Hi all,
as mentioned in the ESC meeting, I'm working on implementing attribute
table:embedded-number-behavior="integer" of element <table:sort> in ODF.
The current state is now in
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/191159
so that you can see, what I want to do.
There are these problems, where I need assistance:
A
The test UITest_sort fails now, because the object
class="GtkCheckButton" id="naturalsort" no longer exists. It is replaced
with an object class="GtkComboBoxText" id="numberbehaviorlb".
Effected are the files tdf99773.py, tdf99208.py, tdf99627.py,
tdf95192.py, tdf49531.py and naturalSort.py. I do not know Python, but I
could try to change the files, if I get a template how to access the
"GtkComboBoxText" and its entries. I think, relevant is the position of
the selected entry not its value, because the value is translatable.
How can I run the tests on Windows/Cygwin ?
B
I work on Windows 11. I have in the meantime installed Glade in the WSL
with Ubuntu. But I have no experience with Glade and my try to use it
didn't work well. Thus I have made the changes directly in the .ui file
using an editor. So it would be really good if you have a look at the
file and tell me what I have to change or add. I have seen some
accessibility related things in the file, for example, but do not know
what and where accessibility things are needed.
C
I have used the ODF terms as items in the drop-down list. But those are
likely not usable for end-users. Do you have suggestions? Is is possible
to have a tooltip for each item or only for the whole drop-down list?
D
Do you agree with my suggestion to use a drop-down list? Or should it be
a radio-button group (if possible with Glade), for example, or something
else?
The patch is marked as WIP because besides all the problems mentioned
here, Cppunit tests are missing.
Kind regards,
Regina
