do we have any function to say if an object is a table just like has_table in python pptx?

@a0pro0b,
Thank you for contacting support. I am working on the question and will get back to you as soon as possible.

@a0pro0b,
You can use the standard Python isinstance function to check if a PowerPoint object is a table, as follows:

import aspose.slides as slides

with slides.Presentation("sample.pptx") as presentation:
    first_slide = presentation.slides[0]
    # Search for a table on the first slide.
    for shape in first_slide.shapes:
        if isinstance(shape, slides.Table):
            print("The table has been found.")

Thanks so much Andrey, it helps.
Another question, how to identify different auto shapes(such as textbox, rectangle, oval etc)? I know type gives you the type as “AutoShape” for all of them but I want a function(just like you shared the above solution) to distinguish all of them separately.
