Hi,

Very nice! I have already defined some tooltips to get information on OpenOffice documents

Just one small hint: I may not be a good idea to use the units as some sort of categorization. I would suggest to keep it flat.

Thanks for the new plugin for TC.
It could also work for older versions of OO

Is it possible to add additional info like: generator, subject, title, keywords, etc.?

What does mean <default> for statistic?

No categorization for statistics? Why, It looks good?

For what versions? Can you give me sample file?

Is it possible to add additional info like: generator, subject, title, keywords, etc.?

Edit: Generator/subject/title - yes, keywords - can you give me sample file with keywords?

What does mean <default> for statistic?

Nothing - this is auto-added by TC.
"Default" means unit #0.

As djk pointed out the default value is useless.
In addition you are not able to add units for your fields.
How to search for a certain value in the statistics field?


Will you add a fulltext search? That would be great!
( I know there is a workaround but a content plugin would much better here )

But I don't need them.

You mean in Alt-F7? Well, no problem, search dialog can specify "Unit" field.

Will you add a fulltext search? That would be great!

Yes, in the next versions.
But I need to handle UTF-8 strings, currently I don't know how to do it in Delphi...

Yes but you are using the units as fields. A content plugin that behaves like no other is quite confusing!

2Alextp
I've sent you the files.

2djk
Thanks, I see.
Also I see that OpenOffice 1.0 format (SXW SXC...) is almost the same zipped XML, so I'll add support for it too.

Nice to hear it

Is there a plugin to view OpenOffice documents in lister or ctrl+Q?

[Alextp]

2JP
Currently - no.
But you may view them with a little change by using IEView. You need to change a little content.xml file inside document.

Could you explain how to modify it?

My translation of this message from forum.wincmd.ru:

How to view OpenOffice files with IEView

1. Open file with ZIP archiver
2. Extract content.xml from it
3. Put to the same folder file sxw-html.xsl (must be in archive)
4. Open content.xml in any text editor, that supports UTF-8
5. After first line
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
insert line:
<?xml-stylesheet href="sxw-html.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
6. Open content.xml in Mozilla and see document, only without formatting, but with titles, paragraphs, tables and lists.

If you remove second "line" (all file is placed in one line):
<!DOCTYPE office:document-content PUBLIC "-//OpenOffice.org//DTD OfficeDocument 1.0//EN" "office.dtd">
then file will be also viewed in IEView.
