Hi guys, not a pure dev question, but way to deep for any manual.
I have a problem with the document templates and the hierarchy they use. I just read the 0210WG-WorkingWithTemplatesInWriter.pdf (http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors/), but nothing is said about document template hierarchies (and I could not find any other documentation on that subject). In some German wiki (http://www.ooowiki.de/DokumentVorlagen) I read a small paragraph (way at the bottom), where it was stated, that every template knows its "predecessor" (but I could not find anything in the XML files of the child-template .ott). This way it shall be possible to create a template hierarchy, where you can propagate changes from a "master-template" down to child templates (and even multiple-levels shall be possible). On Ubuntu 6.06.01 with OO.o 2.0.2 as well as Windows XP and OO.o 2.1 I could not get changes to be propagated. I saved the templates with "Edit - Templates - Save" and made changes via "Edit - Templates - Organize... - Edit". Is this just a misunderstanding of the forum writer or am I doing something wrong? I tried creating the child-template in two variations: First via editing the master-/parent-template and saving that as child-template. Second via making changes to a parent document and then creating the child-template from that document. I have no clue. Any help is appreciated Best regards, Thomas -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Thomas Kashofer Software-development, Teamlead InnoviData GmbH Phone +49 711 88770-169 Lilienthalstraße 2/1 Fax +49 711 88770-299 70825 Korntal/Stuttgart Cell +49 175 5752469 http://www.innovidata.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
