About Text transparency in Aspose.Slides.dll for .Net?

Just tested the latest Aspose.Slides.dll version, and the text transparency doesn’t work, following is the code:





var shape = slide.Shapes.AddAutoShape(ShapeType.Rectangle, 700, 100, 200, 80);

shape.FillFormat.FillType = FillType.NoFill;

// shape.FillFormat.SolidFillColor.Color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(0, System.Drawing.Color.Transparent);

var textFrame = shape.TextFrame;

var portion = textFrame.Paragraphs[0].Portions[0];

portion.Text = "Test Water Mark With transparency ";

portion.PortionFormat.FillFormat.FillType = FillType.Solid;

portion.PortionFormat.FillFormat.SolidFillColor.Color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(30, System.Drawing.Color.Silver);

Hi,

Thank you for sharing the sample code.

I just checked your issue with the latest version of Aspose.Slides for .NET v14.9.0 and I am unable to notice any issue with the transparency of the shape. Could you please share the resultant file shared at your end using the latest version to further understand the issue.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Owais,



Thank you for the response, I found out the workaround that change the save option to PPTX will works, if save as PPT, the transparency of text will lost.



BTW: the transparency of shape works in PPT and PPTX.



Please let me know if you need more details, thank you.
