Open Tools - Macros - LibreOffice Basic - Edit and select Application Macros container.

ScriptForge libraries build up an extensible collection of macro scripting resources for LibreOffice to be invoked from Basic macros or Python scripts.

• Basic macros require to load ScriptForge library using the following statement:
GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.loadLibrary("ScriptForge")
• Python scripts require an import from scriptforge module:
from scriptforge import CreateScriptService

To learn more about how to create and execute Python scripts using the ScriptForge library, read the help page Creating Python Scripts with ScriptForge.

## Invoking ScriptForge services

The described modules and classes are invoked from user scripts as "Services". A generic constructor of those services has been designed for that purpose for each language.

The Dispose method is available in all services and should be called to free up resources after usage:

##### In Basic

        GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.LoadLibrary("ScriptForge")
        Set oSvc = CreateScriptService("servicename"[, arg0, arg1, ...])
        ' ...
        oSvc.Dispose()

##### In Python

        from scriptforge import CreateScriptService
        svc = CreateScriptService('servicename'[, arg0, arg1, ...])
        # ...
        svc.Dispose()

The focus is set on getting and setting the values displayed by the controls of the dialog box. Formatting is accessible via the XControlModel and XControlView properties.

Note that the unique DialogControl.Value property content varies according to the control type.

A special attention is given to controls of type tree control. It is easy to populate a tree, either branch by branch, or with a set of branches at once. Populating a tree control can be performed statically or dynamically.

## ScriptForge.Dictionary service
