Description rvojta 2008-05-23 11:29:04 UTC
My goal is to remove text frames hardcoded formatting and replace it
with styles (frame width and horizontal position in my case, Java
extension). So, when I change frame width and horizontal position (in
frame style), all affected frames will be changed too. I tried
following things ...

a) call setPropertyToDefault( ... ) on all HoriOrient* properties

b) copy HoriOrient* property values from frame style directly to text
frame (to synchronize them) and call setPropertyToDefault( ... )

... and it doesn't work (yes, the correct style is applied to this
frame). There's still DIRECT_VALUE instead of DEFAULT_VALUE = still
hardcoded. Should I treat text frames in another way? Because when I
try this on simple text with setPropertyToDefault( "CharWeight" ) for
example, hardcoded formatting is removed and DIRECT_VALUE is switched
to DEFAULT_VALUE = style is followed.

I had a look at the code in unoframe.cxx. This code handling your case looks
like it has been designed to do nothing. Please file an issue for this. Oliver

What's it for?Is there any advantage or disadvantage between text frames 
hardcoded formatting and styles?
Comment 3 rvojta 2008-05-27 15:51:41 UTC
When do you use styles, you can change position of frames (with the same style
applied) in one step - just modify text frame style settings. Otherwise
(hardcoded formatting), you have to change position for each frame, which is not
effective and not preffered way.
