Today's Activity

Add extended tip to dimension lines tab page for preview
Olivier Hallot: + Interesting tip: right click to reduce, left click to enlarge preview

add FilterOptions to ODF export
Caolán McNamara: support Json string here like pdf export does.

tdf#136663 sw: Remove extra spacing between Hangul and non-CJK scripts

Yesterday's Activity

tdf#133976 implement a progress/status update during export
Noel Grandin: which makes the export seem less tedious, and has the nice side effect of making the UI not seem to have hung.

Update external/cairo/cairo/Wincompatible-pointer-types.patch.0

tdf#168599: don't create Any from a direct reference to an interface
Mike Kaganski: An overlook from commit 3cb0678a9cac9a681903b5a082d1c5dd5f25f665 (fix dodgy DrawController::fireChangeLayer code, 2025-03-05). This goes through this ctor: template <typename T> inline Any::Any( T const & value ) { ::uno_type_any_construct( this, const_cast<T *>(&value), ::cppu::getTypeFavourUnsigned(&value).getTypeLibType(), cpp_acquire ); } which gets a valid type for the value (typelib_TypeClass_INTERFACE), and then uses a raw pointer in uno_type_any_construct.

Add more document types to .gitattributes
Mike Kaganski: Marking binary document types as such prevents errors that I see locally, like $ git log -S getWordCompatibilityMode E: unsupported filetype sw/qa/uitest/data/tdf168070_2.docx fatal: unable to read files to diff This also speeds up the search. RTF files are marked 'diff', because they could in theory be considered plaintext markup; maybe marking them also binary would be better.

Rust Bindings: Use typed parameters instead of void* in UNO bindings
Mohamed Ali: Replace generic void* parameters with proper types (strings, primitives, structs) for better type safety and more idiomatic Rust code.

Rust Bindings: Add rustmaker (Rust codemaker)
Mohamed Ali: The rustmaker provides comprehensive support for converting UNO type definitions into idiomatic Rust code with proper memory safety and type system integration.

Rust Bindings: Add extension-based UNO integration with FFI architecture
Mohamed Ali: Implements LibreOffice extension providing Rust language binding for UNO API using opaque pointer FFI architecture with type-safe handles.

sc: initial commit of "sheet view" functionality
Tomaž Vajngerl: The idea of a sheet view is that we can change the auto filter's fitlering and sorting in the current view without influencing the filter in other views. This is realised with a copy of a current sheet, which is shown in the current view instead of the default sheet (which still can be seen by other views).

Rust Bindings: Add --enable-rust-uno configure option
Mohamed Ali: - Add ENABLE_RUST_UNO configure flag and autoconf detection- Prepare build infrastructure for rust_uno module integration
