Hi,
Is it possible to draw anything using the generic appendElement() and insertElement() methods of OpenOffice::OODoc::XPath, knowing that the high level API doesn't provide shape-specific ones.
The element name is "draw:rect" and its mandatory attributes are x, y, height and width in the svg namespace.
As an example, the code below draws a rectangle shape with arbitrary SVG position and size values in the first page of a given document. In addition, it fills the rectangle with an arbitrary (light blue) color (provided in hexadecimal #rrggbb format), through a graphic style definition; but as long as the default graphic style of the document is OK, the "draw:style-name" attribute and the corresponding style creation could be omitted. This example assumes $doc is the content of a presentation (odp) or drawing (odg) ODF file. If needed, createStyle is described in the OpenOffice::OODoc::Styles manual page, and getDrawPage in the OpenOffice::OODoc::Text one.
Note that the ODF spec covers many other shapes, including a "custom-shape" type, but some of them requires much more parameters than the rectangle.
$doc->createStyle
(
"LightBlue",
family => "graphic",
properties =>
{
"draw:fill-color" => "#cfe7e8"
}
);
$p = $doc->getDrawpage(0);
$doc->appendElement
(
$p, "draw:rect",
attributes =>
{
"svg:x" => "2cm", "svg:y" => "3cm",
"svg:height" => "4cm", "svg:height" => "5cm",
"draw:style-name" => "LightBlue"
}
);
