Accessing the shape name and creating charts question

In trying your product I have a couple of questions:

1) Is there a way to access the shape name in Aspose.Slides?

2) I was not able to use LINQ in Aspose.Slides.

3) I noticed charts are created in MS Excel format using Aspose.Cells and then embedded as a OLE Object using Aspose.Slides, is this the only method? Will you be able to create charts using Aspose.Slides and not embedding it as a OLE Object?

Will there be any updates that would address any of these issues?

thanks.

Hello,

    Please follow this link for information on how to get the shape name in Aspose.Slides.

I saw that you could use the alternative text in the help files, but I was hoping you could access the actual shape name not the alternative text.

Nevermind, i was able to.

I was hoping you would have something in the line of how charts are created now in PowerPoint 2007 not using OLE Object. The end user would still need to edit the charts.

thanks
