[Issue] Are macros executed during Impres presentations?

[peterk00]

OO 2.4 on Windows Vista

I want to enhance an Impress presentation by some interactive elements.
To give an example: I have two squares called "box1" and "yes1".
When user clicks on "box1" then "yes1" should get a shadow and viceversa - actually clicking on box1 toggles the shadow of yes1
(stupid example ... )

So I created this macro:

Code: Select all

Sub CheckIt1
     CheckIt(1)
End Sub

Function CheckIt( number )
   page = thisComponent.getCurrentController.getCurrentPage
   kobj = void
   obj = void
   if page.hasElements() then
	for i = 0 to page.getCount() - 1
		obj = page.getbyIndex(i)
		if obj.Name = "yes" & number then
			kobj = obj
		end if
	next i
       if kobj.Shadow = true then
	   kobj.Shadow = false
       else
	   kobj.Shadow = true
       end if
   end if
End Function

I can attach CheckIt1 to box1 with the "Interaction" feature choosing "On mouse click ... run macro".

It works beautiful in authoring mode ...
but not at all in slide-show-mode (or presentation mode - I do not know how to name it best)

So: No chance to get this? Or did I simply miss something?

Thanks for any advice ...

Hi,

I believe this is the same as issue http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=57663 . Target for this issue is 3.x, which is the OO wording for 'never'. Best you register at qa and vote for that issue

Good luck,
