<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hello everybody, <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> I’m working in an Eclipse project called Papyrus (<a href="https://eclipse.org/papyrus/">https://eclipse.org/papyrus/</a> ) which needs to provide table editor to edit UML models. Currently we are using the NatTable
widget (<a href="https://www.eclipse.org/nattable/">https://www.eclipse.org/nattable/</a> ). This widget is very powerful, but each year our users ask us to customize it more in order to look like well known spreadsheets. That’s why I just join this forum
to ask some questions. Here I will give you a list of the main features used in NatTable and for which I would like to know if they already exist in Calc and if there is an API (in Java ?) to drive them:
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:35.4pt"><span lang="EN-US">- Customize the cell appearance with CSS<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:35.4pt"><span lang="EN-US">- Manage the cell contents<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:35.4pt"><span lang="EN-US">- Manage the cell access (read-only or read-write)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:35.4pt"><span lang="EN-US">- Declare custom cell editors (or dialogs) on cells to edit their contents<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:35.4pt"><span lang="EN-US">- Show/hide columns or rows (not a deletion)
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:35.4pt"><span lang="EN-US">- Display data as a tree in a column (with expanding, collapsing and hiding intermediate row without to hide its children)
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In addition, I would like to know if the toolbars and the menus can be customized and hidden easily.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Concerning the cell management, in the NatTable widget we proceed in 2 steps :
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">- One step to declare the cell contents : we declare the java object represented by the cell. It is not a string at this level, it is a java object, like a list, a Boolean, an integer, …)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">- The second step calls a LabelProvider which returns the text to display for the given object<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Is it the same kind of process in Calc or it is only a text management ?
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">So, to resume, my main question concerns the customization capabilities of Calc to manipulate its behavior programmatically.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">At the end, please, could you indicate me where I can found developer documentation about Calc and its API.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
