Writer: text position

[danibs]

Hi @mikekaganski, scenario is:

• select text between { and }
• highlight the text changing the font, the background, …
• if { and } are not in the same container it means that there are a missing { or } => error
  • for example {is in the body and } is in the header
• in the macro I added some constant (for now) and user can decide to set constant so to exclude of highlighting for: body, header/footer, cell (of table)
  • if the table is in the header and user want to exclude header/footer, I need to know that the founded text in cell is (or not is) of a table that is in the header/footer

You didn’t provide a sample document with macros, so just guessing…

@danibs

if { and } are not in the same container it means that there are a missing { or } => error

This is exactly the case of the topmost XText instances being unequal. No matter what their implementation names are - even when the names are equal, the objects themselves may be different - e.g., different headers.

@danibs

in the macro I added some constant (for now) and user can decide to set constant so to exclude of highlighting for: body, header/footer, cell (of table)

If one wants to exclude headers and footers, then just check that the topmost XText is the same as returned from the component’s Text property.

This is the code:

I will try your suggestions and, in case, update my code (or I will make some more questions )
Thanks
