Gradient From Center Problem

Aspose.Slides Product Family
#1

Hi,

the following code produces the attached ppt.
But the from center option gives different visual in Powerpoint

Note : I am using 1.7.4 java slides.

try
 {
    //Instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPT file        
    Presentation pres = new Presentation(new FileInputStream(new File(“source.ppt”)));


    //Accessing a slide using its slide position
    Slide slide = pres.getSlideByPosition(1);


    //Disable following master background settings
    slide.setFollowMasterBackground(false);


    //Setting the fill type of the background to gradient
    slide.getBackground().getFillFormat().setType(FillType.GRADIENT);


    //Setting the type of the gradient color
    slide.getBackground().getFillFormat().setGradientColorType(GradientColorType.ONE_COLOR);


    //Setting the gradient style
    slide.getBackground().getFillFormat().setGradientStyle(GradientStyle.FROM_CENTER);    


    //Setting the background color to blue
    slide.getBackground().getFillFormat().setForeColor(java.awt.Color.BLUE);


    //Setting the degree of the gradient
    // slide.getBackground().getFillFormat().setGradientDegree(18);


    //Writing the presentation as a PPT file
    pres.write(new FileOutputStream(new File(“modified.ppt”)));
 }
 catch(Exception ex)
 {
    System.out.println(ex.toString());
 }

Hi,

I have opened the modified.ppt in openoffice impress it brings the correct visual so it seems to be a bug in PowerPoint XP not in aspose.slides.

Anyway thanks

This is your presentation looks like when I open it in MS-PowerPoint 2002.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
