Re: warning - Editor Wars!!!--how about some heresy on behalf of the "Joe 6-Pack" word processor user

2015-06-27 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak
So, what was the purpose and use of "reveal codes" in WP? The reason has 
always been explained to me as a method to deal with character property 
changes when the user could not figure out where they were occurring and 
then remove them. In WP, I vaguely remember that it was possible to have 
tags to start and stop bold with no characters between them, and other 
odd things. I don't remember if I could have something really strange like




or



With no text, just lots of confusion. I could be mistaken, but, I think 
that the advantage of reveal codes was that you could find oddities such 
as this and remove them and you had no other method of dealing with it. 
In WP, when you reveal the codes, you can then move through them and 
individual delete them. Note that the macro that exists today only 
allows a certain level of visualization with no deletion capabilities.


There are multiple reasons that this functionality has never been 
integrated into AOO. I even considered writing one myself, but then I 
started to think about exactly what this would or should do in the 
context of AOO and how it works. For example, lets assume that you see 
some text that is bold. To someone unfamiliar with how styles work in 
AOO, the first assumption is that it should simply show you every place 
that a character property changes. Seems simple enough. It is probably 
worth knowing that character property changed. For a simple example, 
consider bold text. How does one make text bold in a text document?


1. Hard code a property change by selecting the text and marking it as bold.
2. Set the "font effects" in a character style and apply the character 
style to the text.

3. In a paragraph style, set the Font Style to Bold.

What do you see in the "Reveal Codes 2" macro? I am looking at it now.

1. You see all style changes it seems. So, you can know that  style 
changed, but not that the style set the font to be bold.
2. When I manually set some text to be bold, what it really shows as the 
CharWeight, CharWeightComplex, and CharWeightAsian property is set to 
150. This is far more fine grained and useful than Bold on and Bold off 
(I can indicate how bold it is or is not). setting to 100 internally is 
normal. 150 is bold. You can set it higher or lower I believe.


Clearly I don't really understand what I am looking at because it looks 
like it does not nicely show when things start and end, but it looks 
more like when it starts and then when something else starts (for the 
bold), and when I click on what I thought should be having "bold" stop, 
it set the rest of the text bold. Probabl a bug, but I do not know the 
intention. Then again, it might be a bug that I introduced with one of 
my "fixes"


Looks like Reveal codes 3 handles this better. Oh, I see now the 
button with "CharWeight: 150>" is where it starts and "is where it ends. Not how I would have represented it, but I am more 
likely to think of it in terms of XML notation with "" 
to start and "" to end.


Version 2 has the ability to then move around through the document with 
buttons, 3 does not. 3 has some dialogs for configuration, 2 does not.


Ian Laurenson wrote these back in 2004.

So, if I set the character to be bold in a character style or a 
paragraph style, you would never know since that is not specifically 
enumerated, just that the style has changed, not what it changed.

Yes, it does. Then again,  it makes me wonder how great reveal codes are. 
If it were important to many people, shouldn't someone who used them regularly 
have kept the extension up to date? It would take some time to learn how to do 
this though.
In this case, the person who stated that it should be part of OO should "bite 
the bullet," learn how to create the extension,  and do so. Then he/she should keep 
it up to date.
It might prove how important reveal codes really are by the number of 
downloads of this extension.

2015-06-26 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak

Send me an email off list with the title

"Please Send me RevealCodes2.odt"

And I will send you a couple of different versions.

Two versions were created, and off hand I don't remember the difference 
between the versions. I did a test run and I added some fixes since they 
were broken, at least when I tested them in LO (latest version on 
Linux). So, I fixed both of them. It seems that you can click on the 
tags, but I did not take the time to figure out what was going on. I did 
not perform significant testing, so I don't know what I missed as far as 
bugs. I did not write the code and I find the show formatting tags 
usually useless.


I will send both the 2 and 3 versions to you if you ask. If I do not 
respond, ask me again, and if I still do not respond, post to the list. 
I receive literally hundreds of email a day and so sometimes things are 
lost.

Re: Inserting 100 small text files into doc

2015-05-03 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak


Are these straight up text documents?

If so, I think that a method has already been shown for how to copy all 
the files to one and then you can insert a single file.


On Linux, this is even easier...

Of course, since I like to write macros, I would write a macro that 
looked something like this:



sFulPath = "path to a document"

oDoc = ThisComponent
oText = oDoc.Text
oCurs = oText.createTextCursor()
oCurs.gotoEnd(False)
oSFA = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.ucb.SimpleFileAccess")
  If NOT oSFA.exists(sFullPath) Then
MsgBox ("Unable to open " & sFullPath & ". Please check folder 
settings.")

Exit Sub
  Else
oTextStream = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.io.TextInputStream")
oTextStream.setEncoding("UTF-8")
'oTextStream.setEncoding("LATIN-1")
iStream = oSFA.openFileRead(sFullPath)
oTextStream.setInputStream(iStream)
Do While NOT oTextStream.isEOF()
  s = oTextStream.readLine()
  oText.InsertString(oText.End, s, False)
oText.InsertControlCharacter(oText.getEnd(),com.sun.star.text.ControlCharacter.APPEND_PARAGRAPH, 
False)

Loop
oTextStream.closeInput()
  End If

Then you would just need to write a macro to loop through each file of 
interest.

There are problems: the individual documents might lose their

complexities of Master Documents and their structure.  For a one-off 
task the hundred documents could have been inserted by hand using 
/File /Insert and an hour's work.


