RichText and RichTextParagraph documentation needed

I'm writing a DXL script for exporting objects from DOORS to MS Word. But I have problem with copying of RTF tables. setRichClip function removes RTF tables when 'style' parameter is provided. I have an idea how to do it but I need DXL RichText and RichTextParagraph documentation. I didn't find it in DXL Reference Manual. Does any one have it?

Solution

  • In the one I have Rich text is chapter 32. near the end of the manual Assuming you are exporting from a column (view) in DOORS, you may find more success with:

    richTextWithOle(column)

    Declaration: string richTextWithOle(Column c, Object o)

    Operation: Returns the text contained in column c for the object o as rich text, including OLE objects.

    richTextWithOleNoCache(column)

    Declaration: string richTextWithOleNoCache(Column c, Object o)

    Operation: Returns the text contained in column c for the object o as rich text, including OLE objects, and clears the OLE cache.

    If you are getting your contents directly from the attribute, the corresponding functions are:

    richTextWithOle

    Declaration: string richTextWithOle(attrRef attr)

    where attrRef is in one of the following formats:

    (Object o).(string attrName)

    (Module m).(string attrName)

    (Link l).(string attrName)

    and

    richTextWithOleNoCache

    richTextNoOle
