Aspose.Slides - Create Table
Aspose.Slides for Java has provided the simplest API to create tables in an easiest way. To create a table in a slide and perform some basic operations on the table, please follow the steps below:
- Create an instance of Presentation class
- Obtain the reference of a slide by using its Index
- Define Array of Columns with Width
- Define Array of Rows with Height
- Add a Table to the slide using addTable method exposed by IShapes object
- Iterate through each Cell to apply formatting to the Top, Bottom, Right, Left Borders
- Merge first two cells of the first row of the table
- Access the Text Frame of a Cell
- Add some text to the Text Frame
- Save the modified presentation
Java
//Instantiate Presentation class that represents PPTX file
Presentation pres = new Presentation();
//Access first slide
ISlide sld = pres.getSlides().get_Item(0);
//Define columns with widths and rows with heights
double[] dblCols = { 50, 50, 50 };
double[] dblRows = { 50, 30, 30, 30, 30 };
//Add table shape to slide
ITable tbl = sld.getShapes().addTable(100, 50, dblCols, dblRows);
//Set border format for each cell
for(int row = 0; row < tbl.getRows().size(); row++)
{
for (int cell = 0; cell < tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).size(); cell++)
{
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderTop().getFillFormat().setFillType(FillType.Solid);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderTop().getFillFormat().getSolidFillColor().setColor(Color.RED);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderTop().setWidth(5);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderBottom().getFillFormat().setFillType(FillType.Solid);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderBottom().getFillFormat().getSolidFillColor().setColor(Color.RED);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderBottom().setWidth(5);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderLeft().getFillFormat().setFillType(FillType.Solid);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderLeft().getFillFormat().getSolidFillColor().setColor(Color.RED);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderLeft().setWidth(5);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderRight().getFillFormat().setFillType(FillType.Solid);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderRight().getFillFormat().getSolidFillColor().setColor(Color.RED);
tbl.getRows().get_Item(row).get_Item(cell).getBorderRight().setWidth(5);
}
}
//Merge cells 1 & 2 of row 1
tbl.mergeCells(tbl.getRows().get_Item(0).get_Item(0), tbl.getRows().get_Item(1).get_Item(0), false);
//Add text to the merged cell
tbl.getRows().get_Item(0).get_Item(0).getTextFrame().setText("Merged Cells");
//Save PPTX to Disk
pres.save(dataDir + "Tables-Aspose.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);pptx4j - Create Table
Below example shows 2 different methods of adding a table to presentation using pptx4j.
Java
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// Where will we save our new .ppxt?
String outputfilepath = dataDir + "Tables-Pptx4j.pptx";
// Create skeletal package, including a MainPresentationPart and a SlideLayoutPart
PresentationMLPackage presentationMLPackage = PresentationMLPackage.createPackage();
// Need references to these parts to create a slide
// Please note that these parts *already exist* - they are
// created by createPackage() above. See that method
// for instruction on how to create and add a part.
MainPresentationPart pp = (MainPresentationPart)presentationMLPackage.getParts().getParts().get(
new PartName("/ppt/presentation.xml"));
SlideLayoutPart layoutPart = (SlideLayoutPart)presentationMLPackage.getParts().getParts().get(
new PartName("/ppt/slideLayouts/slideLayout1.xml"));
// OK, now we can create a slide
SlidePart slidePart = presentationMLPackage.createSlidePart(pp, layoutPart,
new PartName("/ppt/slides/slide1.xml"));
// Method 1 - programmatic
slidePart.getJaxbElement().getCSld().getSpTree().getSpOrGrpSpOrGraphicFrame().add( getTable() );
// Method 2 - from string - on slide 2
SlidePart slide2 = presentationMLPackage.createSlidePart(pp, layoutPart,
new PartName("/ppt/slides/slide2.xml"));
slide2.getJaxbElement().getCSld().getSpTree().getSpOrGrpSpOrGraphicFrame().add( createGraphicFrameFromString() );
// All done: save it
presentationMLPackage.save(new java.io.File(outputfilepath));
System.out.println("\n\n done .. saved " + outputfilepath);
