Get Text from SmartArt

Now TextFrame method has been added to ISmartArtShape interface and SmartArtShape class respectively. This property allows you to get all text from SmartArt if it has not only nodes text. The following sample code will help you to get text from SmartArt node.

  $pres = new Presentation("Presentation.pptx");
  try {
    $slide = $pres->getSlides()->get_Item(0);
    $smartArt = $slide->getShapes()->get_Item(0);
    $smartArtNodes = $smartArt->getAllNodes();
    foreach($smartArtNodes as $smartArtNode) {
      foreach($smartArtNode->getShapes() as $nodeShape) {
        if (!java_is_null($nodeShape->getTextFrame())) {
          echo($nodeShape->getTextFrame()->getText());
        }
      }
    }
  } finally {
    if (!java_is_null($pres)) {
      $pres->dispose();
    }
  }

Change Layout Type of SmartArt

In order to change the layout type of SmartArt. Please follow the steps below:

• Create an instance of Presentation class.
• Obtain the reference of a slide by using its Index.
• Add SmartArt BasicBlockList.
• Change LayoutType to BasicProcess.
• Write the presentation as a PPTX file. In the example given below, we have added a connector between two shapes.

  $pres = new Presentation();
  try {
    # Add SmartArt BasicProcess
    $smart = $pres->getSlides()->get_Item(0)->getShapes()->addSmartArt(10, 10, 400, 300, SmartArtLayoutType::BasicBlockList);
    # Change LayoutType to BasicProcess
    $smart->setLayout(SmartArtLayoutType::BasicProcess);
    # Saving Presentation
    $pres->save("ChangeSmartArtLayout_out.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
  } finally {
    if (!java_is_null($pres)) {
      $pres->dispose();
    }
  }

Check Hidden Property of SmartArt

Please note: method ISmartArtNode.isHidden() returns true if this node is a hidden node in the data model. In order to check the hidden property of any node of SmartArt. Please follow the steps below:

• Create an instance of Presentation class.
• Add SmartArt RadialCycle.
• Add node on SmartArt.
• Check isHidden property.
• Write the presentation as a PPTX file.

In the example given below, we have added a connector between two shapes.

  $pres = new Presentation();
  try {
    # Add SmartArt BasicProcess
    $smart = $pres->getSlides()->get_Item(0)->getShapes()->addSmartArt(10, 10, 400, 300, SmartArtLayoutType::RadialCycle);
    # Add node on SmartArt
    $node = $smart->getAllNodes()->addNode();
    # Check isHidden property
    $hidden = $node->isHidden();// Returns true

    if ($hidden) {
      # Do some actions or notifications
    }
    # Saving Presentation
    $pres->save("CheckSmartArtHiddenProperty_out.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
  } finally {
    if (!java_is_null($pres)) {
      $pres->dispose();
    }
  }

Get or Set Organization Chart Type

Methods ISmartArtNode.getOrganizationChartLayout(), setOrganizationChartLayout(int) allow get or sets organization chart type associated with current node. In order to get or set organization chart type. Please follow the steps below:

• Create an instance of Presentation class.
• Add SmartArt on slide.
• Get or set the organization chart type.
• Write the presentation as a PPTX file. In the example given below, we have added a connector between two shapes.

  $pres = new Presentation();
  try {
    # Add SmartArt BasicProcess
    $smart = $pres->getSlides()->get_Item(0)->getShapes()->addSmartArt(10, 10, 400, 300, SmartArtLayoutType::OrganizationChart);
    # Get or Set the organization chart type
    $smart->getNodes()->get_Item(0)->setOrganizationChartLayout(OrganizationChartLayoutType::LeftHanging);
    # Saving Presentation
    $pres->save("OrganizeChartLayoutType_out.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
  } finally {
    if (!java_is_null($pres)) {
      $pres->dispose();
    }
  }

Create Picture Organization Chart

Aspose.Slides for PHP via Java provides a simple API for creating and PictureOrganization charts in an easy way. To create a chart on a slide:

1. Create an instance of the Presentation class.
2. Obtain a slide’s reference by its index.
3. Add a chart with default data along with the desired type (ChartType::PictureOrganizationChart).
4. Write the modified presentation to a PPTX file

The following code is used to create a chart.

  $pres = new Presentation("test.pptx");
  try {
    $smartArt = $pres->getSlides()->get_Item(0)->getShapes()->addSmartArt(0, 0, 400, 400, SmartArtLayoutType::PictureOrganizationChart);
    $pres->save("OrganizationChart.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
  } finally {
    if (!java_is_null($pres)) {
      $pres->dispose();
    }
  }

Get or Set SmartArt State

In order to change the layout type of SmartArt. Please follow the steps below:

1. Create an instance of the Presentation class.
2. Add SmartArt on slide.
3. Get or Set the state of SmartArt Diagram.
4. Write the presentation as a PPTX file.

The following code is used to create a chart.

  # Instantiate Presentation class that represents the PPTX file
  $pres = new Presentation();
  try {
    # Add SmartArt BasicProcess
    $smart = $pres->getSlides()->get_Item(0)->getShapes()->addSmartArt(10, 10, 400, 300, SmartArtLayoutType::BasicProcess);
    # Get or Set the state of SmartArt Diagram
    $smart->setReversed(true);
    $flag = $smart->isReversed();
    # Saving Presentation
    $pres->save("output.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
  } finally {
    if (!java_is_null($pres)) {
      $pres->dispose();
    }
  }
