The code used in the example first checks whether the database is password protected. This allows numbers to be handled in a manner which more closely reflects machine architecture. The replacement function of LibreOffice is particularly effective when used in conjunction with regular expressions. StarOffice 5: The database is actually accessed in LibreOffice through a ResultSet object. The functions responsible are insertByName, removeByName and replaceByName. Throughout this document, the LibreOffice installation directory is represented in syntax as install-dir. TRUE is -1 and FALSE is 0. Drawing objects include shapes (rectangles, circles, and so on), lines, and text objects. This guide provides an introduction to programming with LibreOffice Basic. If the text of the paragraph is now changed using the paragraph's String property, then LibreOffice first deletes the old paragraph portions and inserts a new paragraph portion. The text frame created in this way can then be inserted in the document using the insertTextContent method of the Text object. Any number of documents can be opened in this way in LibreOffice Basic and then edited using the returned document objects. There are, however, a few key differences: Users who want to provide their forms with their own methods for event handling, should refer to the #Dialogs chapter. If you assign a floating point number to an integer variable, the number is rounded up or down to the next whole number. To ensure that the footer line is visible, the FooterIsOn property is set to True. A Const definition in the module header is available to the code in that module. The following example replaces three characters with the string is from the sixth position of the MyString string. In this instance, access is provided directly through the HeaderText property of the page style rather than the HeaderFooterContent object. You should therefore be careful when using RmDir. In other words, the methods are assigned (as combinations) to the service in interfaces. All of these charts support the com.sun.star.chart.StackableDiagram service, which in turn provides the following properties: Line charts (com.sun.star.chart.LineDiagram) support two X-axes, two Y-axes and one Z-axis. Such objects and services are also known as context-independent services. This guide provides an introduction to programming with LibreOffice Basic. LibreOffice Writer supports the following types of styles: LibreOffice Calc supports the following types of styles: LibreOffice Impress supports the following types of styles: In LibreOffice terminology, the different types of styles are called StyleFamilies in accordance with the com.sun.star.style.StyleFamily service on which they are based. The type is declared in the same way as a variable declaration: If the return type is not specified (see first example of this page), the function returns a variant. In addition to the drawing functions that are provided by the Presentation property, the presentation document has a presentation object that provides access to the main properties and control mechanisms for presentations. The Exit Do command can exit at loop at any point within the loop. Parameters are normally passed by Reference in LibreOffice Basic. LibreOffice provides several ways of optimizing ResultSets and thereby controlling the speed of access. The lines are dark gray (Color) and are spaced is 0.2 millimeters (Distance) apart. When working with 3D charts, a Z-axis is also sometimes provided. One of these is used to query the value of the property and the other is issued to set it (get and set methods). It returns the string produced in this way as the result of the replacement process. Sunday is considered the first day of the week. Instead, the DoLoop is executed until a certain condition is met. The SetAttr function permits the properties of a file to be changed. You will find an overview of the character and paragraph properties available in LibreOffice in the following two sections. If the database is password protected, the example creates an InteractionHandler and opens the database connection using the ConnectWithCompletion method. To get the most out of this book, you should be familiar with other programming languages. The LibreOffice API provides two options for creating objects. Numbers can be presented in several ways, for example, in decimal format or in scientific notation, or even with a different base than the decimal system. Values for the Array fields can be stored like this: Accessing values in an array works like this: And example containing all steps that show real array usage: A variable in LibreOffice Basic has a limited life span and a limited scope from which it can be read and used in other program fragments. Whereas the document object in VBA is called a Workbook and its individual pages Worksheets, they are called SpreadsheetDocument and Sheet in LibreOffice Basic. The com.sun.star.text.TextTableRow service provides the following properties: Columns are accessed in the same way as rows, using the getByIndex, getCount, insertByIndex, and removeByIndex methods on the Column object, which is reached through getColumns. They can be displayed as 2D or 3D graphics (com.sun.star.chart.Dim3Ddiagram service). Note: As Basic makes automatic type conversions, there is usually no problems using a constant in an expression. Here are the central methods of the com.sun.star.table.XtableRows interface: Whereas the getByIndex and getCount methods are available in all tables, the insertByIndex and removeByIndex methods can only be used in tables that do not contain merged cells. No programming knowledge is needed to use the corresponding functions. The following example inserts a paragraph after the 20th character of a text: The False parameter in the call of the insertControlCharacter method ensures that the area currently highlighted by the