I was looking for a way to “Mark as decorative” an image inserted into a document via Aspose API to tackle an accessibility issue. This thread and especially your last reply gave me an answer, partially.
As mentioned in point #2, found an enhancement line item with key WORDSNET-21596 in the may release notes of this year (ie 21.5). But, couldn’t get an example or reference to the exact API, how to use it. It would be greatly appreciated if thats been shared.
We have logged a new ticket for your requirement as WORDSNET-22397 in our issue tracking system. We will inform you via this forum thread once there is any update available on it. We apologize for your inconvenience.
Appreciate your quick response with a tracking Id. Can i assume that, when this tracking ID gets to a completion, there would be an example in your offical documentation on how to insert a decorative shape in word document?
This question comes because, my actual ask was to provide an example or an API reference to mark a shape as decorative, since that was a recent enhancement came out in 21.5 release (last month). If there is a possiblity to share that earliest, i can explore myself on the solution instead of waiting for the tracking issue to be complete. Thanks!
