Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10301
TextFieldMaster.User enhancement for storing variables (xml)
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:21 UTC
Request: A TextField for storing (xml) strings in text documents, whose displayed content can be set arbitrarily. TextFieldMaster.User allows to specify a "value" of type double (purpose?), a "content" of type string which is the displayed value and a boolean. Would it be difficult to extend this by a variable "hiddenContent" of type string. This way applications could store variables in the document and display them in the form the user decides. e.g. the string would be something like: <pd><name>John Smith</name><initials>JS</initials></pd> At first insertion by the application the document would show only "John Smith". After a switch the application would be able to go through all the variables and exchange the shown value to the initials "JS". Or whatever a different application would want to decide to store and display. This would be very flexible. You could further enhance the flexibility by providing a "changable" boolean field - if the user himself is able to change the displayed string and a "plugin" string field, which leads to a notification of a registered plugin/application if the user clicks the field. Hope I did not ask for too much, Ido Tamir
not an api issue - how did you get this idea?
