Write Style Char Class

Applying Character Styles can be accomplished using the ooodev.format.writer.style.Char class.

Setup

from ooodev.format.writer.style import Char as StyleChar, StyleCharKind
from ooodev.office.write import Write
from ooodev.gui import GUI
from ooodev.loader.lo import Lo

    with Lo.Loader(Lo.ConnectSocket()):
        doc = Write.create_doc()
        GUI.set_visible(True, doc)
        Lo.delay(500)
        GUI.zoom(GUI.ZoomEnum.ZOOM_100_PERCENT)

        cursor = Write.get_cursor(doc)
        Write.append(
            cursor=cursor,
            text="The quick fox jumped over the lazy dog.",
            styles=[StyleChar().quotation],
        )
        cursor.goLeft(25, False)
        cursor.goRight(6, True)
        StyleChar(name=StyleCharKind.STRONG_EMPHASIS).apply(cursor)
        cursor.gotoEnd(False)
        Write.end_paragraph(cursor)

        Lo.delay(1_000)
        Lo.close_doc(doc)
    return 0
