Hi,
I was able to get most of the code working, but am running into a few issues.
Here is the code:
my $c = ooDocument(file => $filename, member => 'content', create => 'text');
my $s = ooDocument(file => $c, member => 'styles');
my $layout = $s->pageLayout("Standard");
my $master = $s->createMasterPage("NewStylePage",layout=>$layout);
my $header = $s->createParagraph("",style=>"Header");
$s->appendElement($header,$s->textField("title"));
$s->extendText($header,chr(160) x 30);
$s->appendElement($header,$s->textField("chapter"));
$s->masterPageExtension($master,"header",$header);
my $footer = $s->createParagraph("- ",style=>"Footer");
$s->appendElement($footer,$s->textField("page-number"));
$s->extendText($footer,' -');
$s->masterPageExtension($master,"footer",$footer);
This worked great so far.
One problem, I can't seem to get the page-number to center.
I tried updateStyle, and tried creating a new style, but it doesn't seem to apply.
The header is working okay, but I would like to change it into a 1x2 Table,
with border only on the bottom (maybe thickness 2), cell 1 left-justified, and cell 2 right-justified. I tried append table, but that didn't work. What would be the best way to go about this.
This last question deals with setPageBreak.
Currently, I have it working on Heading 1 and Heading 3, but I see an error msg when its executed. The breaks do occur, just wondering if the syntax is correct.
my $p = $c->appendParagraph(text=>$cat, style=>"Heading 1");
$c->setPageBreak($p,style=>'Heading 1',page=>"NewStylePage");
[OpenOffice::OODoc::Styles::createStyle] Style Heading 1 exists
[OpenOffice::OODoc::Document::setPageBreak] Style Heading 1 creation failure
[OpenOffice::OODoc::Styles::createStyle] Style Heading 3 exists
[OpenOffice::OODoc::Document::setPageBreak] Style Heading 3 creation failure
I tried using a different name, but the style didn't exist.
Does this mean I should create a style 'xyz' just for page breaks?
Can the page break attribute be applied to Heading1 and Heading3 styles?
Lastly, is there a manual or doc site that has more examples setting attributes and styles?
The module works great so far. My wife thanks you - I'm able to automate database entries into a document for her now. Saves her hours of formatting and layout. Thanks! :)
Thanks,
Rich
