[dev] drawing with Java2D inside Openoffice
Hello, I began an internship for my university. I have to start a new project from scratch. My Project is about "drawing rdf-document as easy understandable graphs". : RDF (Ressorce Description Framework) is a standard for representing metadata (for example in XML format). People from university wants me to do draw the graphs inside openoffice. (I don't know why they choose openoffice for it, thought...). I began to read the Developer Guide, but after searching a lot, I'm really not sure. Can I really draw _with_java_ inside of openoffice. So, My questions are : * Is it possible to draw with java inside openoffice ? (If yes, can you give me an hint, how to do it? Where should I begin too look at ?) * Is it possible easily ? (Where should I begin to look? Are there some demos, or some small applications demonstrating how I can do that?) * What should I use to draw, swing, swt, awt? I would like to use jgraph later in my project. I hope I can got some help here. Thank you in advance!

I'd like to concretize "draw with java inside openoffice": Is it possible to write a Java component, that is responsible for painting (and getting events for) some area of a document. E.g. a (hypothetical) component that displays a geometric construction (almost like an image) but is able to respond to user input to make the construction interactive? Therefore, my (and possibly Daniel's) question is not about creating OpenDocument content by means of some API calls, but about a component that plugs into the document and takes responsibility for some part thereof. Best regards Bernhard Yes, that is exactely my problem :). Can someone help us ? Regards Daniel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[dev] inserting graphicObject under a XTextViewCursor
Hello,
Im trying to insert an image (a Gif image) under the cursor (the visual
one, which the user uses for editing) inside the Writer of
OpenOffice.org, but it seems to not work.
Instead, the image is always pasted at the top of the Frame of
OpenWriter. And, despite alle my investigation how to change it, I
could archive to paste the image under the cursor .
Even if I try to change the values inside of :
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("HoriOrientPosition",1000);
to
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("HoriOrientPosition",5000);
it also changes nothing. I don't know how to solve it. What am I doing
wrong here ?
Tank you a lot in advance !
Regards,

Here my code :
//Creating GraphicObject
Object oGraphic =
xMultiServiceFactory.createInstance("com.sun.star.text.GraphicObject");
//getting actual Cursor
XModel xModel = (XModel) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XModel.class,
xComponent);
XController xController = xModel.getCurrentController();
XTextViewCursorSupplier xViewCursorSupplier =
(XTextViewCursorSupplier) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
XTextViewCursorSupplier.class, xController);
XTextViewCursor xTextViewCursor =
xViewCursorSupplier.getViewCursor();
// Getting the text
com.sun.star.text.XText xText = xTextDocument.getText();
// Querying for the interface XTextContent on the GraphicObject
com.sun.star.text.XTextContent xTextContent =
(com.sun.star.text.XTextContent) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.text.XTextContent.class, oGraphic);
// Inserting the content
xText.insertTextContent(xTextViewCursor, xTextContent, true);
// Querying for the interface XPropertySet on GraphicObject
com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet xPropSet =
(com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet.class,
oGraphic);
java.io.File sourceFile = new java.io.File("src/data/picture.gif");
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("AnchorType",
com.sun.star.text.TextContentAnchorType.AT_PARAGRAPH);
// Setting the graphic url
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("GraphicURL", sUrl.toString());
System.out.println("(x,y): (" +
xTextViewCursor.getPosition().X + "," + xTextViewCursor.getPosition().Y
+ ")");
// Setting the horizontal position
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("HoriOrientPosition", new
Integer(xTextViewCursor.getPosition().X));
// Setting the vertical position
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("VertOrientPosition", new
Integer(xTextViewCursor.getPosition().Y));
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("Width", new
Integer(8000));xPropSet.setPropertyValue("Height", new Integer(4000));

Re: [dev] inserting graphicObject under a XTextViewCursor
Hello,
First thank you Matt for your fast answer!
I changed :
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("AnchorType",
com.sun.star.text.TextContentAnchorType.AT_PARAGRAPH);
to
xPropSet.setPropertyValue("AnchorType",
com.sun.star.text.TextContentAnchorType.AS_CHARACTER);
It works much better now.
But then I insert an image now, it will be inserted at the beginning of
the curently edited line.
It looks as if the "X Coordinates" are ignored.
I would like it to be inserted exactely at the point, where the user has
got is cursor... thats much more natural.

Just a thought: What is the Anchor for the oGraphic set to? To achieve
your desire, you probably need to set it to "as Character" or "to
Character".

[dev] Calling function from ContextMenu
Hello ,
* I'm using Java, to access openOffice 2 UNO component. I'm trying to
add items to the contextMenu inside OpenOffice - I used the example from
sdk for that.
*Then the user choses the Item "Search Word" from the contextMenu, I
want my own function to be called. The problem is : I don't know how to
do that.
As I understand it, I have to use
xMenuEntry.setPropertyValue("CommandURL", String). But which String to
pass? Do I have to make an UNO component to call my own function from
OpenOffice?
Thanks in advance ,
Daniel
*this is the example I took from sdk. It calls the help navigator. How
to modify it, to call my own function, e.g. void foo() ?