My experience with master documents has been that the expanded master 
document cannot be edited directly, only the individual component 
files may be edited.

How does a file disappear? That is an easy one. If you always save the 
file to the same file name, and something then happens to that one file, 
then there are no other copies.


I have seen this as follows:

Click on Save, and something goes wrong while saving, which corrupts the 
file (say it crashing mid-write).

I'm pretty sure that anything that can read docx can read doc 1997,

Alternatively, you could use the products from Softmaker Office,

Apache Open Office hasn't got an export filter to .docx. Why do you 
need such? If the recipient owns a new MS Office, it can read .odt 
files. If the recipient has an old MS Office, you should use .doc. For 
your own purpose you should always use .odt and only convert on 
demand, if a recipient forces you to use another file format.


The office suites have differences in their capabilities, which 
prevent, that the .odt and .docx formats are 100% convertible to each 
other. So there is always a risc in converting.


LibreOffice has got .docx export filters via www.osb-alliance.de. 
Maybe you install LibreOffice in addition.


Or you install MS Office. If you have got a valid license already, 
what is the problem?


Kind regards
Regina
As a side note, I do have LibreOffice (LO) installed, which means that I 
am able to save in the DOCX format, but, I still opt for DOC if 
permissible because DOC is better supported than DOCX. I am not saying 
that I have had problems exporting as DOCX when I have done it, just 
that I rarely need DOCX format.


If you have a hard requirement for producing DOCX formats, install LO. 
If you are able to use DOC formats, you have that with AOO (Apache 
OpenOffice).


If you have very special case formatting in your documents, it is 
possible that you must use exactly the same version of MS Word as your 
target audience uses since there are often discrepancies in corner cases 
such as certain positioning of floating images and frames. In this case 
you are always best served to verify that the target application is used 
to open and test the document for proper rendering. Many years ago I had 
issues in this regard, so I simply changed how I chose to format the 
document and I used methods that translated well into the target format. 
That was long enough ago that it may be like recommending that you bring 
an extra 5 tires with you for your trip to Florida because the rubber is 
bad and you will likely have a bunch of flats. The roads and the rubber 
are better than 100 years ago and that advice is no longer required. I 
have no idea how it applies to the current batch of software, but, I am 
always paranoid.

a) Willing to lose everything but content;
b) Willing to lose everything but content and presentation markup;

A not so minor issue is that the MSO *x file formats, and OOXML file
formats are two dissimilar file formats, that, at first glance, appear
to be identical.

IOW, even if AOO has perfect OOXML file format compatibility, it means
squat, in terms of MSO *x file format compatibility.
Well, the reasons for adding it are obvious... so that you can read / 
write the format.


Reasons for not supporting it:


1.  Uses resources that could be used for other things.
2.  ideology: Force people to ODF formats
3.  The format is poorly defined and contains all sorts of garbage in it

You know, those sorts of things.

Still no answer Hmmm...

1. Did they used work and then stop working after something memorable 
happened (like installing a new version of AOO)?


2. Have you tried resetting your user profile?

Re: Question for you.....

2014-09-03 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak
No concrete answers, but, off hand, it sounds like AOO thinks that every 
word is spelled incorrectly. Make certain that you have the proper 
dictionaries installed and that the language is set correctly on text.


Sorry, no time to explain that, I am late for something else.

He is not subscribed to the list I don't think, since he did not respond 
until I forwarded a previous list message to him, and then he responded 
to me directly and not the list.


I think that I know why it is not working (like it does not know about 
the library because the library configuration file does not reference 
it), but I have no idea how that occurred.


Also note that he is running OOo and not AOO; wowser.

That message seems to be saying that a Basic library loaded at the 
directory you list does not exist.


Which version of OpenOffice are you running? Did you, perhaps, install a 
new version of OpenOffice?


Do you have the directory as listed above? If yes, what files are in 
that directory?



I do not have a Windows instance to check against; sorry. I will do some 
guessing.


How did you find this path? Do you find this path somewhere in options, 
or, did you look on your hard drive?


This may be only marginally useful to you, but, I am currently on a 
Linux computer and I have LibreOffice installed, but, I think that the 
information will still be useful to you.


I have a file located here:

/home/andy/.config/libreoffice/4/user/basic/script.xlc

I expect that from what you stated, you should have a file here:

C:\Users\His\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice.org\3\user\basic\script.xlc

If you look at script.xlc, I expect that you will find an entry that 
looks something like this:


 xlink:href="$(USER)/basic/Calc/script.xlb/" xlink:type="simple" 
library:link="false"/>


This is saying that you have a library named Calc and that it is 
described in the file script.xlb. (remember that I asked about the files 
in that directory above).


Just trying to get a feel for what you have on your machine.

So a document created in MSO 2010 with an image does not contain the

Hi

For weeks I have been looking for an answer this problem.  I have 
tried the documentation and the forums.  I have searched the 
internet.  The problems started when I upgraded from 3.x to 4.0 and 
beyond.


I have always been able to go from Word 2010 to Oo and back again. My 
friend did her work on Word, emailed it to me, I made comments in Oo, 
saved it in Word format, then sent it back to her in Word format.  It 
was fine.  It worked great.


However, after updating to 4.0 that all went away.  So, I thought 
something must be a bit buggy and updated to the latest version last 
week.  Still the same bad results.   I was made aware of this when an 
eight hour editing job had to be completely redone on another computer 
that had Word 2010 on it.  The client called and said the comment 
boxes were not usable.  Sure enough, I opened the file in Word 2010 
and it was a horrible mess.


