Determine if Shape is Smart Art Shape with C++

Possible Usage Scenarios

Smart Art Shapes are special shapes in Microsoft Excel that allow you to create complex diagrams automatically. You can determine whether the shape is a Smart Art shape or a normal shape using the Shape.IsSmartArt property.

Determine if Shape is Smart Art Shape

The following sample code loads the sample Excel file containing a Smart Art shape as shown in this screenshot. It then prints the value of the Shape.IsSmartArt property of the first shape. Please see the console output of the sample code given below.

Sample Code

#include <iostream>
#include "Aspose.Cells.h"

using namespace Aspose::Cells;
using namespace Aspose::Cells::Drawing;

int main()
{
    Aspose::Cells::Startup();

    // Load the sample Smart Art shape - Excel file
    U16String inputFilePath(u"sampleSmartArtShape.xlsx");
    Workbook wb(inputFilePath);

    // Access first worksheet
    WorksheetCollection sheets = wb.GetWorksheets();
    Worksheet ws = sheets.Get(0);

    // Access first shape
    ShapeCollection shapes = ws.GetShapes();
    Shape sh = shapes.Get(0);

    // Determine if shape is Smart Art
    std::cout << "Is Smart Art Shape: " << sh.IsSmartArt() << std::endl;

    Aspose::Cells::Cleanup();
}

Console Output

Is Smart Art Shape: True
