Hey @BetterThanThis.
It looks like soon after you asked this, Macro functionality was introduced:
As long as you are on a newer version of Collabora Online, this should be possible.
(I just tested 23.05 and it worked.)
How To Enable Macros in Collabora Online
- Go into your
coolwsd.xml
file. - There is a line for the
enable_macros_execution
setting:
<enable_macros_execution desc="Specifies whether the macro execution is enabled in general. This will enable Basic and Python scripts to execute both installed and from documents. If it is set to false, the macro_security_level is ignored. If it is set to true, the mentioned entry specified the level of macro security." type="bool" default="false">false</enable_macros_execution>
Change that from false
→ true
.
-
Now, when you open a document, there should be a new “Run Macro” option available.
- In the default Tabbed UI:
- File > Run Macro
- In the “View > Compact View”:
- Tools > Run Macro
- In the default Tabbed UI:
-
That should open up the “Macro Selector” menu:
From there, you can choose your macros.