The trouble is that comments made in OpenOffice get trashed when the 
document is opened by Word 2010.  They show a space between each 
letter.  There is a blank line between each line of text that can not 
be deleted.  And, the words that were once in one comment box are now 
spread through multiple boxes, pushing the text from box to box until 
at the last box all over spill text is deleted.


Maybe I am not saving it in the right file type?  Any help would be 
greatly appreciated.


Thank you so much.

Cindy


You bring up the file type, and then you fail to mention what file type

How are you opening the documents? Double click on a document from say

One thing I think will be useful is to explain for a beginner how to test

Thank you.


The base language is very similar, but the MSO version is riddled with 
annoying behaviors (I will call them bugs) such as the fact that things 
such as LBOUND will fail on an uninitialized array. This has been fixed 
in OO. So, if you have a macro that uses the language features and does 
not modify a document, it will probably work.


Side note: If you are writing macros for MSO to run in MSO, use .NET; it 
is not portable, but it sure beats working around the poor language 
implementation.


OK, back again If you are manipulating a document, just assume it 
will not work with exceptions for very common operations in Calc 
documents after you set compatibility mode. They may have support for 
other document types, but I am not aware of it - and I have very little 
experience trying to open MSO macros in OO. So, consider it a mostly 
uninformed opinion in that regard.

Re: Absurd thing about macro security

On 07/06/2014 05:08 AM, Johnny Rosenberg wrote:

2014-07-06 2:53 GMT+02:00 Alexandro Colorado :


Can you tell us what does ur macro actually do?


There are quite a few and they are different for each spreadsheet file.



Most of these settings are declared on the XCU whicch are XML. The
schema could have changed or something along those lines like the path
on the ~/.openoffice/ folder.

However maybe you run your macros within AOO which could be a
different service, so until we dont get that information we cant tell
which change could have an effect on your macro.


I am only talking about ordinary Basic macros written in the Basic IDE.
They are not run until I actively run them, in this case by cliocking a
giant button in the spreadsheet. It shouldn't matter what it does, and
there are more than one of them, but the most important one, for instance,
reads the clipboard and extract the text part from it. Then it fills some
cells (which ones is up the the macro to calculate) with some parts of that
text.

Anyway, the problem isn't the macro itself. The problem is that when I open
one of those spreadsheets, Apache OpenOffice tells me that this spreadsheet
contains macros (which it does), before even finished loading the
spreadsheet at all. The dialogue then lets me open the spreadsheet with
macros disabled…

So I go into Macro security and add the path in which the link to the
spreadsheet is located, close Apache OpenOffice and try again, and this
time the macros are loaded properly without any error messages.

I don't complain about the behaviour, actually I can see that this is how
it should work. What I'm asking is WHY could I open them from that folder
BEFORE yesterday?

The document itself is stored as, let's say ~/some/path/spreadsheet.ods,
but I open it by clicking ~/another/path/link_to_some_path_spreadsheet.ods.
~/some/path/ is added to the macro security paths list, ~/another/path/ is
not. Before yesterday I could open the document by clicking the link, now I
can't and I didn't change any settings within Apache OpenOffice. I think
the correct behaviour is performed now and NOT before yesterday, but I
don't understand why this happened. Bug? Is there another macro security
setting elsewhere that I missed?

I did a fresh install of my operating system a couple of weeks ago, so I
now run Apache OpenOffice on Ubuntu 14.04 rather than Ubuntu 12.04.

Anyway,

one of the first things I did, was to throw LibreOffice out the window

and

install Apache OpenOffice.

There are a few spreadsheets that I edit every day, almost, and the first
thing I experience after a fresh operating system install is usually

that I

need to add macro paths to the macro security paths list.

I usually add them one by one when I need them and for now I only need to
run macros in spreadsheets at ”~/Kontor/Ekonomi/” (in English:
~/Office/Economy/). However, to open those spreadsheets I click on a link
located in a folder on my desktop, ”~/Skrivbord/Frekvent använt/” (in
English: ”~/Desktop/Frequently used/”). All I did so far was that I added
the ”~/Kontor/Ekonomi/” path to the macro security list thing, and it
worked perfectly for those weeks. Until today.

Now, when opening one of those spreadsheets, it says that it won't run

any

of my macros.

So now I just gave up and added ”~/Skrivbord/Frekvent använt/” and Apache
OpenOffice seemt to be happy with that. But why, WHY, WHY, WHY did it

work

before today? I've been opening those links all the time since I put them
there, without any kinds of problems!

The only thing that is different now from before, is that I moved my
computer a few meters and that I use two screens instead of one now. How
could that matter?

In my school all computers use Microsoft Office. When I do works there 
in PowerPoint, Word...
When I get back home to open the works in OpenOffice the works are all 
disconfigured.
Like the pictures are on top of the texts and the texts are spread all

Why I can not return home with all my work in the same place and

There is any options in OpenOffice to resolve that or it's the problem 
of the compatibility ?



I think that you said:

1. You edit files in MSO
2. You open the files in AOO and the formatting is not correct.


What file format are you using? Sometimes you can fix the problem by 
using a different file format. For example, write a .doc file rather 
than a .docx file. I have more experience in the word processing area 
than in presentations, but, at least with word processing, the choice of 
how an image is anchored can make all the difference. For example, I 
like to anchor my images as a character and they seem to export just 
fine between Word and Write. Just wanted to mention it.

