Hi There,
Im using ASPOSE SLIDES 15.8.0 for Java. Im trying to merge data from a different source to a template presentation. The template contains some predefined shapes, and depending on those shapes im trying to add data to the template. This all works pretty nice for all common textholders and I’m also able to find Table shapes, but I can’t seem to find charts. Below there is a generic snippet of code that im using and I have attached the template file that Im loading and searching through. What am I looking for? Is there another approach that I should use?
Example snippet:
//get and open the template file
Presentation pres = getNewPresentation();
ISlideCollection presslds = pres.getSlides();
for(int i=0; i<presslds.size(); i++){
ISlide slide = presslds.get_Item(i);
IShapeCollection shapes = slide.getShapes();
for (int s=0; s < shapes.size(); s++){
IShape shp = shapes.get_Item(s);
if (shp.isTextHolder()){
IAutoShape ashape = (IAutoShape) shp;
` ITextFrame tf = ashape.getTextFrame();
//WORKS
//DO MY LOGIC HERE
}else if (shp instanceof ITable){
ITable tbl = (ITable)shp;
//WORKS
//DO MY LOGIC HERE
}else if (shp instanceof Chart){
//CANT FIND THE CHART
System.out.println(“Found a Chart shape!”);
}else if (shp instanceof IChart){
//CANT FIND THE ICHART
System.out.println(“Found a Chart shape!”);
System.out.println(“Found a Chart shape!”);
}
}
}
