Controls are loosing their position even if they are move protected
confirming still present in latest internal build Spreadsheet problem. Changing component, owner and QA contact accordingly. Niklas, this does not only happen for buttons, but for other shape types, too (I tried an ordinary rectangular shape). now really changing QA contact If you change the anchor from "at cell" to "at page" via the GUI it
seems to work ...
But I can't find the Property "AnchorType" for a calc document (to
change it via macro) ...
For a writer document, you can change the anchor with
oControlShape.setPropertyValue("AnchorType",
com.sun.star.text.TextContentAnchorType.AT_PAGE)
regards
Oliver
A drawing object that is anchored to a cell has its position updated when cells are moved, even if the position is protected. This is supposed to be that way. When the cells are collapsed and expanded again, the objects have lost their position because an obejct's anchor cell isn't really stored anywhere, but simulated using the object's position. This can't be changed with the current drawing layer implementation, so I'll mark the issue as resolved/later. Hi Niklas, so as a workaround I anchor the objects to the drawpage ... But I can't find the Property "AnchorType" for a Control in a calc document ... Can this be fixed soon ? (cause I wrote a sub to create controls at runtime, the problem is now, that I can't anchor them to the page, so they will lose their positions :-( ... best regards Oliver Target OOoLater instead of status resolved/later. Hi, this issue is still valid for oo 2.0.2 rc1 ... Oliver *** Issue 75868 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** As the creator of the issue 75868, I strongly encourage the reading of my synopsis and its follow-ups, as well as the related issue 76776. I consider it a major problem as it affects formulas, pictures, shapes, just about anything I tested. It changes both size and position of these objects, whether their size and/or position is protected or not. It affects the two major OS (linux and win32) and all app versions (until 2.2 at least). Looks like a huge usability problem for me, if you rely on finding objects inserted into Calc cells in places you left them. The comment in related issue 8303 considering target milestone is *NOT* funny. Is there any other error anywhere in OO.org that is that serious and was celebrating it's fourth birthday last year already? Please change the OS to all, as it was observed on Win2k, WinXP and a multitude of GNU/Linux distributions. BTW isn't this a "formatting" subcomponent issue, rather than "UI"? It does wreck havoc in my thesis' formatting and really has nothing to do with UI, rather the philosophy of object anchoring as stated in issue 8303. issue verified in OO 3.1 - setting target to 3.2 cmc is working on a patch for this issue adjusting target Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". |