[dev] inserting text in current Frame
Hello,
I'm developping a java application, and I extended it (or at least tried
to extend it) so that it can interpolate with openoffice.
I can now insert text, image, diagrams and links inside openoffice, all
that from my external java-programm. Thats really nice:)
The strange thing is that it does that only on the Writer-frame that I
opened first.
I would like to also be able to insert things in a new opened docuemnt.
And I would like to allow the user to edit several document with
OpenOffice.org, and only operate (i.e. : insert Tex, images, diagramms
or links) on the the frame, that is currently on top.
so... What I am doing wrong ? Why can I only use the first opened frame
? (i.e.: How to get the frame that is currently "in use"?)
I pasted the code in the Email. Thanks a lot for the answer in advance.
Regards
Daniel
__Code__
//here is the code I used to open the first new writer frame :
..
try {
xComponent =
xCompLoader.loadComponentFromURL("private:factory/swriter",
"_blank", 0, new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue[0]);
xTextDocument = (XTextDocument) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(

} catch (com.sun.star.uno.Exception e) {
System.out.println("uno Error!");
e.printStackTrace();

Re: [dev] Saving the state of a component with a document
Hello, Sorry, I don't know the answer. What I wanted to say : I have a similar Problem. I want to tag some words (I'm Tagging Named Entities, e.g. person name, states, time...), and store these information in the XML stucture. What would fit best for me would be alternative 1. So, I'm also interested on opinions/hints about it. Thanks Daniel Hi all, I am developing a UNO component which needs to store its state, such as the values of input fields, radio boxes, list boxes etc. into a current document so that it can be saved with that file, and carried with that file. My question is, is there an elegant way of doing it? What I have in mind are: 1) Put the values into some type of a XML structure, and inject it into the zipped file structure (if that's even possible). 2) Put them as a macro basic comment (dunno if this is also possible) 3) Put them into the document itself as a content. 3 is the easiest, but I prefer not to alter the content of a current document. 2 may be better, but then the next time the user opens the document, s/he will get that macro security dialog (undesired effect). 1 is perfect, but I don't even know if it's possible. Has anybody done anything like this? Any opinions?

Re: [dev] inserting text in current Frame
Hi Stephan,
First thanks - your solution worked beautifully! Danke!
Everytime I want to insert text into StarOffice writer, I search now for
the currently active StarOffice component. With it, I can just insert
text, images, graphics into the right Frame.
I have now a problem, that is very similar to the this one.
I want to add now an item to the StarOffice context menu. I also, of
course, want this context menu to be available from all openoffice
windows/frame the user opened.
But I were not able to do it. You see, then inserting text, it was
easier, because I search for the currently active StarOffice component
before inserting text.
I created a ContextMenuInterceptorClass, that registers once, then
starting openoffice, to the current frame.
But then, it doesn't work then I opens a new frame, because I is
registered, from the beginning on, at the first active StarOffice component.
So ... Either
1)I register the ContextMenuInterceptor so that his
notifyContextMenuExecute method will be called from what either frame a
contextMenuEvent came from (Is that possible?), or
2) I have to register a new ContextMenuInterceptor each time I open a
new Document, or change the current edited document.
Can you perhaps give me an hint ?
Here, this is how I'm doing to register the Context Menu
/***
* Registration of the context menu interceptor by using the current
controller.
* This is done once, then openOffice
starts.
***/
XModel xModel = (XModel) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XModel.class,
xComponent);
com.sun.star.frame.XFrame xFrame =
xModel.getCurrentController().getFrame();
XController xController = xModel.getCurrentController();
//intercepts the XContextMenu, to add items in it
com.sun.star.ui.XContextMenuInterception xContextMenuInterception =
(com.sun.star.ui.XContextMenuInterception)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.ui.XContextMenuInterception.class, xController);
ContextMenuInterceptor aContextMenuInterceptor = new
ContextMenuInterceptor();
com.sun.star.ui.XContextMenuInterceptor xContextMenuInterceptor =
(com.sun.star.ui.XContextMenuInterceptor)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.ui.XContextMenuInterceptor.class, aContextMenuInterceptor);
xContextMenuInterception.registerContextMenuInterceptor(xContextMenuInterceptor);
and here, a part of my ContextMenuInterceptor class, which adds items to
a contextMenu.
/
* ContextMenuInterceptor, adds item to the openOffice contextMenu
***/
public class ContextMenuInterceptor implements XContextMenuInterceptor {
public ContextMenuInterceptorAction notifyContextMenuExecute(
com.sun.star.ui.ContextMenuExecuteEvent aEvent) throws
RuntimeException {
...
com.sun.star.container.XIndexContainer xContextMenu =
aEvent.ActionTriggerContainer;
com.sun.star.lang.XMultiServiceFactory xMenuElementFactory =
(com.sun.star.lang.XMultiServiceFactory)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.lang.XMultiServiceFactory.class, xContextMenu);
if (xMenuElementFactory != null) {
// create root menu entry and sub menu
com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet xRootMenuEntry =
(XPropertySet) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet.class,
xMenuElementFactory.createInstance("com.sun.star.ui.ActionTrigger"));

You can query the XDesktop interface from an instance of the service
"com.sun.star.frame.Desktop", which you can create at the
MultiServiceFactory of the office.
The interface XDesktop has a method "getCurrentComponent()" which should
return the currently active StarOffice component.

