Public API and Backwards Incompatible Changes in Aspose.Slides for Java 14.8.0

Public API Changes

Added the Aspose.Slides.Charts.IChartSeries.getOverlap(), IChartSeriesGroup.getOverlap(), and setOverlap(byte) Mehtods

The Aspose.Slides.Charts.IChartSeries.getOverlap() gets how much bars and columns should overlap on 2D charts (in a range from -100 to 100). This method is not only for specific series but for all series of the parent series group - this is projection of the appropriate group property.

  • Use IChartSeries.getParentSeriesGroup() method for accessing to parent series group.
  • Use IChartSeriesGroup.getOverlap() and setOverlap(byte) methods to manage the value.

 Presentation pres = new Presentation();

IChart chart = pres.getSlides().get_Item(0).getShapes().addChart(ChartType.ClusteredColumn, 50, 50, 600, 400, true);

IChartSeriesCollection series = chart.getChartData().getSeries();

if (series.get_Item(0).getOverlap() == 0) {

  series.get_Item(0).getParentSeriesGroup().setOverlap(-30);

}

Added the ShapeThumbnailBounds.Appearance Enum Value

This method of creating shape thumbnails allows developers to generate a shape thumbnail in the bounds of its appearance. It takes into account all shape effects. The generated shape thumbnail is restricted by the slide bounds.


 Presentation pres = new Presentation();

BufferedImage st = pres.getSlides().get_Item(0).getShapes().get_Item(0).getThumbnail(ShapeThumbnailBounds.Appearance, 1, 1);

Added the VbaProject Class and IVbaProject Interface, Changed the Presentation.getVbaProject() and setVbaProject(VbaProject) Methods

A new feature allows developers to create and edit VBA projects in a presentation.


 Presentation pres = new Presentation();

// Create new VBA Project

pres.setVbaProject(new VbaProject());

// Add empty module to the VBA project

IVbaModule module = pres.getVbaProject().getModules().addEmptyModule("Module");

// Set module source code

module.setSourceCode("Sub Test(oShape As Shape)\r\n    MsgBox \"Test\"\r\nEnd Sub");

// Create reference to <stdole>

VbaReferenceOleTypeLib stdoleReference =

  new VbaReferenceOleTypeLib("stdole",

    "*\\G{00020430-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}#2.0#0#C:\\Windows\\system32\\stdole2.tlb#OLE Automation");

// Create reference to Office

VbaReferenceOleTypeLib officeReference =

  new VbaReferenceOleTypeLib("Office",

    "*\\G{2DF8D04C-5BFA-101B-BDE5-00AA0044DE52}#2.0#0#C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Microsoft Shared\\OFFICE14\\MSO.DLL#Microsoft Office 14.0 Object Library");

// Add references to the VBA project

pres.getVbaProject().getReferences().add(stdoleReference);

pres.getVbaProject().getReferences().add(officeReference);

pres.save("data\\test.pptm", SaveFormat.Pptm);
