I was just tinkering with a component for observing user input in OO.o
through the accessibility API in Java. In doing so, I noticed that the
interface for accessible text seems to be implemented differently for
text documents (swriter) compared to presentations (simpress). In
particular, I cannot readily extract the textual contents of text
segments when entering text in presentation documents, but the
XAccessibleText.getText() method only reports what seems to be
coordinates for the entered text. In a XTExtDocument, however,
XAcessibleText.getText() works as intended so that the actual text is
returned.
I think this is because text in Impress/Draw is in frames, that are
anchored to the drawing layer.
Thus (in basic)
oFrames = ThisComponent.getTextFrames
oFrame = oFrames.getByName of getByIndex
gives you the frame object of which you can find the text.
Is this a known issue, or a feature I've missed?
AFAIK, now issue. I hope my explanation helps.
And BTW, questions of this kind can be asked best at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
KIndest regards,
Cor
