sort by color

edit

I try to do as the above comment but cannot, Could you please do it by youtube, if possible ?

You can try with something like this...

function bgcolor()
total=2556

for I=1 To total

   s=ThisComponent.sheets.getbyname("Sheet1")
   cell=s.getCellRangeByName("A"&I)
   bgcolor=cell.cellBackColor   
   dest=s.getCellRangeByName("O"&I)
   dest.String=bgcolor

next I

end function

Where total is the length of the column A..

The column A is the origin and O is the destination column ...

Sheet1 is the name of the "Working sheet"

I know it's the simplest code of the world,but it works ...

Same problem as @Nissim. To solve it replace first line:

s=thiscomponent.getcurrentcontroller.sheets.getbyname("Sheet1")

With:

s=ThisComponent.sheets.getbyname("Sheet1")

Instructions poor. Do you enter '=BGCOLOR(CELL("COL",A1),CELL("ROW",A1)) where A1 is the target cell." in another column and drag down

where do you enter the macro.

I got this error:

LibreOffice 3.5 BASIC runtime error: property or method not found: sheets.

Here's one way. Add a macro function that returns a cell's background color as a number. Add a new column filled with that function that addresses the target background-colored cells. Sort on the numbers in the new column (use Ctrl-Shift-F9 to recalculate all functions before sorting. Be sure to include Option/Formats in the sort)

The auxilliary column contains the formula =BGCOLOR(CELL("COL",A1),CELL("ROW",A1)) where A1 is the target cell.

function bgcolor(col,row)
  rem # Returns background color of addressed cell
  s=thiscomponent.getcurrentcontroller.sheets.getbyname("Sheet1")
  cell=s.getcellbyposition(col-1,row-1)
  bgcolor=cell.cellBackColor
end function
