What event on what object should I attach my GUI object retrieval code to?

[leeand00]

I have a function that loads up references to GUI objects in a LibreOffice Base Form, and I was wondering which of these events (on the form?) I should attach it to if the rest of the code on the page depends upon references to these GUI objects.

' This method gets run when the page is loaded.
Sub Init()
  Doc = ThisComponent
  TheForm = Doc.DrawPage.Forms.GetByName("Form")
 
  CbBoxFeature = TheForm.getByName("CbBoxFeature")
  CbBoxDESPName = TheForm.getByName("CbBoxDESPName")
  cbUpdateToState = TheForm.getByName("cbUpdateToState")
  txtDetails = TheForm.getByName("txtDetails")
  lblStatus = TheForm.getByName("lblStatus")
End Sub

Here is my form loading code.

Hi leeand00

Did you ever figure this out? I think I have the same challenge. I wanna do stuff from a macro upon form load. For example when attaching this to a button action:

Sub Macro_stuff (oEv as object)
    oEv.source.model.Refresh
    >or other stuff here<
End sub

But when assigning that macro to the “When loading” event on form, oEv object does not seem to be instantiated to anything useful. I tried “Xray oEv” too.
Is there another work-around maybe?

Thanks in advance
