------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Mar 27 16:00:07 +0000 2008 ------- I am using Odfpy 0.7 from http://opendocumentfellowship.com/projects/odfpy to build an .odt to be later edited using OpenOffice. I found that a created style which inherits another style is not properly rendered in OpenOffice 2.3.0. More specifically, the inheritance is ignored. If I create an automatic style though, the inheritance is respected and the result shows combined styles properly. I've created a sample application to generate a document which triggers this behaviour: -- START -- #!/usr/bin/env python from odf.opendocument import OpenDocumentText from odf.style import Style, TextProperties, ParagraphProperties from odf.text import P textdoc = OpenDocumentText() style_base = Style(name="MyStyle", family="paragraph") style_base.addElement(ParagraphProperties(textalign="center")) textdoc.styles.addElement(style_base) style_new = Style(name="MyStyleDerived", parentstylename=style_base, family="paragraph") style_new.addElement(TextProperties(fontweight="bold")) textdoc.styles.addElement(style_new) txt=P(stylename=style_new, text="My Text") textdoc.text.addElement(txt) textdoc.save("sample-styles.odt") -- END -- If I change this line: > textdoc.styles.addElement(style_new) to: > textdoc.automaticstyles.addElement(style_new) the generated document is rendered correctly. The expected rendering would be the text "My Text" centered and bold. Please note that KWord 1.6.3 renders this correctly. --- Also, a document in which I manually change the parent style using the Organizer tab > Linked with dropdown is properly rendered any time it is opened. I do not know what OpenOffice saves besides the style which makes it behave properly later. The XML style definition generated with Odfpy is the same with the one OpenOffice generates, but I do not know what else OpenOffice uses which triggers the correct rendering. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
