Delete Current Document page

Plugins

How can I create a plugin to delete the current page from a Word document?

Hey @ajay :wave:

So, basic information on macros and plugins:
https://api.onlyoffice.com/plugin/basic

Also in this section you can find working examples of plugins and macros.
https://api.onlyoffice.com/plugin/code

The structure of the text document is described here:
https://api.onlyoffice.com/docbuilder/textdocumentapi

What do you mean by ‘current page’ in the document editor?
Blank page or page with content?

I want to delete the page currently pointed to by my cursor, and I wish for both the page and its contents to be deleted.

Also, could you tell me how I can create a plugin to apply my custom style to a portion of a paragraph or text selected by the user?

Hi @Nikolas ,
Any Updates on Delete page with content?

hi, @ajay

I’ll take a look now

Hi, @ajay
unfortunately, we don’t have the ability to use something like Page1.Delete().

Can you provide an analogue of the VBA script, if you have one?

@Nikolas
I don’t have a VBA script for this, but I am using the code below to add a new page in the document. If you manage to delete the current section’s contents and then remove the section break, I think it will work. i tried to do this but unable to found any method on section to delete contents or delete current section completly.

var oDocument = Api.GetDocument();

var oParagraph = Api.CreateParagraph();

oDocument.InsertContent([oParagraph]);

// oParagraph.AddPageBreak();

var oSection = oDocument.CreateSection(oParagraph);

oSection.SetType(“nextPage”);

oDocument.InsertContent([oSection]);

var oNextSection = oSection.GetNext();

var nWidth = 8.5 * 1440; // 12240 twips

var nHeight = 11 * 1440; // 15840 twips

var isPortrait = true;

oNextSection.SetPageSize(nWidth, nHeight, isPortrait);

var topMarginCm = 1.2;

var bottomMarginCm = 1.2;

var leftMarginCm = 1.5;

var rightMarginCm = 1.5;

var topMarginTwips = topMarginCm * 566.929134;

var bottomMarginTwips = bottomMarginCm * 566.929134;

var leftMarginTwips = leftMarginCm * 566.929134;

var rightMarginTwips = rightMarginCm * 566.929134;

oNextSection.SetPageMargins(leftMarginTwips, topMarginTwips, rightMarginTwips, bottomMarginTwips);
