Section

Examples for managing presentation sections—add, access, remove, and rename them programmatically using Aspose.Slides for PHP via Java.

Add a Section

Create a section that starts at a specific slide.

function addSection() {
    $presentation = new Presentation();
    try {
        $slide = $presentation->getSlides()->get_Item(0);

        // Specify the slide that marks the beginning of the section.
        $presentation->getSections()->addSection("New Section", $slide);

        $presentation->save("section.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
    } finally {
        $presentation->dispose();
    }
}

Access a Section

Read section information from a presentation.

function accessSection() {
    $presentation = new Presentation("section.pptx");
    try {
        // Access a section by index.
        $section = $presentation->getSections()->get_Item(0);
        $sectionName = $section->getName();
    } finally {
        $presentation->dispose();
    }
}

Remove a Section

Delete a previously added section.

function removeSection() {
    $presentation = new Presentation("section.pptx");
    try {
        $section = $presentation->getSections()->get_Item(0);

        // Remove the section.
        $presentation->getSections()->removeSection($section);

        $presentation->save("section_removed.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
    } finally {
        $presentation->dispose();
    }
}

Rename a Section

Change the name of an existing section.

function renameSection() {
    $presentation = new Presentation("section.pptx");
    try {
        $section = $presentation->getSections()->get_Item(0);
        $section->setName("New Name");

        $presentation->save("section_renamed.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
    } finally {
        $presentation->dispose();
    }
}
