Revision as of 15:01, 16 January 2009

Here are the features and enhancements, which were integrated in OOo 3.1. All the listed issues are announced in the release notes for the developer snapshots since DEV300m29 - build ID 9339 - to DEV300mX. These list is more technical orientated and isn't a release note for OOo 3.1. This list could and should be used for testing and checking the new features in general or for translation purposes.

What's new ?

Component : Database Access (Base)

  • 66628 : [RFE] forms should have a possibility to selectively reload list boxes
    • Description : In the form navigation toolbar (the one used as soon as you have an alive form filled from a database), there's a new item, called "Refresh Control", located right after the "Refresh" item. ...
    • Feature Announcement : http://dba.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=224
    • Specification : --
    • Test case specification : --
    • CWS : dba31a integrated in DEV300m30


  • 81899 : Allow system-wide configuration of JDBC classes
    • Description : There's a new setting in the org.openoffice.Office.DataAccess configuration module which allows to specify, on a per-driver basis, a classpath to use when searching for a JDBC driver.
    • Feature Announcement : http://dba.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=225
    • Specification : --
    • Test case specification : --
    • CWS : dba31a integrated in DEV300m30


  • 91208 : parameters not recognized in function argument list
    • Description : With the integration of CWS dba31a, OOo's parser will have the ability to recognize parameters in function argument lists. That is, a query like SELECT CONCAT( :C, "name" ) FROM "name" will now, when executed, properly present the dialog asking the user for parameter value input.
    • Feature Announcement : http://dba.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=226
    • Specification : --
    • Test case specification : --
    • CWS : dba31a integrated in DEV300m30


  • 91223 : RFE: allow (yet) more convenient access in (Basic) code to open a form/report
    • Description : (Strictly, this is an "API client feature announcement", but we don't have a features@api.openoffice.org, do we?)

Programmatic access to forms/reports contained in database documents is (with the integration of CWS dba31a) easier than ever before: 

 ThisDatabaseDocument.FormComponents.getByName( "form name" ).open will open the form "form name" in the very same way a double-click onto the form in the document UI would do, i.e. doing all the proper knittings to the document UI.


Component : Chart




Component : Drawing

  • 28526 : Allow anti-aliasing of drawing objects


  • 89661 : Giving text objects a discernible selection border
    • Description : Text objects are extremely hard to move with the mouse, as a four-pixel wide invisible line has to be hit - even harder, when they are rotated. Based on a patch provided by THB which needed quite some tweaks, text objects from DrawingLayer now use the same hatched border as during edit mode. This also expands the hit area for selecting a text object. Thus, two goals are targeted here for software ergonomic: ...
    • Feature Announcement : http://graphics.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=214

    • Test case specification :
    • CWS : aw058 integrated in DEV300m36


  • 95646 : Unify DrawObject modification with full attributes
    • Description : Unify DrawObject modification with full attributes. Interaction with DrawObjects will now show enhanced interaction visualization to provide an ergonomically better feedback for the user. Instead of wire frame visualization there will now be shown a transparent interaction preview on top of the current display whenever possible. This will be the defualt from now. This will work an all Applications using Drawing Objects from the DrawingLayer. This is done for Object Creation and for all Object Modifications (Move, scale, shear, mirror, distort, etc...). ...