TextCursor remains after the insert operation. LibreOffice Basic provides the getPropertyState method, with which programmers can check how a certain property was formatted. The Filtername property defines whether LibreOffice uses a LibreOffice Calc text filter to open files. The query object is first created using the createUnoService call, then initialized, and then inserted into the QueryDefinitions object by means of insertByName. The simpler the better but syntax highlighting is necessary. The bookmarks can either be accessed by their number or their name. ThisComponent returns the last previously active document. If you use ReDim with Preserve, you must use the same data type as specified in the original data field declaration. This chapter provides an overview of the key elements and constructs of the LibreOffice Basic language, as well as the framework in which applications and libraries are oriented to LibreOffice Basic. The text frame is created using the createInstance method of the document object. In addition to simple variables (scalars), LibreOffice Basic also supports arrays (data fields). A corresponding source text can be seen in the previous example. If A is less than 3 (but not equal to zero), then B is assigned the value 1. The structure is further complicated by tables. Therefore, before copying the content from B to A, B has to be converted into A's internal format. The following properties are available in this context in the control elements model: Finally, the control element provides a setFocus method that ensures that the underlying control element receives the focus: A dialog in LibreOffice can have more than one tab page. If there is another line inwards, it marks the transition to a filled area. Since control element forms within the documents are administered like a special drawing element, there is also a, This page was last edited 13:55:11, 2022-12-07 by, Please note that all contributions to The Document Foundation Wiki are considered to be released under the. stands for the decimal point symbol defined by the operating system in the country-specific settings. The XIndexContainer interface provides the insertByIndex and removeByIndex functions. The argument of the method is the position, counted from 0, of the existing page after which the new page will be inserted. Data can either be displayed as 2D or 3D graphics, and the appearance of the chart elements can be individually adapted in a way similar to the process used for drawing elements. If you assign a floating point number to a long integer variable, the number is rounded up or down to the next whole number. The following return values are available in this instance: In the previous example, checking the return values could be as follows: In addition to the information text and the parameter for arranging the information box, MsgBox also permits a third parameter, which defines the text for the box title: If no box title is specified, the default is soffice. Instead, you need to create an array of the points, package this array in a second array (using the Array(Coordinates()) call), and then assign this array to the polygon. A complete list of the paragraph properties can be found in the LibreOffice API reference. It is therefore a simple alternative to configuring dialogs. This code inserts the test.jpg graphic and adapts its appearance using the Adjust properties. The On Error instruction is the key to any error handling: The On Error Goto ErrorHandler line defines how LibreOffice Basic proceeds in the event of an error. A problem may arise if you click on No: the styles will not be updated, and the automatic-update feature will be turned off. In #Cells and Ranges, the following example has the qualifiers in the Case statements written out completely, for clarity. To assign an explicit string to a string variable, enclose the string in quotation marks ("). The values valid there can be found in the relevant VBA documentation. Even though you can use these procedures in any module, it is best to limit their use to two modules. If it does, the method determines a corresponding object reference by using the getByName method and then saves the reference in a variable in Page. Such CellRange objects are created using the getCellRangeByName call of the spreadsheet object: A colon (:) is used to specify a cell range in a spreadsheet document. This is called direct formatting. This example inserts a cells range that is two rows by two columns in size into the second column and row (each bear the number 1) of the first sheet (number 0) in the spreadsheet. Download PDF. The number of elements in an array is not affected if you use Option Base 1, only the start index changes. As a function, CompatibilityMode() returns the Boolean value of the mode. The paragraph properties are available through the com.sun.star.style.ParagraphProperties service. LibreOffice Basic Macro Tutorials StarOffice (Basic) programmer's Tutorial, May 2000 LibreOffice API LibreOffice scripts make use of the LibreOffice API , documentation is available at: api.libreoffice.org OpenOffice.org 3.1 Developer's Guide Developer's Guide new home in LibreOffice wiki ScriptForge Library LibreOffice Programming The interface com.sun.star.sheet.Spreadsheets provides a better method to create a new sheet: insertNewByName. Buy a printed copy. To determine the current cursor position, the following test methods are provided and all return a Boolean value: If a ResultSet has been created with the ResultSetConcurrency = UPDATEABLE value, then its content can be edited. The selection ranges from simple text fields through list and combo boxes to various buttons. For example, to process a mouse click, you may need the screen position where the mouse button was pressed. However, this call does not affect the UNO sequences that are defined through the LibreOffice API whose index always begins