Hello,

I have a question about Model2Doc, I would make reference to an external style sheet.

In the template, it works fine if I refer to a style sheet contained in a plugin:
platform:/plugin/my.plugin/resources/my-styles.ott

But I cannot arrive to use a style not contained in a plugin. I tested :
workspace_loc:/MyProject/resources/my-styles.ott
C:\MyProject\resources\my-styles.ott
/MyProject/resources/my-styles.ott

But it seems to be not supported and I get an error :

Secondary question :
What is the kind of file to use for template when using Docx generator?

Regards.
Yoann.

For the first question, I found the solution. I used the corresponding location uri (with the eclipse way) :
platform:/resource/MyProject/my-styles.ott
Eclipse Doc Link

I don't know if it's possible to use an absolute path, is it?

Hi all,
For interested people, file dotx can be used as template file for the word generator.
Example :
platform:/resource/MyProject/my-styles.dotx

Hello Yoann,
when we started the project, we supported absolute path in C:/... But it was difficult for us to ensure a good behavior on Windows and Linux. In addition, we have many user sharing their models with git or CDO and in this case, the absolute path solution will generate error for users.
That's for these reasons we removed this capability, thinking nobody used it.
