Hi,
I need to programmatically retrieve the state of the feature "Format>
AutoCorrect> While Typing" in Writer.
I've tried two ways but none works properly :
1/ Reading the corresponding property in the Writer.xcu configuration
file. But this value don't seem to be updated when application is
running, only when the application is shutting down.
That's intended; you should see the xcu files as an implementation
detail that shouldn't be accessed at runtime.
2/ I can read the state of the menu's entry :
myFrame.LayoutManager.getElement("private:resource/menubar/menubar").XMenuBar.getPopupMenu(itemId1).(...).isItemChecked(itemId2)
But this value is really updated only if the menu "AutoCorrect" is
displayed one more time after the value has changed.
This isn't a good idea.
Is someone known another way to retrieve this value ?
You could register a StatusListener for ".uno:OnlineAutoFormat" (IIRC).
But this means that you have to do that at every frame.
It should be possible to register a ConfigurationUpdateListener for the
corresponding key in the xcu file, but it's possible that it doesn't
work either because Writer caches this setting internally. That would be
a bug, but I assume that this doesn't make it better. I'm afraid you
have to find that out.
Regards,
Mathias
