Hello again,


I can see that the IHeaderFooterManager interface has SetFooterText method, but how should I add the text header to the presentation? And if is it possible to add an image to the header or footer?

Best regards,

Hi Evgen,

I have observed your requirements and like to share that the header text can only be set in NoteSlideView inside slide. For other slide views there is no header and for that reason it is not directly available in HeaderFooterManger. However, you can still set the header text but in NotesSlideView using following sample code. I hope this will help you.

public static void ManageHeader()
{
String path=@“C:\Aspose Data”;
Presentation presentation = new Presentation(path + “handout_header_footer.pptx”);

IMasterHandoutSlide masterHandoutSlide = presentation.MasterHandoutSlideManager.MasterHandoutSlide;
if (masterHandoutSlide != null)
updateHeaderFooterText(masterHandoutSlide);

IMasterNotesSlide masterNotesSlide = presentation.MasterNotesSlideManager.MasterNotesSlide;
if (null != masterNotesSlide)
updateHeaderFooterText(masterNotesSlide);

foreach(ISlide slide in presentation.Slides)
{
INotesSlide notesSlide = slide.NotesSlideManager.NotesSlide;
if (null != notesSlide)
updateHeaderFooterText(notesSlide);
}

presentation.Save(path + “handout_test.pptx”, SaveFormat.Pptx);
}

public static void updateHeaderFooterText(IBaseSlide master)
{
foreach (IShape shape in master.Shapes)
{
if (shape.Placeholder != null)
{
if (shape.Placeholder.Type == PlaceholderType.Header)
((IAutoShape)shape).TextFrame.Text=“HI there new header”;

if (shape.Placeholder.Type == PlaceholderType.Footer)
((IAutoShape)shape).TextFrame.Text=“HI there new footer”;
}
}
}

Many Thanks,

Hi Evgen,


I like to share that Aspose. Slides offers the property of shapes locking that you can use for adding watermark. Please visit this thread link for your kind reference. I also like to add that you can even add image as watermark and use the shape locking feature to set that as watermark on your presentation. Please visit this documentation link to see how to add the images inside the shapes.

Best Regards,

Thank you for your answer.


I can not find how to delete the shapes that was created as watermark, because I can not understand how to get correct shapes.

Could you please help.
