[IDCS5] Change to inline make a strange behavior

[LSZ]

Hi,

I am writing a ChangeToInline function with kChangeILGCmdBoss command, exactly like SnpManipulateInline::ChangeToInline.

But, the command has a strange behavior. Item is anchored inline, but a copy of it rest on the page.

This copy is like a phantom item. I can't select it and I can't delete it, it's not in a locked layer, but appears on the page.

Can anyone tell me how could I delete it ?

Thanks.

Let me explain a little more my problem.

Just modify the SnpManipulateInline::CreateFrame function like this :

#include "FileUtils.h"

#include "ISpreadList.h"

#include "ISpread.h"

ErrorCode SnpManipulateInline::CreateFrame(IDataBase* database, UIDRef& newFrameUIDRef)

{

// You can make any type of frame into an inline. Here we make a new graphic frame.

PMRect bounds(0, 0, 100, 100);

SDKLayoutHelper layoutHelper;

IDFile imageFile;

FileUtils::PMStringToIDFile("c:\\tmp\\colorbars.tif",imageFile);

// Get reference to spread layer

InterfacePtr<ISpreadList> iSpreadList(database,database->GetRootUID(),UseDefaultIID());

InterfacePtr<ISpread> iSpread(database,(iSpreadList->GetNthSpreadUID(0)),UseDefaultIID());

SDKLayoutHelper helper;

UIDRef spreadLayerRef=helper.GetSpreadLayerRef(::GetUIDRef(iSpread));

// Place image

newFrameUIDRef=layoutHelper.PlaceFileInFrame(imageFile,spreadLayerRef,bounds, K2::kSuppressUI);

//newFrameUIDRef = layoutHelper.CreateRectangleFrame(UIDRef(database, kInvalidUID), bounds);

if (newFrameUIDRef)

     return kSuccess;

else

     return kFailure;

}

Then try it in SnippetRunner. This is the result :

and you see what I means.

Just detach object to be placed inline from it's father.

Here's sample code from SnpManipulateInline.cpp

ErrorCode
SnpManipulateInline::InsertInline(const UIDRef& storyUIDRef, const TextIndex& whereTextIndex)   
{
    ErrorCode status = kFailure;
    CmdUtils::SequencePtr cmdSeq;
    do {
#if 0
        UIDRef newFrameUIDRef;

        status = this->CreateFrame(storyUIDRef.GetDataBase(), newFrameUIDRef);
        ASSERT(status == kSuccess);
        if (status != kSuccess) {
            break;
        }
#else
        UIDRef newFrameUIDRef(storyUIDRef.GetDataBase(),230); // 230 : UID of a 'normal' existing object

        // Get father
        InterfacePtr<IHierarchy> iHierarchy(newFrameUIDRef, UseDefaultIID());
        IHierarchy *iParentHierarchy = iHierarchy->QueryParent();

        // Detach it
        iParentHierarchy->Remove(iHierarchy);

#endif
        status = this->ChangeToInline(storyUIDRef, whereTextIndex, newFrameUIDRef);
        ASSERT(status == kSuccess);
    } while (false);
    if (status != kSuccess)
        ErrorUtils::PMSetGlobalErrorCode(status);
    return status;
}

It seems to be OK.

But, use IHierarchyUtils->RemoveFromHierarchy to detach from hierarchy.

For not change model without command.

Thanks for help Jacques.
