Hello,
I would like to execute the command "findAll" in a Javascript Macro. In
Basic, one can access thisComponent and access its findAll method (See [1])
However, the exposed Javascript API does not have thisComponent. I tried
importClass(Packages.com.sun.star.frame.XDesktop)
var currentComp = XDesktop.getCurrentComponent()
to get the current document (as described in [2]) but it failed
silently [3].
I also tried
var desktop = XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDesktop();
var comp = desktop.getCurrentComponent();
…which gives me something, but that returned object does not have the
findAll-Method.
How to run findAll() in a JS Macro?
Kind regards,
Jan

console. Whyever.
