This script was published by kilorun and at the OpenOffice Basic, Python, BeanShell, JavaScript Forum.
kilorun wanted to develop a Python macro embedded in a Calc document to scrape data from various web pages and paste some results in cells in the spreadsheet.
It worked, but when starting the first version of the macro, we had wait until the macro has finished before seeing the results.
It has now been fixed with the following code:
Original code
import time def myTest3(): oDoc = XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDocument() oSheets = oDoc.getSheets() mySheet = oSheets.getByName("Sheet1") # set up Status Indicator Controller = oDoc.getCurrentController() DocFrame = Controller.getFrame() oStatusIndicator = DocFrame.createStatusIndicator() oStatusIndicator.start( "", 1 ) mySheet.getColumns().removeByIndex(0, 1) oStatusIndicator.setText( "Process started" ) for i in range(0,5): oStatusIndicator.setText( "Processing: " + str(i) ) mySheet.getCellByPosition(0,i).Value = i time.sleep(1) oStatusIndicator.setText( "Process finished" )