[dev] how to catch events everytime a character is entered into the Wordprocessor?
Hello, I want to catch events from openoffice everytime someone enters a character in the Worprocessor text area, or everytime someone selects an element from the context menu (The one obtained then doing right-mouse click on the edited document) I think that I have to get the "XMenu" and the "XTextComponent" from some service from the Wordprocessor to register my XMenuListener and my XTextListener. I found no such services. My Question is: how to do to capture events from the wordprocessor everytime a user enters a carachter into the wordprocessor? I didn't found the answer, nether by googling for it, nor by looking into the examples from the Developer Guide, nor by reading hald of the Developer Guide (Btw, its really to long!)

Re: [dev] Can I listen for changes of the view cursor?
Hello OpenOffice Maillinglist.
I'm forwarding my email contact with Matthias in the hope that someone
can help us.
There also exists the com.sun.star.awt.XMouseListener, which not only
listens to mouseclicks events, but also to events like mouseEntered,
mouseExited, mousePressed, mouseReleased
But here I have a problem too: where must I register the
XMouseHandler?/XMouseClickHandler? I tried to register it to the frame
of the TextDocument, but that didn't do the Trick.
currenActiveOfficeComponent = newDocComponent("swriter");
XTextDocument xTextDocument = (XTextDocument) UnoRuntime
.queryInterface(XTextDocument.class,
currenActiveOfficeComponent);
XFrame textDocumentFrame=
xTextDocument.getCurrentController().getFrame();
XWindow textFrameWindow = textDocumentFrame.getComponentWindow()
testFrameWindow.addFrameActionListener(new MyMouseListener());
and this one doesn't work either:
textDocumentFrame.addFrameActionListener(new MyFrameListener());
MyMouseListener and MyFrameListener only implements the method from
the interface by adding System.out.println("some string") into each
method.
Sorry, no one has replied yet and I haven't found a solution myself. I
guess I will use an XMouseClickHandler. That doesn't tell me when the
user moved the cursor with the keyboard but it's better than nothing.
I have a problem similar to your problem. Did you find out
meanwhile how to get informed whenever the user moved the view cursor?
I'm trying myself to declare listener and register them, but until
now, nothing works.
Regards,
Daniel

I'd like to know if there's a way to get informed whenever the user
has moved the view cursor. I've looked at the IDL and the dev guide
but I can't seem to find a function/interface for this.

Re: [dev] Re: Can I listen for changes of the view cursor?
Hello, I think adding the SelectionChangeListener ist done as follow: This is how you got you XTextViewCursor: XTextViewCursorSupplier xViewCursorSupplier = (XTextViewCursorSupplier) UnoRuntime .queryInterface(XTextViewCursorSupplier.class, currentDesktopController); It is the case that the xViewCursorSupplier supports the Service "TextDocumentView", which include the service "OfficeDocumentView". OfficeDocumentView exports the interface "XSelectionSupplier". (Cf to the idl documentation). XSelection is the interface we need, since it defines the method addSelectionChangeListener() Thus, querying for XSelectionSupplier is done as follow: XSelectionSupplier xSelectionSupplier = (XSelectionSupplier) UnoRuntime .queryInterface(XSelectionSupplier.class, xViewCursorSupplier); Eventually add to the retrieved XSelectionSupplier your own SelectionChangeListener: xSelectionSupplier.addSelectionChangeListener(new MySelectionChangeListener()); (MySelectionChangeListener is a class that implements XSelectionChangeListener). I hope I made no mistakes. Regards, Daniel p.s.: On Staroffice 8, an event is catched then I press the keys "up arrow" or the "down arrow", but *not* then I press the "left" or the "right arrow". This is a bug, isn't it ?

Re: [dev] XTextRange Diff
Hello,
I remember that I had once a similar problem. I solved it by creating a
XTextRange ranging from "start" to "end" and then by getting the size of
the text of that XTextRange.
Here some pseudo code (I cannot post real code since I have no Java
environment here)
//Creates the XTextRange ranging from start to end
xtextRange.goto(START)
xtextRange.goto(END)
//Returns the size of the XTextRange in number of characters:
xtextRange.getText().getString().length();
I'm not sure if the returned size does match the number of characters
under the windows OS if a line break happens to be in that XTextRange. A
trick like this should solve the problem:
String text =xtextRange.getText().getString().length();
if (System.getProperty("os.name").startsWith("Windows"))
text = text.replaceAll(System.getProperty("line.separator"), "\n");
return text.length()
I sadly found no easier way to count characters in a XTextRange.
Regards,
Daniel
