05-08 Thread Sean O'Connell
Hello,

I'm having trouble with my database report: i can't seem to only have one
header (field) on each page without repetition on every record (there are
like 10 headers(fields) in one page).

For clarification and your help, please see the attachment of my database.
It's in the location:
Database- MusicStudents
Reports- AverageCostLesson

Thank you,

Sean

Yes - it got through both times, don't worry (James wouldn't have replied
if he hadn't received it - he probably thought that you wouldn't fall for

[Solved] Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Arabesque font that is really English

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Thanks :D  I already have a true Arabic font that is actually the kinda default 
one in some country, i think either Saudi or the USA but possibly India.  I'm 
never completely sure where anyone is.  

However it's going to be great having different fonts to use in posters and 
such.  

I've made quite a nice poster this time.  Next time it's going to be easier to 
be better.  

Thanks all!!
Regards from
Tom :)

That is a lot different than Arabic fonts.

Well, I miss understood you email
I just sent you a link to a zip file of all of true Arabic fonts I had - 
182 files.


Well if you want swirls and such, it sounds like a "brush" or 
"calligraphy" style.

RE: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

2013-05-08 Thread V Stuart Foote

Top post, bottom post, interspersed --- it is all pretty much the same in the 
end for delivering and exchanging information. 

But what REALLY makes a difference in effort for recipients and for following 
the thread is simply trimming the response--by hand, or allowing your favorite 
news reader or email client to do it.

The need is especially notable if you review threads on Nabble archive--this 
thread for example: 
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Seeking-for-list-moderators-tp4053736.html

many (all?) of us read several posts so you end up with a bunch of nearly
meaningless opening lines; why read further? with bottom-posting, you see
right away what the issue was, which motivates further reading.

I know this is a perennial disagreement; perhaps top-posters might at least
consider pruning the thread so it's easier to know what they are talking

Gosh @anne-ology,

Formatting of your posts are always sooo far out there, i.e. off standards, I 
figured to give you a nod with the top posted and right justified +1, and a 
centered +2--although if I'd been thinking sharply enough I'd have made it a 
+2¢--because I love the car window analogy.

Many non-English fonts keep the Latin letters for the initialglyphs.  
What you are looking for is a font that does not have any Latin glyphs?

Not quite.  It has to be readable as English

Just with a style that looks vaguely Arabic or reminiscent of Arabic swirls.  

Actually Stuart's idea inspired me so i jumped on a Windows machine and got

Have a look at Rage Italic ( Ron Zwingelberg, ttf from Microsoft), or Gabriola

[libreoffice-users] POST data to URL

2013-05-08 Thread Vieri
Hi,

I'm looking for a way to post text data I get from a text field within a writer 
odt document.

My macro looks like this:


  sURL = "https://myserver/webservice/index.php";
  sBody = "param1=" & stextfield1


  oInput = Post(sURL, sBody)



Function Post(sURL As String, sBody As String) As Variant
  oUCB = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.ucb.UniversalContentBroker")
  oId = oUCB.createContentIdentifier(sURL)
  oContent = oUCB.queryContent(oId)
  
  oDataSink = CreateUnoListener("XDataSink_", _
  "com.sun.star.io.XActiveDataSink")
  
  oCommandEnv = CreateUnoListener("XCommandEnv_", _
  "com.sun.star.ucb.XCommandEnvironment")
  
  oBodyStream = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.io.Pipe")
  oTextOutput = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.io.TextOutputStream")
  oTextOutput.setOutputStream(oBodyStream)
  oTextOutput.writeString(sBody)
  oTextOUtput.closeOutput()
  
  oPostArgs = CreateUnoStruct("com.sun.star.ucb.PostCommandArgument2")
  oPostArgs.Source = oBodyStream
  oPostArgs.Sink = oDataSink
  
  aCommand = CreateUnoStruct("com.sun.star.ucb.Command")
  aCommand.Name = "post"
  aCommand.Argument = oPostArgs
  
  oRet = oContent.execute(aCommand, -1, oCommandEnv)
  
  oInput = oDataSink.getInputStream()
  Post = oInput
End Function
 
 
 
Dim oStream As Variant
Function XDataSink_setInputStream(oLocStream As Variant)
  oStream = oLocStream
End Function
Function XDataSink_getInputStream() As Variant
  XDataSink_getInputStream = oStream
End Function
 
 
Function XCommandEnv_getInteractionHandler()' As Variant
  XCommandEnv_getInteractionHandler = CreateUnoListener(_
  "XInteractionHandle_", "com.sun.star.task.XInteractionHandler")
End Function
Function XCommandEnv_getProgressHandler()' As Variant
  XCommandEnv_getProgressHandler = CreateUnoListener(_
  "XProgressHandle_", "com.sun.star.ucb.XProgressHandler")
End Function
 
 
Function XInteractionHandle_handle(oRequest)
End Function
 
Function XProgressHandle_push(nStatus)
End Function
Function XProgressHandle_update(nStatus)
End Function
Function XProgressHandle_pop()
End Function


However, my PHP script doesn't receive the 'param1' variable despite the fact 
that it does receive a POST request.

What am I doing wrong?
Are there other methods to do this?

Thanks,

Vieri

Re: [libreoffice-users] gettextfields

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
You might find it well worth buying the 3rd party guide produced by Andrew 
Pitonyak.  This link helps get you there
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Other_Documentation_and_Resources#Programmers

Andrew works hard on this list and in the Docs Team to help people with 
bits&bobs of code as do other people on this list but the book brings it all 
together rather well.  It might be a good investment.  I'm not sure how badly 
it is affected by alleged changes in the newer version of LO Basic being used 
by 4.0.0 and beyond but i suspect the book gives such a good overview that 
changes in the details are easy to figure out.  

