i am unable to extract the background for the first slide with the code you have provided:

import aspose.slides as slides
from aspose.pydrawing.imaging import ImageFormat

# slide_index = 2
scale = 1

with slides.Presentation("7.pptx") as presentation:
    slide_size = presentation.slide_size.size
    for slide_index in range(len(presentation.slides)):
        slide_to_be_copied = presentation.slides[slide_index]

        with slides.Presentation() as temp_presentation:
            temp_presentation.slide_size.set_size(
                slide_size.width, slide_size.height, 
                slides.SlideSizeScaleType.DO_NOT_SCALE)

            slide = temp_presentation.slides.add_clone(slide_to_be_copied)

            # Remove all shapes and leave only the slide background.
            slide.shapes.clear()

            with slide.get_thumbnail(scale, scale) as background:
                background.save("output"+str(slide_index)+".png", ImageFormat.png)

The output is not extracting background for the first slide.
