Re: [dev] Copy of formatted text from Header/Footer to Frame

[dev] CLI, TextTable and Cells - why can I not set property values ?
This is an extract of my code - I do not know, why the last code line always fails any ideas ? unoidl.com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet propSet = null; // We get a single cell which works without problems ... unoidl.com.sun.star.table.XCell cell = ((unoidl.com.sun.star.table.XCellRange)aXTextTable).getCellByPosition(1,1); // THis property value setting (based on tables) works also ((unoidl.com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet)aXTextTable).setPropertyValue( "BackColor", new uno.Any(0xAA)); // Now we try to work based on cells ... propSet = (unoidl.com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet) cell; // This always breaks and raises UnknownPropertyException // ... but single cells should have this property ... propSet.setPropertyValue( "HoriJustify", new uno.Any((ushort)unoidl.com.sun.star.table.CellHoriJustify.LEFT)); - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

By the way, that feature is not yet ready, neither is its spec. It was going into 2.4 because you guys needed it (so Niklas put it in partically). So, I don't think I'm obligated to finish the spec when I don't even think it's ready. So, what do you suggest we do then?

[dev] REMINDER: use specification templates for specifications
Hi there! I just stumbled over this Page ( http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Features/DataPilot_drill-down_on_data_field ) in the OO Wiki which someone seemed to be trying to use as a specification URL in EIS. We have an semi-automated processes around specifications and EIS Database Entries for OpenOffice.org ChildWorkspaces for creating Release Notes for new OpenOffice.org user releases and developer Milestones. This process will break if developers do not use the correct templates which is a defined process for creating new specifications. You can use: http://so-web.germany.sun.com/EIS2/servlet/guide.CheckSpecification to check if your specification document can be used for these processes. As templates either OpenDocument format file is available on http://specs.openoffice.org/collaterals/template/2.0/OpenOffice-org-Specification-Template.ott which is described on http://specs.openoffice.org/ or a wiki template is availabe at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Specification_Template Documentation about Specifications can be found here: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:Specification and on http://specs.openoffice.org The Wiki template seems to be not mentioned well on http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:Specification except from a link in the Articles in category "Specification" section maybe someone can add something about it in the text above.
