Public API Changes
Aspose.Slides.Animation.IBehaviorProperties interface and BehaviorProperties class have been renamed to IBehaviorPropertyCollection and BehaviorPropertyCollection, changes in public API has been made
Aspose.Slides.Animation.IBehaviorProperties has been renamed to IBehaviorPropertyCollection and inherits IList
Following methods were removed:
public void CopyTo(PropertyType[] array, int arrayIndex)
public PropertyType this[int index]
public IEnumerator<PropertyType> GetEnumerator()
Following methods were marked as obsolete:
public void Add(PropertyType item)
public int IndexOf(PropertyType item)
public void Insert(int index, PropertyType item)
public bool Remove(PropertyType item)
public bool Contains(PropertyType item)
Following methods were added:
public void Add(IBehaviorProperty item)
public void Add(string propertyValue)
public int IndexOf(IBehaviorProperty item)
public int IndexOf(string propertyValue)
public void Insert(int index, IBehaviorProperty item)
public void Insert(int index, string propertyValue)
public void CopyTo(IBehaviorProperty[] array, int arrayIndex)
public bool Remove(IBehaviorProperty item)
public bool Remove(string propertyValue)
public bool Contains(IBehaviorProperty item)
public bool Contains(string propertyValue)
public IBehaviorProperty this[int index]
public IEnumerator<IBehaviorProperty> GetEnumerator()
Enum Aspose.Slides.Animation.PropertyType has been marked as Obsolete
PropertyType enum was replaced by BehaviorProperty class, and planned to be removed in November’s release.
[Obsolete("Use BehaviorProperty type instead. This type will be removed after 01.11.2016.")]
public enum PropertyType
GetCoordinates method has been added to IPortion and Portion
The new method GetCoordinates has been added to IPortion and Portion which allows of retrieveing the coordinates of the beginning of the portion:
AutoShape shape = (AutoShape)pres.Slides[0].Shapes[0];
TextFrame textFrame = (TextFrame)shape.TextFrame;
foreach (var paragraph in textFrame.Paragraphs)
{
foreach (Portion portion in paragraph.Portions)
{
PointF point = portion.GetCoordinates();
}
}
GetRect method has been added to IParagraph and Paragraph
The new method GetRect() has been added. It allows to get paragraph bounds rectangle.
AutoShape shape = (AutoShape)pres.Slides[0].Shapes[0];
var textFrame = (TextFrame)shape.TextFrame
RectangleF rect = ((Paragraph) textFrame.Paragraphs[0]).GetRect()
New interface Aspose.Slides.Animation.IBehaviorProperty and class Aspose.Slides.Animation.BehaviorProperty have been added
New BehaviorProperty class replaces and expands PropertyType enum functionality. Now it allows you to use the full set of predefined properties and custom properties, which are not described in the specification.
Instances for predefined time animate values can be retrieved through corresponding static properties, for example:
BehaviorProperty.PptC
BehaviorProperty.StyleColor
BehaviorProperty.FillOpacity
represent ppt_c, style.color and fill.opacity values from list.
The another way is the using of GetOrCreateByValue(string) method:
BehaviorProperty.GetOrCreateByValue("style.color")
BehaviorProperty.GetOrCreateByValue("customProp")
Backward compatibility method was added only to simplify upgrade to 16.4 version for the customers which actively use PropertyType enum
BehaviorProperty.GetByType(PropertyType.Color)
This methods (as well as properties) create only one instance for each property value. For example two calls of BehaviorProperty.PptC will return the same instance. This is true for custom properties as well.
Instance properties of this class are described by the IBehaviorProperty interface
public interface IBehaviorProperty
{
/// <summary>
/// Value of the property
/// </summary>
string Value { get; }
/// <summary>
/// Shows if this property does not belong to the predefined properties list in the specification:
/// https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd949052(v=office.15).aspx
/// </summary>
bool IsCustom { get; }
}
New method GetActualLabelText() has been added to IDataLabel interface and DataLabel class
Returns actual label text based on DataLabelFormat settings or TextFrameForOverriding.Text value.
using (Presentation pres = new Presentation())
{
IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.Bubble, 50, 50, 500, 400);
chart.ChartData.Series[0].Labels.DefaultDataLabelFormat.ShowBubbleSize = true;
chart.ChartData.Series[0].Labels.DefaultDataLabelFormat.ShowCategoryName = true;
chart.ChartData.Series[0].Labels.DefaultDataLabelFormat.ShowValue = true;
chart.ChartData.Series[0].Labels.DefaultDataLabelFormat.ShowSeriesName = true;
IDataLabelCollection labels = chart.ChartData.Series[0].Labels;
Console.WriteLine(labels[0].GetActualLabelText()); // "Y-Values; 0.7; 2.7; 10"
Console.WriteLine(labels[1].GetActualLabelText()); //"Y-Values; 1.8; 3.2; 4"
Console.WriteLine(labels[2].GetActualLabelText()); //"Y-Values; 2.6; 0.8; 8"
}
Property RelatedLegendEntry has been added to ChartDataPoint and IChartDataPoint classes
Represents legend entry related with the data point.
IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.Pie, 50, 50, 500, 400);
chart.ChartData.Series[0].DataPoints[0].RelatedLegendEntry.Hide = true;
Property RelatedLegendEntry has been added to ChartSeries and IChartSeries classes
Represents legend entry related with the series.
IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.ClusteredColumn, 50, 50, 500, 400);
chart.ChartData.Series[0].RelatedLegendEntry.Hide = true;
Property RelatedLegendEntry has been added to Trendline and ITrendline classes
Represents legend entry related with the trendline.
IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.ClusteredColumn, 50, 50, 500, 400);
chart.ChartData.Series[0].Trendlines[0].RelatedLegendEntry.Hide = true;
Swf and SwfNotes values have been added to Aspose.Slides.Export.SaveFormat enumeration
New export format for an Adobe Flash file format (SWF) has been added.
Swf and SwfNotes value have been added to Aspose.Slides.Export.SaveFormat enumeration for exporting presentations to SWF format.
The new public class SwfOptions has been added to Aspose.Slides.Export namespace. By the using of an instance of this class, it is possible to control how a presentation is saved to Swf format.
To export presentation to SWF format the following code snippet can be used:
using (Presentation pres = new Presentation("Presentation1.pptx"))
{
SwfOptions swfOptions = new SwfOptions();
swfOptions.ViewerIncluded = false;
// Saving presentation
pres.Save("output.swf", SaveFormat.Swf, swfOptions);
swfOptions.ViewerIncluded = true;
// Saving notes pages
pres.Save("outputNotes.swf", SaveFormat.SwfNotes, swfOptions);
TextAlignment.Distributed value has been added to TextAlignment enum
It represents alignment of text distributed along the whole element.
