 |
|
Hi,
I'd like to be able to click on a button inside one page of a draw document, and make it force a different page of the same document to the user's focus. I've used Xray to look at the properties of form and forms() but can't see anything like .focus or .show which is what I would expect to be available. Any ideas?
Thanks. |

Hi
try this
| Code: | theTarget = thiscomponent.drawpages.getByName("TheTargetSheet")
thiscomponent.currentcontroller.select(theTarget)
|
where "TheTargetSheet" is the name of your sheet

Thanks for that. It crashes star office, but you lead me to the following which does work as expected. I've reported the crash as a bug because it should handle it gracefully.
| Code: |
dim oTarget as Object
oTarget = ThisComponent.getDrawPages().getByName("PA")
ThisComponent.currentcontroller.setFocus(oTarget)
ThisComponent.currentcontroller.setCurrentPage(oTarget)
|
If you don't do the setFocus, then the next line crashes star office |

I disagree. I tested it on OOo 1.1.4 and 1.9.130 on Windows XP and it works without the setFocus.
| Code: | dim oTarget as Object
oTarget = ThisComponent.getDrawPages().getByName("PA")
ThisComponent.currentcontroller.tCurrentPage = oTarget |
I use this sort of code in my add-on MultiPages

| My system is substantially different. StarOffice evaluation 2.0 inside Linux personality realm running on Unixware. It would be interesting to find out if its stable on other systems. |
