Hi everybody,

I have some questions about the new document generation mechanism in
Topcased 2.3.0.
First of all, I downloaded and followed with success the document generation
tutorial. Now, I have some questions:

1. I succeeded in generating a .docx (word) but not an odt (actually, I got
the file but it's empty). In both cases I used a .docx template done with MS
Word and the macros, as in the tutorial example. Question: is the .odt
generation already implemented?

2. I noticed that, after the importation of the template, the file having
the extension .docx.gendoc may be modified in the Topcased editor, not only
by completing the missing fields as described in the tutorial, but also
adding new entries that weren't in the original template (e.g a new chapter,
a new Model Data Source etc, in other words, at a first glance, more or less
the same work macros do when working in Word on a template). This could be
interesting as it would be quicker than modifiyng within Word and the
re-importing.
If I try to do that, however, the generated document does not incorporate
the changes, i.e. its layout and its entries are still those in the original
.docx template.
Here, the question is: what is exactly the role of the .docx template and
what is the role of the .docx.gendoc? What changes to the .docx.gendoc are
allowed once the template has been imported?

Thanks a lot,
Francesco