with 0. VBA: The path specifications listed in Dir may use the * and? They support the following property: The number of the current page can be inserted in a document using the com.sun.star.text.textfield.PageNumber text field. If a number is not provided, 0 is displayed in its place. The following functions are available in LibreOffice Basic to retrieve the system time and system date: Working with files is one of the basic tasks of an application. Regardless of the type of event, all objects provide access to the relevant control element and its model. The scope of application for LibreOffice Basic begins where the standard functions of LibreOffice end. The recursion levels are set at different levels based on the software platform. More information about the available services, and their interfaces, methods and properties can be found in the reference for the LibreOffice API. SetModuleB is triggered from one toolbar button and ShowVarB is triggered from another toolbar button, then ShowVarB will display a C value of 0 since module variables are reset after each macro completion. The numerical CSng and CDbl conversion functions also accept decimal numbers. Since the drivers are based on UNO components, other drivers can be developed and therefore open up new data sources. To do this, they are converted into their hexadecimal value in the UTF-8 set of characters and are preceded by a percent sign. As the number of these words is initially unknown, you need to be able to subsequently change the field limits. It passes through a complete document and formats the first word of every sentence in bold type. To make an instance of the type actual variables that can be read and stored use the Dim as New statement: As shown in the example below, the Type definition may be written at the start of a module (before the first Sub or Function). This is called indirect formatting. As a result, LibreOffice Basic enables the creation of a variable through simple usage and without an explicit declaration. In the strictest sense of the word, a service in UNO does not support methods, but rather interfaces, which in turn provide different methods. Buy a printed copy. LibreOffice Basic recognizes but ignores this keyword, because this is already the default procedure in LibreOffice Basic. If comments cover several lines, each line must be identified as a comment: A LibreOffice Basic program can contain dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of markers, which are names for variables, constants, functions, and so on. Information about how to create, open, save and print documents is described in #Working with Documents, because it can be used not only for text documents, but also for other types of documents. The object variable created must then be initialized so that it can be used. Apache OpenOffice offers a complete user interface for developing programs in Basic. The following properties are provided for 3D charts at the Diagram object: The following example creates a 3D area chart. The Diagram object provides the following properties to access the grids: The grid object is based on the com.sun.star.chart.ChartGrid service, which in turn supports the line properties of the com.sun.star.drawing.LineStyle support service (refer to #Drawings and Presentations). Anyone who has already worked with these languages can quickly become accustomed to LibreOffice Basic. ThisComponent returns the currently active document. The following example shows how format properties can be edited in LibreOffice. (When listing the service name of a text field, uppercase and lowercase characters should be used in LibreOffice Basic, as in the previous example.). As these control elements are based on the UnoControlEdit Uno service, their program-controlled handling is similar. Regardless of this, the original methods are also available (in our example, getPosition and setPosition). If a ResultSet is a SCROLL_INSENSITIVE or SCROLL_SENSITIVE type, it supports a whole range of methods for navigation in the stock of data. No assurances are, however, provided for whether these can also be used by the object in question. With the aid of Doc, the example then creates an Enumeration object that traverses through the individual parts of the text (paragraphs and tables) and assigns the current element to TextElement object. VBA: LibreOffice Basic does not provide code completion. The functions for writing the HTML file, as well as a test code that checks the font weight of the corresponding text portions and provides paragraph portions in bold type with a corresponding HTML tag, have been added. For example: The DoLoop is not linked to a fixed number of passes. When specifying a service name, it is only the module name which is of any importance because this must be also listed in the name. A TextCursor object is created using the createTextCursor call: The Cursor object created in this way supports the com.sun.star.text.TextCursor service, which in turn provides a whole range of methods for navigating within text documents. The following example formats the B2 cell so that numbers are displayed with three decimal places and use commas as a thousands separator. This includes declaring multi-dimensional data fields and specifying explicit start and end values. LibreOffice forms may contain text fields, list boxes, radio buttons, and a range of other control elements, which are inserted directly in a text or spreadsheet. In LibreOffice, various types of charts can be displayed in a stacked form. getByIndex provides an object with a particular index. All the options specified here are based on the user interface from LibreOffice. The following example searches through all tables of a text document and applies the right-align format to all cells with numerical values by means of the corresponding paragraph property. A single key action on a modification key, such