Reveal Codes is a very useful tool.  It works independently of the "Style

Logically, it seems the more "style rules" the less efficient  OO Writer.

Guess you could say, reveal codes is like lifting the hood of a vehicle to
change spark plugs.  While "style rules" feature is  similar to
re-configuring the vehicle to operate bypassing spark plugs (takes more

I think I remember some very intense discussions about this a couple of

years ago, it was almost like some kind of war or something… Some people
said it will never happen since there is nothing to reveal (Apache
OpenOffice just doesn't work like that). Still someone managed to write an
extension that does this, I think. I guess it fakes it somehow. Some people
also think that it's not a good habit using them, and that styles is the
way to go and so on. Some people also says that it's a bad habit to use a
lot of character styles in text. So it seems like a lot of people are
against the idea of reveal codes while others want them. I don't know. I
have no use for them personally, so I don't care, but… well…


Johnny Rosenberg

It has been a long time since I tested the macro, so I don't remember 
what it showed and what it did not. If you really want to design this, 
then, it should likely not just be a duplicate of Word Perfect 
functionality. For example, what if


My paragraph style sets character weight (that means how "BOLD" is it). 
Then, I manually set a bold amount, and, finally, I apply a character 
style that sets the character weight differently. Now, understand that 
if I do this in a macro, it is not as simple as bold is on or off, I can 
set a numeric value for it for all three of these things. This level of 
subtlety does not exist in the WP reveal codes stuff, it is merely on / 
off. This could be very confusing if I have the three bold settings so 
that they are all marginally bold (like say 90% bold, 100% bold, and 
110% bold).


My head hurts now!

I assume that this feature (which would be cool to have) has likely not 
been seriously attempted for integration since a real implementation 
would require you to deal with these issues. Also, the macro version of 
the implementation is far from a working implementation. Think of it as 
a way to troll the code and then show an XML like version of the text in 
a dialog with certain change types shown; if my memory is correct.

Re: Suggestion.

2014-05-15 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak


Some of what you want is easily available as follows:


Use Tools | Options to open the options dialog.

On the left, expend the section for Writer | Formatting Aids (you may 
need to have a writer document open at the time)


You can then tell it to display things such as Paragraph end, spaces, 
non-breaking spaces, tabs, breaks, and similar.


There is a macro that does something similar here:

http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/hillview/OOo/

These were written 10 years back. I vaguely remember running 
RevealCodes2 or RevealCodes3, and, I think that I needed to fix 
something so that it would work... I don't really remember.


One problem with a reveal codes macro in OOo is that formatting is often 
not changed based on directly applied formatting, but by styles. This 
may be a paragraph style, a character style, or, as directly applied 
formatting.

However there is one very important property (if that's the right word) that WP had that is 
missing from all the Word Processors that I have used. That is what WP called "Reveal 
Codes", where every change that was made in the document was shown by a particular code. e.g.: 
Hard return was "HRT". If this was not what was wanted then you could make the change you 
required. Or as sometimes happens in OpenOffice, something happens which I don't understand, I have 
no way of finding out why.
Would it be possible to incorporate this feature in OpenOffice? It

Re: Printing text Doc

2014-04-02 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak

Do you have this problem with all pages, or only some?

Is this a Windows thing, or, is it a vendor provided feature?

I assume that at some level Microsoft supports this because I found one 
place where they claim that some web pages will not shrink to fit if a 
page specifies "exactly where text should print". In other words, if I 
say "Print this one inch from the top and three inches from the left", 
it will not properly shrink. I found this on a windows 7 FAQ, so, no 
idea if it is related or not.


A few disclaimers: I rarely ever use Windows 8, so I have little 
familiarity with it. I do own a Windows 8.1 machine, but I rarely ever 
use it.


That said, What happens if you export the document to PDF and then try 
to print the PDF with shrink to fit? This may provide a work-around, 
and, if it still fails to print, you can suspect that something else may 
be happening.

Re: [openoffice] Flipping a table

2014-01-15 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak


Having a bit of trouble understanding the question

I think that what you want to do is to reverse the order (based on 
rows), so that the first row becomes the last row and the last row 
becomes the first row.


Although this can be done using a macro, I would probably do something 
like.


1. Find the last used column in your sheet. For now, lets pretend it is 
column K
2. In column K, enter the values 1, 2, 3,  so K1 contains 1, K2 
contains 2, etc.
   --- Enter 1 in K1, 2 in K2, 3 in K3. Starting in cell K1, drag to 
cell K3 to select cells K1 through K3.
   --- In the lower right corner of your selection, you will see a 
small black box, Hover your mouse cursor over that and it turns into 
large "cross"
   --- Click and drag the mouse down. If you pull it to the bottom, it 
will continue scrolling.
   --- Release your mouse and it will have entered the numbers in a 
continuous way.

3. Select from cell A1 to that last cell in column K
4. Sort your data descending based on column K

Re: Basic Macro – write a file

2013-11-24 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak

On 11/22/2013 06:41 PM, Johnny Rosenberg wrote:

Dim iNumber As Integer
iNumber = Freefile
Open sFilePath For Output As #iNumber
Print #iNumber, "Line 1"
Print #iNumber, "Line 2"
Close #iNumber


The file now looks like this (in hex values):
4C 69 6E 65 20 31 0A
4C 69 6E 65 20 32 0A

So every line ends with 0A (Chr(10)).
The file is going to be in a special text file format suited for a specific
app, so I need every line to end with 0D 0A (Chr(13) & Chr(10)). Is that
possible? How? Can I see a short example of that, that creates a text file
that looks like the following?
4C 69 6E 65 20 31 0D 0A
4C 69 6E 65 20 32 0D 0A

Johnny Rosenberg


Sadly, the obvious solution fails horribly by stripping the 0x0D

Print #iNumber, "Line 1" & CHR$(13)


This solution, however, works just fine!

