Are you using LibreOffice or OpenOffice. That LibreOffice thread is old, it now has an expert configuration where a lot of values can be set but I don't know enough to know whether that is one of them Another way is with a macro. The attached document has one (mostly made with the macro recorder) to...

What's in the block of text - are there OO specific features apart from plain text which might not copy? You could try saving that block of text as an rtf file and then open it again (in Word) and insert that into your other Word document.

You can remove the paragraph after the last table with this macro:

Apart from the IDE help file, Pitonyak's free books, searching here - someone's usually already asked a similar question - there is the MRI Object Inspector which is invaluable. https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49294 this extension is too: https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/pr...

You can open a file with SystemShellExecute. This works for me on Windows, I presume Linux also. oSvc = createUnoService("com.sun.star.system.SystemShellExecute") oSvc.execute(ConvertToUrl("C:\windows\notepad.exe"), "C:\tmp\a.txt", 0) Controlling an external application...

Have you tried selecting the first or second parts and then insert menu - section and ticking the Hide box so the section is hidden?

AltFullScreen Extension For Writer Help (for MS Windows Only) Writer's native Full Screen feature doesn't allow access to panels or the Status bar or the Menubar. This extension is an alternative full screen which is more flexible. It only works on Microsoft Windows as it uses Windows OS Api calls. ...

createContainerWindow requires a URL. If you want to create a window without one you can use createWindow but then, my understanding is, you need to do a lot more work involving attaching the dialog model etc if needed. Resizing after creating the dialog seems a non-issue to me - you can resize it b...

If you're saying this gives an error .OutputType = com.sun.star.text.MailMergeType.FILE then have you tried the constant instead .OutputType =2 I don't know VFP but Array() creates and passes an empty array in Basic - have you tried defining an empty array in VFP and then passing that?

Do you want to assign a macro at runtime?

If you want to take control of the IDE dialog page using basic - I think the best you could do would be to export the dialog, edit the xml file, then import the edited version.

You have to write the macro first in a module then double click on the dialog control in the IDE Choose the events tab of the properties window that pops up. Click on the ... at the for right for the event you want to set Click on the macro button in the assign action window to look up the macro you...

The XVisualNavigator extension has page previews, if it still works (its old)

There is the organon extension, if that might be in the realm of what you're looking for:

go to Window Menu/new window...
size the new window appropriately, put it on the left, and zoom to a small size so it looks like a column of whole pages

Modify the paragraph style so its font is black instead of automatic.

There aren't any developers here - the forum is for helping users.

I'm unclear about exactly what feature you want... would a master document be any use for this?

My guess is its unlikely its going to be a few lines of code - some things are much longer in OO that Office VBA. So if you post what you've got and where you're stuck - at the moment you're asking us to write it all for you. (Someone might... sometimes they do... but, the idea of this is to help pe...

Have you looked at the documentation on automation?

A search will find threads here on mail merge and PDF Creation.

If you removed it by cutting it eg ctr+x key there might be a copy on Window's clipboard manager (win+v). (That gets cleared on shutdown but some 3rd party clipboard managers save the history)

Removing with the delete key or selecting it and typing something to replace it doesn't do that.

Its setEnable not setEnabled - use MRI and you can easily find out for yourself.

Select the cells, then:

If you have some long text with line feed characters you could try pasting it into Notepad as an intermediary and then from there into Writer. That may convert the line feeds to paragraph marks and let you do it in one go instead of in chunks.

I just use Basic so don't know anything about creating a controller. My code to create a blank clickable status bar item in Basic is here. https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=110487 It is indeed a bit like a nasty hack, but attached is a rudimentary extension for adding a dialog to...

There's no changed document been uploaded.

Did you try MrProgrammer's suggestion, he's added more links to his post above?

My understanding is: Its not possible to write a statusbar controller in Basic and you'd need to use a different language. You can replace the status bar with a progress bar and some text, but then you lose the status bar features You can create a clickable blank item on the status bar in Basic. And...

Documents you post should have sensitive information removed. Column c only has green or no color in it. By a separate sheet you seem to mean a sheet in a different document? Perhaps you could make a simple version (with sensitive information removed) of part of the original and the matching result ...

Have you tried the macro recorder - sounds like it might be able to do what you're asking, or some of it? How did you do them the first time as you talk about rewriting?

Thanks Lupp. Yeah, page styles are a paragraph property - not very intuitive. My code assumes that the applied page style's next page style will be the desired one - otherwise you'll also need to set the following page's first paragraph's page style to override the style's next page style setting.

This creates a new page style and then sets the viewcursor pagestyle to it in Basic with thiscomponent.stylefamilies.getbyname("PageStyles") ps = thiscomponent.CreateInstance("com.sun.star.style.PageStyle") .insertbyname "MyNewStyleName",ps end with thiscomponent.curren...