as the Shift key or the Alt key does not create an independent event. To provide an overview of these services, they have been combined into modules. The hasByName, getByName and insertByName methods are obtained from the com.sun.star.container.XNameContainer interface as described in #Introduction to the API. The execute method of the dialog returns the value 0, which is the same as when you click Cancel. LibreOffice is an open source, cross-platform, office suite, made up of six main applications, and lots of other useful stuff. These include bold type and the font type. The outer loop refers to the paragraphs of the text. Note: A space in a local file name therefore, for example, becomes a %20 in the URL. In very rare cases, before calling up some property, use the IsEmpty function to check whether it is actually available. The effect on any particular function is described with that function, below. With the help of this controller object and the model of the control element, it then uses the GetControl method to determine the view (CtlView variable) of the control element form. The simplest variant is a single-color fill. After the call for the ChangeValue function, variable A retains the value 10. It inserts a new sheet with the name specified by the first argument, at the position specified by the second argument. The actual replacement process is finally implemented using the replaceAll method of the document object, which replaces all occurrences of the search expression. You should also note the difference between text and numbers when you use formulas: Although cell A1 contains the value 100 and cell A2 contains the value 1000, the A1+A2 formula returns the value 100. It is called a ReplaceDescriptor and supports the com.sun.star.util.ReplaceDescriptor service. Common pieces of reusable Python or UNO features must be stored in My macros within (User Profile)/Scripts/python/pythonpath. Cells cannot be formatted by column in LibreOffice Basic. You can also create data sources and work with them using LibreOffice Basic. The fourth variant is the option of projecting existing graphics into the fill area. its spell checker, forms designer, and charting tools). It permits high level access to databases, regardless of the underlying database backends. Note: Note: Until Basic encounters the End With statement, it looks for partly-qualified names: names that begin with a period (unary dot-operator). The Val function is different from the Csng, Cdbl and Cstr methods. Before a text file is accessed, it must first be opened. The code used in this example creates a Doc object that references the current presentation document and establishes the associated presentation object. The following example combines two drawing objects: This code creates a rectangle and a circle and inserts them into a page. Example declarations of currency variables: The handling of Basic Currency type is not reliable. This defines what LibreOffice searches for in a document. The Environ function returns the environmental variables of the operating system. LibreOffice provides the queryKey and addNew methods so that you can access existing number formats as well as create your own number formats. The real API call is: Sheet.getColumns.getByIndex(1). Documents can also be created, opened and imported using this service. For Each loops do not use an explicit counter like a ForNext loop does. LibreOffice Basic supports Modules and Libraries. It supports the following properties: The name of the current chapter is available through a text field of the com.sun.star.text.textfield.Chapter type. LibreOffice Developer's Guide: Chapter 11 - LibreOffice Basic < Documentation | DevGuide Contents 1 First Steps with LibreOffice Basic 1.1 Step By Step Tutorial 1.2 Creating a Module in a Standard Library 1.3 Writing and Debugging a Basic UNO program 1.4 Calling a Sub from the User Interface 1.5 Creating Dialogs 1.6 Adding Event Handlers The com.sun.star.frame.XStorable interface, which is responsible for saving documents. LibreOffice Basic then interprets the following line as a regular instruction again. In addition to linking individual lines, in LibreOffice Basic you can use colons to divide one line into several sections, so that there is enough space for several expressions. In accordance with UNO philosophy, an Obj is described as a reference to an object which supports the com.sun.star.frame.Desktop service. The Diagram object provides the following properties to access the axes: The axis objects of a LibreOffice chart support the com.sun.star.chart.ChartAxis service. The lengths are specified in hundredths of a millimeter. Text fields can be inserted in a text document using the same methods as those used for other TextContent objects: The example inserts a text field with the current date at the start of the current text document. Many of the styles that are described are also available for text documents. However, as a result, the same character value can represent different characters in different languages. In addition to direct formatting, you can also format text using templates. This event is also used for notifying requests for a popup context menu on the control. The only way to have a fixed page name is to rename the page, by the user interface or by programming. This is used to define a gradient that specifies the transparency of a fill area. Every control element has its own name that can be queried using the following model property: You can specify the title that appears in the title bar of a dialog with the following model property: You can query the size and position of a control element using the following properties of the model object: To ensure platform independence for the appearance of dialogs, LibreOffice uses the Map AppFont (ma) internal unit to specify the position and size within dialogs. The second section addresses more complex