Macro not wrking after 5.x - stops at uno:ColumnWidth

users
#1

Hi there,

I have a macro that was working since LO 3.3 days, but after upgrading to
5.x series it fails at a line wich is meant to adjust a column width:

dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:ColumnWidth", "", 0, args2())

I assume the function has been deprecated and/or replaced with something
else...

What code should I use insted?

Thanks in advance.
HQ.

Hi,

that is bug https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107806

I have not thought about a workaround.

Kind regards

@Regina,

Thank you for the reply!

From your bug report I understand that, as a workaround, I could downgrade

to 5.2.x and my macro will (at leat probably) run again.

Is that correct?

TIA

Yes, version 5.2.7 act the old way. But I would not "downgrade" but I would make an administrative installation or use a portable version. On which operating system do you work?

Kind regards

JFYI, I dowgraded to 5.2.7 but the problems seems to persist.
I did it in a hurry so I need to look deeper to confirm it and eventually
test previous versions (portable ones this time :confused: )

I´ll post back when I have something solid to share.

Regards.

For the record, and in case this helps someone else:

1) I downgraded further to version 5.2.5 and the macro is working again.

2) After I downgraded to 5.2.5 I realized there are two LibreOffice profiles
in this PC, and when I was testing 5.2.7 I was restoring my macros file in
the wrong one. So I think the macro will probably work fine in both 5.2.5
and 5.2.7 (not in the 5.3 series)

Thank you Regina for pointing me in the right direction.

Best regards.
HQ.
