Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 19119
headless or invisible option desactivate later macro calls
Last modified: 2005-05-23 16:41:53 UTC
I start OOo like this: soffice -invisible & Then I call a macro, which creates a new doc. soffice macro:///OOTools.PDF.TestPDFExport -invisible But the document is not generated. If the first call is made without invisible, then the second call is correctly executed. The same problem appears with headless. I also try to play with the quickstart option, but without any success. Regards, Alain V. PS: I also try with SO 6.1 Beta 2, which has the same behavior
Starting macros and -invisible are both framework issues, not API issues.
.
@CD: is this something we already checked?
The described behavior is correct, as "-invisible" and "-headless" are designed to set OOo into server mode. This means that a normal user shouldn't be able to influence the Office, which is possible if we would process documents or macro URLs on the command line! Please use the command line argument "-nodefault" to accomplish your task.