editing functions, such as grouping, rotating, and scaling objects. You can access individual pages either through their number or their name. They are suitable for binary specifications that can only adopt one of two statuses. They are listed in the source text without a comma separating the thousand figure: The numbers can be preceded by both a plus (+) or minus (-) sign (with or without a space in between): When you type a decimal number, use a period (.) VBA: In VBA, RmDir produces an error message if a directory contains a file. For example, you can define an array to contain all the words in a text that begin with the letter A. This status arises, for example, when querying the bold type property of a paragraph, which includes both words depicted in bold and words depicted in normal font. Issue 31001 Issue 54049 Issue 91121 Issue 107277 are still not corrected. You will find a range of examples which use these methods in the following sections. Note: The actual object form can be accessed through the Forms list at the drawing level. Basic can handle both methods like a property Name. Information about a pressed key is provided by the event object that LibreOffice Basic supplies to the procedure for event handling. This includes the interfaces and services for creating, opening, saving, converting, and printing documents and for template administration. The legend has a gray background color, is placed at the bottom of the chart, and has a character size of 7 points. The following program code shows how the Step value in event handlers of the Next and Prev buttons can be increased or reduced and changes the status of the buttons. RectangleShape.CharWeight = com.sun.star.awt.FontWeight.BOLD The procedure for defining page formats differs from other forms of formatting. Charts are not treated as independent documents in LibreOffice, but as objects that are embedded in an existing document. In VBA, the function also returns the names of the standard files so that further checking is needed to retrieve the directories only. This chapter describes how to control the relevant services, methods and properties of spreadsheet documents: The first section addresses the basic structure of spreadsheet documents and shows you how to access and to edit the contents of individual cells. Example declarations of double variables: Currency variables differ from the other variable types by the way they handle values. In addition to the standard control elements, a table control element is also available for forms, which enables the complete incorporation of database tables. It converts a string into a number; however it always expects a period to be used as the decimal point symbol. The example first creates a document object for the text that has just been opened. VBA: If a string in LibreOffice Basic contains a non-numerical value and if this is assigned to a number, LibreOffice Basic does not produce an error message, but stops converting the string at the first invalid character. The return value of a function can be any type. LibreOffice provides various ways of establishing database connections. The inner loop processes the paragraph portions in these paragraphs. Note - VBA : Compatibility between OpenOffice.org Basic and VBA relates to the OpenOffice.org Basic language as well as the runtime library. In a similar way to the search window, the settings needed for a search can be set in the SearchDescriptor object. While test functions exist for checking numbers, date details and arrays in LibreOffice Basic, a corresponding function for checking Boolean values does not exist. Instead, to simplify code maintenance and troubleshooting, you should create another procedure to serve as an entry point for event handling - even if it only executes a single call to the target procedure. This data field is then initialized with the values to be set and assigned the Printer property. These are presented in detail in the #Introduction to the LibreOffice API. XML-based files can be opened and edited with other programs. If you click a button that has this property set to the value of 1, the dialog is closed, and the Execute method of the dialog returns the value 1 (dialog sequence has been ended correctly). This section describes four services and in each instance the sample program code uses a rectangle shape element that combines several types of formatting. LibreOffice Basic returns the name of the first directory entry found. For example, in the following variable declaration, MyVar1 becomes a variant and MyVar2 becomes an integer: The following sections list the variable types that are available in LibreOffice Basic and describe how they can be used and declared. You can, for example, highlight a certain word within a text using bold type or center a line. Internally, LibreOffice Basic saves the associated Unicode value for every character. Several TextCursor objects can even be opened for the same document and used in various positions, which are independent of one another. Note: The variable RangeAddress determines the assigned cell range whose data will be displayed within the chart. In LibreOffice Basic, you can use object parameters to provide more information about an event to a procedure, for example: The structure and properties of the Event object depend on the type of event that triggers the procedure call. Some DOS-specific file and directory functions are no longer provided in LibreOffice, or their function is only limited. The following example creates an object that references the top left cell and inserts a text in the cell: In addition to numerical coordinates, each cell in a sheet has a name, for example, the top left cell (0,0) of a spreadsheet is called A1. You can also declare type-specific variables in an array. The simplest scenario is for the button to trigger a When Initiating event when it is clicked by a user.
