My continuing obsession with thumbnails has now created one for koffice
files:

http://www.babysimon.co.uk/kde/kofficepreview.png

If you look carefully at the code you may see traces of the HTML preview and
Philippe Fremy's KParts tutorial :)

However, it's not quite as I would like it. I can't seem to control the
scaling in a very meaningful way. What I would like to do is find out how
wide the document "wants" to be, then scale for that (particularly important
for KWord docs). But I can't mind a method that tells me this. Is there one?
Also, when adjusting the zoom parameters which are passed to
KoDocument::paintEverything, font sizes don't seem to change. I recall this
used to be a problem but I don't know whether it's been fixed yet (ummm, I'm
afraid I hardly use KOffice...). Also, it completely fails to work with
KPresenter. I don't know why.

The attached patch provides two .desktop files to switch it on and off - one
for KOffice and one for MSOffice. I don't know if this is the best way to do
it - should it be lots of little .desktops or one big one maybe?

What else? Oh, to reply to the list admin's question, yes, it probably is
quite slow. "Unfortunately" I developed it on my fast work machine. It might
go faster if it "reused" the KoDocuments (like the HTML preview reuses
KHTML), but it would probably need a QDict of them. Hmmm...

Cheers,

Simon