  Dim sFilePath$ : sFilePath = "/home/MrRosenberg/x.txt"
  Dim oSFA' SimpleFileAccess service.
  Dim sFileName$  ' Name of file to open.
  Dim oStream ' Stream returned from SimpleFileAccess.
  Dim oTextStream ' TextStream service.
  Dim sStrings' Strings to test write / read.
  Dim sInput$ ' The string that is read.
  Dim s$  ' Accumulate result to print.
  Dim i%  ' Index variable.

  sStrings = Array("One", "UTF:Āā", "1@3")

  ' File to use.
  sFileName = sFilePath
  ' Create the SimpleFileAccess service.
  oSFA = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.ucb.SimpleFileAccess")
  'Create the Specialized stream.
  oTextStream = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.io.TextOutputStream")

  'If the file already exists, delete it.
  If oSFA.exists(sFileName) Then
oSFA.kill(sFileName)
  End If

  ' Open the file for writing.
  oStream = oSFA.openFileWrite(sFileName)

  ' Attach the simple stream to the text stream.
  ' The text stream will use the simple stream.
  oTextStream.setOutputStream(oStream)

  ' Write the strings.
  oTextStream.writeString("Line 1" & CHR$(13) & CHR$(10))
  oTextStream.writeString("Line 2" & CHR$(13) & CHR$(10))

  ' Close the stream.
  oTextStream.closeOutput()

Re: Open Office does not initialise

2013-11-19 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak
I am glad that things seem to be working fine now. In the future, if OO 
seems to hang, jump to the task manager and kill the soffice process 
and/or tasks. I have certainly seen it (on Windows and Linux) hang with 
nothing displayed. When that happens, a new instance will not properly 
start until the existing processes are killed. I don't see this often, 
and I don't even remember what I last saw it.

I assume you are using windows of some sort.

what happened when you did it.

(1) Do you mean that you use Windows Explorer to find a WORD document
and then you double click on the WORD document and OO does not open?

(2) Do you mean that you use File > Open, select a Word document?

(3) What if OO is already open and editing a document when you try (1)
or (2)

If OO has failed in some way, try this to start:

Open the task manager (I think you use Control+Alt+Del and then select
open the task manager).

I think that from the process list (is that what it is called, I am not
on a windows box), look for the process labeled "soffice", and kill it.
If OO is running, make sure that you have saved all documents first,
because this should kill OO.

Re: Java Troubles When Trying to Use Mail Merge

2013-11-13 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak
Despite Dr. Zarlenga's odd claims, I do believe that it is possible to 
run Java on Windows. I happen to use Linux, so anything that I say is of 
course suspect.


A few questions for you.

1. What version of AOO are you using? 4.x? For version 3.x, you need 
Java 6, for AOO 4, you can use 7.
2. What vesrion of Java. Note that I believe that AOO can only use a 
32-bit version of Java, not a 64-bit version.
3. Somewhere under Tools > Options  you can tell AOO where your Java 
is installed. This must be set I believe. I cannot check the actual path 
at the moment (since I don't have AOO installed on the machine I am 
using now).


There are some comments here:

So you cannot share the file with some member, that limits things a 
bit... but it turns out that Microsoft is very good at copying what 
others have done and they use the same container as an ODF file; a zip 
container.


Save your fail as say x.zip and then see if you can look at x.zip using 
your favorite zip viewer. If you cannot, then it is not a DOCX file (or 
it is damaged).

I was not aware that you could script Excel in Java. Do you mean
control Excel in Java, or literally embed a Java Script that is
runnable in Excel?

I meant provide more complex code to be executed when various events
occur in the spreadsheet.  That code needs to have access to and the
ability to modify other parts of the spreadsheet as well as maintain
global state.  None of this has to interact with any complex back end;
it's just complex calculations for other (display-only) parts of the
spreadsheet.

I thought MS had bindings for things besides VB for excel;
and was hoping there was some alignment between those and OO.
It appears I was wrong on both counts.  But I also thought I
could use VB callbacks to call into a java back end to get around
no java bindings.

However, something like Obba may make what I need to do possible, although
it's not obvious if it has a framework for also modifying the spreadsheet
contents from the jvm.

Gary

No idea what Excel offers in terms of scripting support, or events that 
you can hook into. I do know that OO supports certain hooks, but I am 
not clear on what they all or off the top of my head.


I googled "excel event listener documentation" and I found a few things, 
including something at cpearson dot com.


I expect that the listener infrastructure in AOO, however, will not 
remotely look like that supported by Excel. If your platform is Windows, 
you can probably load and call a DLL in both platforms. I do not know 
how (off hand) to call a Java class file from basic (never even tried to 
do it).

Re: How?

2013-08-23 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak


Now, on to your question...

My best guess is that the windows add/remove stuff works by looking at 
the windows registery. Removing a program probably looks in the 
registery to see where the installer is located (but I am guessing).


If this points to a CD, that is a problem and you cannot remove it that 
way.


