mouseMotionListener

Hi Gerard,

I have good and bad news.

The bad news is that

a) the DrawingDocumentDrawView has indeed changed its
XWindow interface 
to optional in version 1.7 of the DrawingDocumentView.idl on
2002/12/03,

b) the DrawController that implements this service dropped
the support 
for the XWindow interface in version 1.17 of 
sd/source/ui/view/DrawController.cxx on 2006/03/21,

c) there is currently no good way to obtain a reference to
the Draw or 
Impress document window.


The reason for b) was the introduction of the slide sorter
pane and task 
pane and the necessary reorganization of the underlying
framework.  One 
result was that the document window is exchanged (almost)
every time the 
  user switches to another view and a large part of the
DrawController 
implementation is exchanged as well.  All in all it was
difficult to 
provide at all times the correct XWindow reference and deal
with the 
problem that references to XWindows can be kept after the
underlying 
window has already been destroyed.



The good news is that that change was just the first step. 
I am 
currently finishing a child work space that will provide a
Draw and 
Impress specific framework that will provide easy access to
the windows 
of all panes.  With this it will be very easy for you to
obtain a 
reference to the document window of the center pane and
register as 
MouseMotionListener.  It will be hopefully just a matter of
a few weeks 
until the child work space will be integrated.



I hope this helps and am sorry for the inconvenience,

Andre

Hi Andre,

I tried again to use MouseMotionListener with OO.o 2.1 but
it still 
doesn't work. Is there any news about solving this problem.
