I would like to discuss addition of a KoGenStyle::rmProperty method.<br>
<br>
There's a reason (maybe a stupid one) that I could make use of it in libmsooxml at the moment without re-designing and rewriting a lot of code. We collect there a number of KoGenStyle variables storing predefined formatting for paragraphs that we inherit and
modify by any overrides for the current paragraph.<br>
<br>
That's OK for MS Word files. The problem is that positioning of lists in MS PowerPoint is different compared to MS Word (here also positioning of lists inside a text-box is different compared to the main text). At the moment we construct a unique list style
in case of ppt/pptx and any floating/inline shapes found in doc/docx based on both the list style and the paragraph style. I still need to remove the inherited fo:margin-left and fo:text-indent from the KoGenStyle for the paragraph because attributes defined
in the paragraph style have precedence over the list style. Otherwise we would need a separate textlayout code for text in a text-box and that for both ODP and ODT.<br>
Of course that's the price for compatibility with MS Office.<br>
<br>
At the moment LO/OOo use a similar approach in ppt filters (we do a better job actually), but not in pptx filters. To maintain compatibility with LO/OOo is also important, but I don't think it's doable without keeping the textlayout code simple or discussions
with their developers.<br>
