Trying to use LO Basic macro to change value of List Box in LO Base form. The ListBox is on a grid control on the form.
short problem: when I change the .SelectedValue = newvalue, it does not change the list. This operation does change the .currentvalue (can see this by printing), whch when queried on other lines with saved values, returns the list value. However, the form is not actually refreshing or recognizing the list position when I change it. I tried .refresh, but that did not seem to do anything.
to get started:
dim new_val
dim frm, ofForm, oControl
frm = ThisComponent.Drawpage.Forms
ofForm = frm.getByName("MyForm")
oControl = ofForm.GetByName("MainForm_Grid")
looking for the ListBox equivalent of :
oControl.GetByName("text1").text = new_val
tried:
oControl.GetByName("list1").SelectedValue = new_val
this sort of worked, because when I then
print oControl.GetByName("list1").currentvalue
it returns new_val, which suggests the operation was successful.
However, on the actual form, the new_val was not saved or displayed, remained blank, no effect.
May be a bug, or I may be missing something.
