In an empty table cell with the cursor inside, I am inserting multiple paragraphs of text (each with different styles) using insertFileFromBase64.
When no newline is present at the bottom of the Base64 DOCX file, the last paragraph will not receive the style assigned to it within the Base64 DOCX file.
However, when a newline is present within the Base64 DOCX file, I cannot get rid of it. Selecting the last paragraph within the cell and performing a delete does not return an error, but the newline remains present.
I guess this is related to the special status of the "cell marker" within Word, but I cannot find a way around this problem.
Does anyone know a solution?
Found workaround myself: when you FIRST set the style of the current paragraph to the style of the very last paragraph that is contained in the Base64 DOCX file, then the problem can be avoided. (Of course, this supposes that you know upfront the style of that very last paragraph -- which is not necessarily always the case.)

I am trying to include data from a text file (one text file that only contains a single number)
I am able to include this number in the INCLUDETEXT fiel (so the link work) , but at the creation there is a line break just after the field (not in the field). I can remove it, but as soon as I update the field values, the line break commes back.
Has anyone observed this strange behavior?
When viewed, any .csv file committed to a GitHub repository automatically renders as an interactive table, complete with headers and row numbering. By default, the first row is your header row. The tables were supposed to look nice as below:
However, there's an error happening in my tabular data, and despite indicating the error, I can't fix it:
I'm using a .csv file with a semicolon separator. Does anyone have an idea of what's happening?
According to the docs, Github can only do its lay-out thing with .csv (comma-separated) and .tsv (tab-separated) files.
Using a semicolon as a separator isn't supported, at least not officially, and a spurious comma in a semicolon-separated file could well throw the algorithm off.
You could try replacing all semicolons with tabs and see how you fare.
If that doesn't work, try using commas as separators and enclose all text table cell data with quotes, like:
"Liver fibrosis, sclerosis, and cirrhosis","c370800","102922","Cystic fibrosis related cirrhosis","Diagnosis of liver fibrosis, sclerosis, and cirrhosis"
Note: no spaces after the commas. Also, if you have quotes in the text fields, you will have to escape those to "" (two quotes), or the algorithm will get confused.
You may get away with using quotes only for the offending text data, but that could well be more difficult to generate than just putting the quotes around all fields.
My nattable looks like the one below.
When I copy the cells and paste in excel the cells look distorted as below.
The line break is not captured properly in the process.
The bit of code referred for copying is the same as that in the Nattable example
Is this a bug and solved in the next versions or am I missing on something.
I would not say that this is a bug in NatTable. Pasting a line break into Excel inside a cell is not that simple. You can search for this topic and see the real issue. When you copy content from NatTable, the content includes the line breaks of your cell data. The paste operation in Excel takes those line breaks and interpretes them as new row and not new line inside a cell.
You can of course implement and register a custom CopyDataCommandHandler that performs special operations to replace a line breaks in NatTable content with something that Excel handles as line breaks inside a cell.
The solution as of now is as follows :-
In Excel if the content that is sent to the Clipboard is present in double quotes and the \n is included in the double quotes Excel interprets this as a single cell content and adds the line break in the cell
Alternatively since this is a table while copying content to the clipboard we can convert it to html tags appropriately and convert it to html format which excel reads and converts appropriately.
Refer below image
However while copying between cells from Nattable to Nattable this is taken care of.
A simple html page has FORMATTED text - not fancy - line breaks, and italic.
I want to have a button that takes this formatted text, and copies it to the clipboard, formatted (it is planned to be pasted into some LibreOffice document later).
Couldn't find how to do it.
I tried ZeroClipboard, and a suggestion to parse the text, replacing ""-s to "\r\n". That indeed does the trick for line breaks, but what about italic?... Any means to get this functionality?...
When you create an italic tag the responsible for formatting the document and showing the text properly is the browser. If you want to copy the text you should get the text already parse and render by the browser or parse yourself the text like you did with break lines. For italics when you find a ... tag you must create the adequate text. That is, text in italics, but that depends on the language you are using, but i'm sure it can be done.
OK,
Turns out that ZeroClipboard had this functionality (of rendering the HTML text upon paste), but have disabled it.
However, the version that supports it can be found at: https://github.com/botcheddevil/ZeroClipboard
Note:
You may find that in this version, creating the client, binding the flash to a component, and handling the events are rather different than the documentation of current version of ZeroClipboard (https://github.com/zeroclipboard/zeroclipboard/blob/master/docs/instructions.md
I am programmatically adding an OpenXML paragraph to a Word Document and I need to be able to identify that paragraph as mine later on. Any ideas on how to do this? I have tried inserting an XML comment and extended attributes but when you save the document in word it removes all unknown xml. It doesn't matter if it is an attribute in the paragraph or the run, or an element before the paragraph, just some way I can identify it later on. Also, I do not want this identifier visible in the word document.
Examples of what I could use:
<paragraph id="myParagraph"></paragraph>
<otherelement>myparagraph</otherelement>
<paragraph></paragraph>
Any help would be AWESOME because my head it hurting from the brick wall I have been running into.
Thanks!
Give the paragraph a w:rsidR attribute and assign a unique value to it; if there is no value present when word saves the document it will randomly assign it's own 8-digit hexadecimal value anyway. (The value is not limited to 8 digits or hexadecimal characters. Word will not modify existing RSIDs.)
That being said -- make sure to keep RSID values unique and do NOT modify existing RSID attributes -- they are the unique ID for that paragraph, and if the document splits into multiple versions and a user tries to merge them back together those RSIDs are used to determine what paragraphs have changed.
(Also note that runs have RSIDs as well.)
If the user modifies the paragraph, the RSID of that paragraph may change.
The alternate option is to use Custom XML: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb608618.aspx
Use stylename in paragraph properties.
or try this one

Hope this helps.
