NOTES
=====
-Installation
-------------
+Activate the New Chart
+----------------------
-in workbench/officeintegration you find a perl script 'install.pl' for doing all
-necessary changes to enable the chart in an office.
+After installation of an Office, you will still get the old chart
+implementation. In order to get the new implementation you have to activate it
+via the configuration.
-Note:
-* Start a freshly installed Office at least once before you call this script.
-* the TypeDetection.xcu of your user-registry is simply overwritten.
-* the libraries are linked on Unix machines, on Windows they are just copied, so
- keep them updated.
-* Start the new chart with 'soffice private:factory/chart' or by entering
- 'private:factory/chart' in the URL field of an application.
+Set the boolean Config-Item Office.Common/Internal:DevelopmentChart to true.
+HOW-TO:
+
+* Open the file Common.xcu of the Registry.
+
+Location on Unix:
+$HOME/StarOffice7/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcu
+
+Location on Windows:
+"%UserProfile%\Application Data\StarOffice7\user\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\Common.xcu"
+
+* Under the configuration-node "Internal" (see <node oor:name="Internal"> tag)
+ you have to add the property "DevelopmentChart" and set this to "true":
+
+* Add the following after the "Internal"-node:
+
+ <prop oor:name="DevelopmentChart" oor:type="xs:boolean">
+ <value>true</value>
+ </prop>
+
+After that, your Common.xcu may look like this:
+
+,----[ Common.xcu example ]
+| <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+| <oor:component-data xmlns:oor="http://openoffice.org/2001/registry" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" oor:name="Common" oor:package="org.openoffice.Office">
+| <node oor:name="Internal">
+| <prop oor:name="DevelopmentChart" oor:type="xs:boolean">
+| <value>true</value>
+| </prop>
+| <prop oor:name="CurrentTempURL" oor:type="xs:string">
+| <value/>
+| </prop>
+| </node>
+| <node oor:name="Help">
+| <node oor:name="Registration">
+| <prop oor:name="ReminderDate" oor:type="xs:string">
+| <value xsi:nil="true"/>
+| </prop>
+| <prop oor:name="RequestDialog" oor:type="xs:int">
+| <value>0</value>
+| </prop>
+| </node>
+| </node>
+| <node oor:name="Misc">
+| <prop oor:name="FirstRun" oor:type="xs:boolean">
+| <value>false</value>
+| </prop>
+| </node>
+| </oor:component-data>
+`----
+
+* To switch back, you can either replace the "true" by a "false", or you can
+ delete the complete "DevelopmentChart" property (the three lines) you
+ inserted.
