dbg_properties and dbg_methods for an object gives a fixed width

A workround is to reduce the font size of messages in Windows - a bit
drastic

In addition, the list of methods/properties produced is almost unreadable
as there is no formatting.

(I know of no other way to find a list of properties or methods)

Hi John,
The [email protected] mailing list is the best one for macro related questions.

As CPH mentioned, Macro questions are better suited to the dev mailling list. You can also try the oooforum...

Most people that inspect these properties parse them because they are very long strings. For example:

 Dim s$
 s$ = ThisComponent.Dbg_Properties
 MsgBox s$, 0, "Properties as they are"

 REM Remove extra CHR$(10)
 s$ = Join(Split(s$, CHR$(10)), "")
 MsgBox Join(Split(s$, ";"), CHR$(10))

This is just a sample of what I do personally in my own inspection routines. I have a macro called Inspect on my web site in my personal libraries. Many people like to use XRay, a commonly available routine written by a brilliant man and made available for free. I can not comment on it, however, because I wrote my own routines that I use.
