Resizing DrawingML

Hi,

I have got a problem with set new value of height and width for existing DrawingML object. I’m trying to set new value of height with following simple code:

Document doc = new Document("D:\\tmp\\1.docx");
NodeCollection<?> shapes = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.DRAWING_ML, true);
for (int i = 0; i < shapes.getCount(); i++)
{
    DrawingML drawing = (DrawingML)shapes.get(i);
    drawing.setHeight(300);
}
doc.save("D:\\tmp\\2.docx");

After opening 2.docx the height of image in 2.docx seems to be unchanged, but when I drag the image (or change some properties of this image) the height will be changed to 300. Why in 2.docx the new value of height is not updated?
Regards and thank you in advance.

Hi Tahir,

Thank you for response. Generally it is our first project in Aspose.Word (we are using commercial Developer OEM license). The goal of this project is quite simple: generating one-sheet docx document what is generated from template, in finall document we have to replace image to a new one. The new one image has got different dimensions, so we have to use setHeight() and setWidth() methods. Thank you for reporting a new issue in tracking system. I would like to ask how long can take process of resolving this issue? Maybe there are some workarounds for this issue?
If you have some update about this issue please let me know.
Thank you for your help.

Hi there,

Thanks for your inquiry. I am afraid this issue has now been postponed till a later date due to some other important issues and new features. We will inform you as soon as there are any further developments. We apologize for your inconvenience.

Please try the following workaround at your side. Hope this helps you.

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "drawingML.docx");
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
for (DrawingML dml : (Iterable<DrawingML>)doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.DRAWING_ML, true))
{
    ByteArrayOutputStream dstStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    dml.getShapeRenderer().save(dstStream, new ImageSaveOptions(SaveFormat.PNG));
    ByteArrayInputStream srcStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(dstStream.toByteArray());
    Shape shape = builder.insertImage(srcStream);
    shape.setHeight(300);
    dml.remove();
}
doc.save(MyDir + "Out.docx");