My recommendation is that you download a copy of the program from the 
internet (same version) and then run the installer that you downloaded. 
That will probably fix your problem

written an FFT  add-on function for AOO Calc?

I have a package written for MS Excel which simulates the mixing of two 
sinusoidal waves and displays both the input and output waveforms on a virtual 
oscilloscope that uses the graphing feature.  The package also has a virtual 
spectrum analyser that will show the harmonic content of the product waveform 
but this needs to use the FFT function which is available in MS Excel.  I don’t 
currently use MS Office and would like to run the package in AOO but without an 
FFT function, I cant use the spectrum analyser to show the harmonic content of 
the combined waveforms.

There are many applications for this type of simulation package and It would be 
good to be able to use AOO Calc instead of having to rely on MS Excel!

Advice on how to go about creating a suitable function would be most 
appreciated if there are no functions currently available.

Regards

Geoff Williams

I am not sure what this is since I have never had any particular

can understand that a particular single quote is an "inch mark" as 
opposed to a non-curly double quote.


I think the reference to an "inch mark" is simply a way of identifying 
your (typewriter-style) "non-curly" double quote.


But Mr McGarrett does have a point, I think.  OpenOffice Writer will 
replace typed single and double quotes with what it calls custom 
quotes quite efficiently as you type.  But if you have existing 
straight quotes in a document (perhaps in an inherited document or in 
text pasted in from elsewhere), there appears to be no easy way to 
apply that intelligence after the event.  You could replace a straight 
quote with a curly one, but you'd have to select manually the 
individual cases where you needed open and close quotes: you cannot at 
this stage invoke Writer's ability to use its intelligence about 
this.  In some other word processors (dare I mention Microsoft Word if 
I promise to wash my mouth out?), you can merely replace straight 
quotes with straight quotes: replacement is treated the same way as 
typing, the same intelligence is invoked, and curly quotes of the 
appropriate handedness are substituted en masse.


Brian Barker

Oh, now I get it WP will auto-magically replace straight quotes with 
curly quotes when you import a document. For most of what I do, that 
would really mess things up for me. I did have one document, however, 
where I desired that beahvior, so I wrote a macro to do it if I remember 
correctly; would have been nice to have had a built-in command to do it 
for me already.

Re: Codes

2013-06-22 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak
Doug, I can provide a macro that does provide an ability to reveal codes 
(not written by me), but, sadly, if you don't understand how styles 
work, it might not be helpful because it shows things like "this style 
begins here".


On 06/22/2013 02:44 PM, Doug wrote:

Maybe it's because we're not programmers. We're people who just want to
use a word processor without all the folderol of "styles."


Well said!

There are some things that if you learn them it will make things work 
much easier and faster. I remember about two years ago showing a user in 
Word Perfect that they did not need to force a new line break by 
inserting a bunch of spaces. It was a "concepts" lesson I suppose. So, 
it seems that some things are probably worth your time (like at least 
learning a bit about styles, I think that almost every word processor 
does support them these days) and some things that probably are not 
worth your time (like programming, which although useful, won't really 
help you writing documents).



It may not
have occurred to some OO/LO folks that most of us do not want to change
styles or formats  all the time. Or, maybe, ever.  About the only
formats I ever change are typeface, type size, and justification.
Most of us are not writing advertizing copy, and we're not typesetters.
We have no reason to keep fooling with different "styles."


Ironically, you probably do and are simply unaware that you are. For 
example do you ever select some text and click on the "bold" button? If 
so, then you just applied a style. That said, I do get your point.



Now if OO and LO are so great, why can't they deal with curly quotes and
apostrophes in imported text? I have to go thru and fix all the
damned inch marks one by one by hand. WordPerfect can do that
automatically. Not only that, it can differentiate between quote marks
and real inch and foot designators. Let's see your OO/LO do that!


I am not sure what this is since I have never had any particular 
difficulty dealing with these things though I am not sure how one 
can understand that a particular single quote is an "inch mark" as 
opposed to a non-curly double quote.



If I remember correctly--I haven't looked at OO/LO in some time--they
don't let you find and replace double spaces. Maybe they fixed that?


Don't think it ever could not do that, which tells me that I clearly do 
not understand the question.



But I tend to work in Linux most often, so without WordPerfect, I have
chosen the SoftMaker products. TextMaker works better, IMO, than either
of the freebies, and it doesn't look so primitive, either. Oh, and
there's now a free version of that, I hear.


Never heard of it until now. Looks like they are MSO friendly, not WP 
friendly. Interesting that it can run directly from a USB drive and 
states it is macro compatible.



It's hopeless, folks. OO/LO have decided for you that if you want to use
them, you will have to get a book on style-programming. Enjoy!
No, but it does help. When I use MSO at work, I need to use styles as 
well. Can't say as though I have used them in WP, but I hear that they 
do support them.

Set up stylist to display _applied_ _character_ styles.
setup the formatting bar, to display the current paragraph style name,
along with some of the more commonly changed parameters.

That setup will provide more useful information about what is going with
the styles one is using, than the "reveal codes" extension that was
created almost a decade ago.

My guess is that that will provide the functional equivalent of "reveal
codes" as used in WP.

jonathon
I think that this is already done using the existing RevealsCodes macro. 
The irony is that the existing macro will not help a WP user in they way 
that they expect unless all formatting changes are hard-coded rather 
than style based. As an example, when I use the existing RevealCodes 
macro (well, my modified version that does not crash), it shows me where 
styles stop and start. It does not show me, however, which of those 
styles causes a particular character to be bold. One might argue 
(validly I think) that if the text is not bold, a character style 
begins, and then the characters become bold, that they know the answer. 
Things are not as clear, however, if say a character style is in force 
for an entire paragraph so you do not know which forces the change.


