Carl ,
With the joined code you can make the wanted "NewWritterTemplate.ott"
working
Hope it helps
Fernand
Sub set_new_writerTemplate()
GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.loadLibrary("myTools")
sNode =
"org.openoffice.Setup/Office/Factories/com.sun.star.text.TextDocument"
sProperty = "ooSetupFactoryTemplateFile"
'*****OPGELET***** the file must been in the Template directory !
'moet in een TEMPLATE-directorie staan, anders werkt het NIET*****
sValue = "file:///t:/template/tools/New_WriterTemplate.ott"
setOOoSetupValue(sNode, sProperty, sValue)
End Sub
Function setOOoSetupValue(sNodePath$, sProperty$, sValue$) as boolean
on error goto exitErr
Dim bReturn as Boolean, xconfig, xAccess
dim aArgs(0) as Object
dim aPropValue as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
xconfig =
createunoservice("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationProvider")
aPropValue.Name = "nodepath"
aPropValue.Value = sNodePath '"org.openoffice.Office.Linguistic"
aArgs(0) = aPropValue
xAccess =
xconfig.createinstanceWithArguments("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationUpdateAccess",aArgs())
xAccess.setPropertyValue(sProperty, sValue)
xAccess.commitchanges
bReturn = True
exitErr:
setOOoSetupValue = bReturn
End Function
Function getOOoSetupValue(sNodePath$,sProperty$)
Dim aConfigProvider, oNode, args(0) As new
com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
aConfigProvider =
createUnoService("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationProvider")
args(0).Name = "nodepath"
args(0).Value = sNodePath
oNode =
aConfigProvider.createInstanceWithArguments("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationAccess",
args())
getOOoSetupValue = oNode.getbyname(sProperty)
End Function
As far as I understand I should be able to set the default font and
font size in the main.xcd file
The only problem is that Im not sure what the format should be... :(
I tried the template way. I created a template and copied it to every
machine via a script. It does not seem to get used though. I think I
need to tell every installation that it should use this file as the
default template. How would this be done? Also in the main.xcd file?

Hi :)
There is a folder called "templates" in the user-profile
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile
but there seem to be other weird places too and i am not sure which
is used and whether any of them are not used. Looking in
Tools - Options - Paths
You can see that the templates path is has a few different
alternatives rather than just one but did not seem to include the
path to the folder in the user-profile!
Aaaargh!! Is it easy enough to add an extra path?
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes all these users are using different flavours of Windows
Can you push a template out over your network? I am not sure of the
exact location of the template folder, but should be similar for all
the Windows machines (I use Linux). I would look for LO in the
Program folder and navigate to the template folder. You could have a
problem with 32 and 64 bit locations.

Hi,
I need to change the default margins and font in Libreoffice
Writer and Calc for a group of about 100 users.
How can I do this without having to go and do it manually on every
PC?

Where is the user data stored? If on a server, create a new default
template and update the appropriate file in each user folder (or
alternately change the default template location). If locally, I do
not have a good idea.
Also, what OS's are involved, I assume Windows.