Regards from 
Tom )

Just checking my first impressions are right.  So, most of the blocked

main categories
1.  Spam
2.  Junk
3.  Legitimate post (i hesitate to use the term "serious" given the
nature of many legitimate posts to this list)

For 1 & 2 we do nothing and just let the message get dealt with
automatically.  It's only the 3rd case that we unblock them.

This looks a lot more trivial than i was expecting.


exactly - it's fairly easy. ;-)

Re: [libreoffice-users] gettextfields

2013-05-08 Thread Fernand Vanrie

Vieri ,

pleasqe find some working code below

hope it helps:

so every field has a "Placeholder" property  who correspondents with the 
data who commes here from a beamer


Dim aTextFields as Object
Dim i as integer
Dim CurElement as Object
'xray.xray oDocument
aTextfields = oDocument.getTextfields.CreateEnumeration
While aTextFields.hasmoreElements'
CurElement = aTextField.NextElement

If 
CurElement.PropertySetInfo.hasPropertybyName("PlaceHolder")Then

If (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "Lezers") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sLezers)
ElseIf (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "Mag") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sNaam)
ElseIf (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "Half") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sHalf)
Elseif (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "Voll") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sVoll)
Elseif (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "pr1") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sPr1)
Elseif (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "prH") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sPrH)
Elseif (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "prV") Then
CurElement.getAnchor.setString(sPrV)
Elseif (CurElement.PlaceHolder = "advprijs1") Then

Thanks!

Making progress... finally.

Your code actually retrieved the text within my first "text box" (which is at 
least something!) but then it fails with the error:

LibreOffice 4.0.2.2
BASIC runtime error.
'423'
Text

it points to line:
  Print x.getName() & " : " & x.Text

It may be choking on a "formatted field" within the document.

Just out of curiosity, how did you know that you had to use ThisComponent.DrawPage.Forms? 
As a novice, I find the documentation to be quite confusing and a supposedly 
"simple" task such as getting text field values seems to be quite difficult. I 
mean, I found examples on the net and they all start with something like:

   vEnum = ThisComponent.getTextFields().createEnumeration()
   If Not IsNull(vEnum) Then
 Do While vEnum.hasMoreElements()
   vVal = vEnum.nextElement()

but then I either don't know how to continue or the examples I found on the net 
don't work (maybe outdated OO or LO versions).

BTW, is there an IDE that can auto-complete Basic code (eg. vVal.??? as in the 
example above).

Thanks,

Vieri

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
You 2 have kinda "missed the boat" on that one.  Now you would need to convince 
all handset and mobile device makers, plus all office workers everywhere to 
revert back to a system that almost no-one feels comfortable with.  Even 
in-line posts often freak people out.  If you want to make that your mission 
before accepting people into LibreOffice then you have a big challenge ahead of 
you.  Alternatively we could just make these lists unable to cope with any new 
people and make new people feel very unwelcome.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] gettextfields

2013-05-08 Thread mcmurchy1917-libreoffice
I've created two "Text Boxes" in a form in a writer document.

I can iterate over them like this grabbing the text as I go 

Sub EnumerateFields

oDoc = ThisComponent
oDrawPage = oDoc.DrawPage
oForm = oDrawPage.Forms.GetByIndex(0)
For i = 0 To oForm.getCount()-1
   x = oForm.getByIndex(i)
   Print x.getName() & " : " & x.Text
Next
  
End Sub


Does this help in anyway?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I still haven't read the Faq yet.  Hopefully i might get started on all this 
over the weekend.  


Just checking my first impressions are right.  So, most of the blocked messages 
are from people that are not subscribed?  Those fall into 3 main categories
1.  Spam

2.  Junk
3.  Legitimate post (i hesitate to use the term "serious" given the nature of 
many legitimate posts to this list)

For 1 & 2 we do nothing and just let the message get dealt with automatically.  
It's only the  3rd case that  we unblock them.  


This looks a lot more trivial than i was expecting.  The only issues might be 
the volume of traffic, how we co-ordinate on the "moderators" mailing list and 
how complex the unblocking process is.  

Regards from 

Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Moderation in this case means unblocking messages that have been automatically 
blocked.  It's quite the opposite of the normal meaning i think.  Quite a lot 
of people are needed.  

So far the only ones i have seen were blocked due to the person not subscribing 
to the list before posting.  It should be fairly easy to 
1.  copy&paste a standard message back to them to ask them to subscribe
2.  Unblock the message so that it does get to the list.  
3.  Move on to next message.  

It may help to be intelligent enough and have good enough understanding of 
English in order to spot and maybe solve problems but so far we haven't seen 
any of that.  Well, except one post was in non-English.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Trying to attach the file again but it seems that the mailing list strips it 
out.

If QA is included in the call for moderators, fantastic, if not, I'd
open it up as well :) I will maintain admin rights and get familiar with

the QA list is outside my scope - I don't even have administrative 
access here, so it was not included in the call for moderators. Of 
course, if you can configure the list, feel free to start such a call. :-)

As a general info:
moderators only receive emails from people who are not subscribed to the
list. If you are subscribed, your message goes right to the list without
being shown to a moderator.
(which I think, is a good thing - I don't want to censor anyones posts).

But I agree, top posting is an annoying thing. ;)
