Drawing in calc

Hi again,

could you please direct, where can I find some brief description how to handle graphics/drawing in Calc (Macro - Basic) ?

I am trying to make some graphic representations of variable data, binding redrawing to change event of "input" cells, using either several Calc's graphic objects or just simply drawing bitmap in some array and sending it as a picture.

However I can't find the key functions, when I record a macro doing something with drawings and try to run it, nothing will happen. Examples from guides I found doesn't work.

(I've started using OpenOffice today, so I'm kinda newbie in it Embarassed

)

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I'm really stuck on this, I've ran trough the guides and found nothing useful.

What might work is ".uno:InsertDraw" command, however it needs user interaction so it is probably useless.

I've found pretty good function reference in "StarOffice 8 Basic", however drawing doesn't seem to work in my OO 2.4.1.

Is there any way how to control drawing from macro ?
