Text Box with Hyperlink using Apache POI and Aspose.Slides

Aspose.Slides - Text Box with Hyperlink

Please follow the steps below to create a TextBox with Hyperlink by using Aspose.Slides for Java API:

  • Create an instance of Presentation.
  • Obtain the reference of the first slide in the presentation.
  • Add an AutoShape with ShapeType as Rectangle at a specified position of the slide and obtain the reference of that newly added AutoShape object.
  • Add a TextFrame to the AutoShape.
  • Instantiate the IHyperlinkManager.
  • Assign the IHyperlinkManager object to the HLinkClick property associated with the desired portion of the TextFrame.
  • Finally, save the PPTX file using the Presentation object
// Add an AutoShape of Rectangle Type
IShape pptxShape = slide.getShapes().addAutoShape(ShapeType.Rectangle, 150, 150, 150, 50);

// Cast the shape to AutoShape
IAutoShape pptxAutoShape = (IAutoShape) pptxShape;

// Access ITextFrame associated with the AutoShape
pptxAutoShape.addTextFrame("");
ITextFrame ITextFrame = pptxAutoShape.getTextFrame();

// Add some text to the frame
ITextFrame.getParagraphs().get_Item(0).getPortions().get_Item(0).setText("Aspose.Slides");

// Set Hyperlink for the portion text
IHyperlinkManager HypMan = ITextFrame.getParagraphs().get_Item(0)
		.getPortions().get_Item(0).getPortionFormat().getHyperlinkManager();

HypMan.setExternalHyperlinkClick("http://www.aspose.com");
