Public API and Backwards Incompatible Changes
Aspose.Slides.ShapeThumbnailBounds enumeration and Aspose.Slides.IShape.GetThumbnail() methods have been added
The methods GetThumbnail() and GetThumbnail(ShapeThumbnailBounds bounds, float scaleX, float scaleY) allow to create a separate shape thumbnail. ShapeThumbnailBounds enumeration defines possible shape thumbnail bounds types.
Property UniqueId has been added to Aspose.Slides.IShape
Aspose.Slides.IShape.UniqueId property gets unique in a presentation scope shape identifier. These unique identifiers are stored in a shape custom tags.
Signature of the SetGroupingItem method has been changed in IChartCategoryLevelsManager
Signature of the IChartCategoryLevelsManager method
void SetGroupingItem(int level, IChartDataCell value);
is obsolete now and replaced with signature
void SetGroupingItem(int level, object value);
Now calls like
.SetGroupingItem(1, workbook.GetCell(0, "A2", "Group 1"));
must be changed with calls like
.SetGroupingItem(1, "Group 1");
Pass value like "Group 1" into SetGroupingItem but not value of type IChartDataCell. Constructing of IChartDataCell with defined worksheet, row and column for category levels must satisfy some requirements and has been incapsulated in "SetGroupingItem(int, object)" method.
SlideId property has been added to Aspose.Slides.IBaseSlide interface
Property SlideId gets an unique slide identifier.
SoundName property has been added to ISlideShowTransition
Read-write string. Specifies a human readable name for the sound of the transition. The Sound property must be assigned to get or set the sound name. This name appears in the PowerPoint user interface when configuring the transition sound manually. May throw PptxException when the Sound property is not assigned.
Type of ChartSeriesGroup.Type property has been changed
Type of ChartSeriesGroup.Type property has been changed from ChartType enumeration to new CombinableSeriesTypesGroup enumeration. CombinableSeriesTypesGroup enum represents the groups of combinable series types.
