Hi Doug,
Thank your for evaluating our product, I think it will match your needs
as all our customers.
There is no specific order to create table or other elements.
All you need is to create your template, and add the "green and grey
things".
The "green and grey things" are standard OpenOffice fields (script and
user field),
the Addon is not required. The addon is just a small tool to create them
in one click.
Be aware that the addon has a known issue with OO3, it will not create
the "green things" at the
right location (its content is correct), it will be fixed soon.
For tables, a JODScript is created for a row: <forEach items="myItems"
var="item" element="table-row"/>
and the cell contents are Input Fields with: item.get(0)
In this example, myItems is declared as a List<List<String>> in you
java code.
You can use iterators or other collections for items. The possibilities
are huge because all the fields are javascript or any scriptengine
(OGNL, Java, etc...)
For complex or specific usage of the library, commercial support is
available and very reactive.
Regards,
Guillaume
Hi there,
I've been evaluating your document this morning. Initially it looked
good, and we were pleased with the results.
But we think we're going to have to drop it because we can't find any
information on how to create and manage new templates.
I have the add-on installed, and am trying to create a fairly simple
writer document containing tables, with data that will be populated
from a Java program. However its not straightforward to create
tables, and seems to require a specific order. Can you help before
we're forced to drop the product?
many thanks,
Doug