For those of you that try to use RevealCodes2 and it fails, find the 
function named fnDirectProperties(oTextRange):



function fnDirectProperties(oTextRange)
dim oProperties as object, i as integer, nProperties as integer, 
nTypeClass as integer, sItem as string

dim j as integer, k as integer, vValue, oPropArray, nUbound as integer
dim emptyValue'NEW LINE
oProperties = oTextRange.propertySetinfo.Properties
nProperties = uBound(oProperties)
dim m(nProperties)
j = 0
on error resume next  'NEW LINE
for i = 0 to nProperties
if oTextRange.getPropertyState(oProperties(i).name) <> 
com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DEFAULT_VALUE and _
 ((oProperties(i).attributes and 
com.sun.star.beans.PropertyAttribute.READONLY) = 0) then

nTypeClass = oProperties(i).type.typeClass
sItem = oProperties(i).name
select case nTypeClass
case com.sun.star.uno.TypeClass.CHAR to 
com.sun.star.uno.TypeClass.STRING

vValue = emptyValue   'NEW LINE
vValue = oTextRange.getPropertyValue(sItem)

if sItem = "NumberingStartValue" and vValue = -1 then 
'or sItem = "ParaStyleName" then

'skip it
else
If NOT IsEmpty(vValue) Then 'NEW LINE
sItem = sItem & ": " & vValue
m(j) = sItem
j = j + 1
End If 'NEW LINE
end if


Although I could make it work with fewer changes, this was faster to

Re: [libreoffice-users] ”Artifacts” in OpenOffice and LibreOffice

2013-05-11 Thread Andrew Douglas Pitonyak


I have had subtle redraw issues with OO off and on, and I always blamed 
it on an interaction between applications and the video drivers. Realize 
that I use nVidia video cards on 64-bit Fedora using the proprietary 
video drivers. What I saw was not remotely as bad. Admittedly, when I 
tried out the latest dev build, it was totally unusable (of course, the 
single tester was unable to reproduce on Windows 7).


see https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=122214

Are you able to do a test and change your video driver say between the 
free and not free driver to see if there is a change (I do not use 
Ubuntu so I don't have a good handle on what drivers are available or how).


I used to have exactly the same problem in QT, and it was very bad. I 
was able to avoid the problem with QT Creator by starting it using


-graphicssystem raster

Not that I expect this to help you. I did notice that it still has some 
rendering issues that appeared in the latest versions (I believe it is 
related to an over-lay issue when you edit a field that assumption 
allowed me to fix it in the software that I write, but I did not jump 
into the QT code base).


I have seen strange redraw issues so long in OO that correcting for it 
is almost automatic in my brain (scroll screen up then down to clear) so 
I cannot even say if I still see the problem. I think I do, but it is 
for sure not as bad is it used to be for me.


I know, that I have rambled on and on I will summarize in saying

1. I have never seen it so bad
2. I have seen screen corruption
3. You may avoid some of it based on the video driver

If I had it that bad on my Fedora system, I would likely change my 
desktop on login to see if it helped. With Fedora, I can easily jump 
between Gnome and KDE (as one example). I would also try jumping between 
the two different drivers available to see how that helped as well. 
Sadly, the "free" driver is poor with respect to 3D stuff.

I have had this problem for quite some time now (months if not years)

It looks like a graphics card problem, but why are nothing else
affected? It only happens to OpenOffice and LibreOffice. I tested a
few versions and it seems to not matter. The screenshots are taken
with Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 and I saw the same thing in LibreOffice
3.5, 3.6 and 4.0. I think this also happened with earlier LibreOffice
versions, like 3.4 and 3.3. I didn't use OpenOffice since 3.2 (except
3.4.1, which I use these days), and I don't even remember what it
looked like.

Here's a screenshot with Apache OpenOffice Calc 3.4.1. I added some
arrows pointing at the problem areas:

The worst thing is when I try to use the Basic IDE, take a look at
this. Very hard to write and edit code when it looks like this:
http://ubuntuone.com/4HRPQMpblZT97UxHq5ggzO

My operating system is Ubuntu 12.04 and the more stuff I run at the
same time, the worse will it look.

My graphics card is the nVidia GeForce Go 7300, which is blacklisted
for use with the Unity 3D desktop, so that may be what's causing this
problem, but still it ONLY happens to LibreOffice and OpenOffice.

One thought that I have is that LibreOffice and OpenOffice are not GTK
applications (I think – are they?), but on the other hand, neither is
my web browser (Opera), and I don't have these problems with it.

Both LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org were installed with the official
deb files. The LibreOffice version that came with Ubuntu 12.04 was
carefully removed before installing what I have now.

Thoughts? Anyone else saw this?

Re: Macro for filling in blank cells. (Elisabeth Hansen)

Elisabeth,

You are subscribed to the openoffice mailing list where people post 
questions and the questions go to everyone that is subscribed.


To get off the list, if you desire to do so, simply send an email to:

Where is "getCurrentSelection" in that documentation (I was unable to

return?

My simple code copied from an example in that documentation:

Sub Main
sel = ThisComponent.getCurrentSelection()
count = sel.getCount()
End Sub

Fails saying "getCount" is not a method of sel (there is no "Count"
property either).

Is there a convenient API reference guide somewhere? E.g. what's the

"What does getCurrentSelection() return for an Open Office Spreadsheet?"

Thanks,

Is it possible to write a macro to do this (or is there maybe something

I'm not really sure how to start.

manually change one and then use it as
a template for the s&r, how will it know what to do?  And what about
apostrophes, in words like "can't?"


I had to do this some years ago for several book texts, so what I say is 
subject to possibly faulty memory!

Normally a leading quote is the sequence  and a trailing quote , 
or sometimes  . Ditto for single quotes, apart from the 
apostrophe.  I normally type a short line to generate sample curly quotes so I can Copy and Paste these 
into the Replace box.  My memory is that Find and Replace in OOo 3.x did not accept characters direct 
from /Insert /Special Characters, so I used this work around; this may have changed in AOo 3.4.x.

I then was able to use a few Find and Replace sequences to change an entire 
text.  I think I actually used AltSearch in place of Find and Replace for the 
last texts. I did have to check the texts for anomalies - there were a few, but 
these were picked up quickly in a proof-reading scan; I converted several book 
length texts in a matter of a few minutes each.

If you decide to use this method, do please keep an unmodified backup, as 
global Find and Replaces can quickly be disastrous until you get the hang of 
them.

it may be possible to do all this with either a macro or Regular Expressions. I 
have no great experience with either.

Step 1: Turn change tracking on.

Step 2: Do your magic to make the changes, what ever that may be.

Step 3: Review your changes, which would hopefully be rather quick.

You can probably do a safe search and replace by finding all spaces 
followed by a " and replace with a space followed by a curl-to-the-right 
double quote. You know, low hanging fruit and all. Same with " followed 
by a space. Just looking for some short cuts if you wanted to use search 
and replace.

(This scrambles many of the links between sheets, but I can fix these.)

However the graphs so transferred appear in the new file with a data

I do not want to build anew these graphs, they are complex, with many

Any ideas?  XP, OO 3.4


I have no particular comment on your current process, but is it 
possible for you to create a template from this (even if you only save a 
mostly empty copy for next year) so that you can start from the "mostly

The files does not appear to be an ODT file.

I peeked at the first few bytes of the file, and it should begin with

Perhaps I didn't make clear that I was responding to the previous

Yeah, you are correct with that one... Many of these, however, you can

Never thought about it that way. I suppose that there is already partial

Not sure I agree. If a font is set in AOO, it might be from a paragraph 
style, character style, direct formatting, or I guess maybe even font 
mapping.


Now, if it is set by a style, which style? For example, if you see that 
the character style is "_computer_literal", is that the style that set 
the font? Perhaps not. It might be the parent style to _computer_literal.


If things are difficult to understand in the document, I am more likely 
to blame the user well, unless you are reading one of my documents; 
then for sure the problem is the reader not the writer :-)

How does WP deal with formatting applied using a style? I have not used

that works. If you have one style that contains 12 formatting changes, 
it would be an interesting problem to then deal with that format change

I know nothing about styles in WP, are they similar to those used in OO? 
How many types (page, paragraph, character, outline, graph...)?

Gabriel Loy


My recommendation is that you

Remove AOO from your computer. Do you know how to uninstall a program? I 
don't have a windows machine near by, but what you need to do will vary 
depending on your version of windows. YOu need to do something like


Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs

That Uninstall part may be called "add / remove", or something like 
that.  Find OpenOffice, and remove it.


After you uninstall AOO, then, try a full install.

This should not take more than 10 minutes to try assuming you already 
have a copy of the latest AOO to install.


Another thought. The install process leaves a directory on your desktop 
(I believe) that contains a copy of the install files. I assume that you 
are running AOO by using "Start > All Programs > select AOO" rather than 
from a potentially older short-cut on your desktop.

What you suggest is what I already do, though not with LO. I just keep 
some machines loaded with original programming that can open the older 
files, and one poor, abused laptop that has the newer build of MS 
Office loaded--POS program.  I have, having once tried OO years ago 
and found it too limited and cumbersome, avoided Open Office. Then, on 
a whim, I decided to try it again after one of my acquaintances 
assured me that, really, it's nothing like when it first started.


If you are looking to learn the deep arts of OO, learn about styles. I 
first learned them when I reviewed a document on how to create and use 
Master Documents. It was not the material on Master Documents that was 
so useful to me (I still have not really used Master Documents), but the 
deep tutorial on how to setup and use Styles that mattered.


Loading it, I found it quite wonderful. Armed with that warm, fuzzy 
feeling, I began to explore the possibility of finally being able to 
reduce my network where I run a host of machines all the way down to 
Win 98 (managed to retire the 3.1 and 95 machines, now) What I had 
hoped was to finally avoid going from machine to machine on the 
network in order to open certain file formats. My office could use the 
space and would thank me very much for a new file cabinet, instead.  ;)


..Ah well, there it is, then.  Thanks for the heads up.  I'll give up 
that notion, then. =)  I suppose I could knock out a wall for the file 
cabinet.


Side note: If you are ever bored (I have a hard time imaging you bored), 
consider helping out. I believe that you have great talent that would be 
a great benefit to AOO. I won't even bother listing the areas, because 
your talents seem to be sufficiently varied that I am afraid to limit 
you. You clearly excel in areas where I am a bit lacking (you have seen 
my site, you know what I mean I am sure).

LibreOffice supports saving in these formats. I have removed AOO and

when I need to edit an "advanced" MSO document, I fire up a Virtual
