Public API Changes
Interface Aspose.Slides.Charts.IErrorBarsFormat has been added
Represents error bars of chart series.
In case of custom value type to specify value use ErrorBarCustomValues property of specific data point in DataPoins collection of series.  

using (Presentation pres = new Presentation())
{
   IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.Bubble, 50, 50, 400, 300, true);

   IErrorBarsFormat errBarX = chart.ChartData.Series[0].ErrorBarsXFormat;
   IErrorBarsFormat errBarY = chart.ChartData.Series[0].ErrorBarsYFormat;

   errBarX.IsVisible = true;
   errBarY.IsVisible = true;

   errBarX.ValueType = ErrorBarValueType.Fixed;
   errBarX.Value = 0.1f;

   errBarY.ValueType = ErrorBarValueType.Percentage;
   errBarY.Value = 5;

   errBarX.Type = ErrorBarType.Plus;

   errBarY.Format.Line.Width = 2;

   errBarX.HasEndCap = true;

   pres.Save("ErrorBars.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);
}
Interface Aspose.Slides.Charts.IErrorBarsCustomValues has been added
In case when IErrorBarsFormat.ValueType property is equal Custom to specify value use ErrorBarCustomValues property of specific data point in DataPoints collection of series.  

using (Presentation pres = new Presentation())
{
   IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.Bubble, 50, 50, 400, 300, true);
   IChartSeries series = chart.ChartData.Series[0];

   IErrorBarsFormat errBarX = series.ErrorBarsXFormat;
   IErrorBarsFormat errBarY = series.ErrorBarsYFormat;

   errBarX.IsVisible = true;
   errBarY.IsVisible = true;

   errBarX.ValueType = ErrorBarValueType.Custom;
   errBarY.ValueType = ErrorBarValueType.Custom;

   IChartDataPointCollection points = series.DataPoints;

   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForXPlusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;
   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForXMinusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;
   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForYPlusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;
   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForYMinusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;

   for (int i = 0; i < points.Count; i++)
   {
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.XMinus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.XPlus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.YMinus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.YPlus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
   }

   pres.Save("ErrorBarsCustomValues", SaveFormat.Pptx);
}
Interface Aspose.Slides.Charts.IDataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues has been added
Specifies types of values in ChartDataPoint.ErrorBarsCustomValues properties list.

using (Presentation pres = new Presentation())
{
   IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.Bubble, 50, 50, 400, 300, true);
   IChartSeries series = chart.ChartData.Series[0];

   IErrorBarsFormat errBarX = series.ErrorBarsXFormat;
   IErrorBarsFormat errBarY = series.ErrorBarsYFormat;

   errBarX.IsVisible = true;
   errBarY.IsVisible = true;

   errBarX.ValueType = ErrorBarValueType.Custom;
   errBarY.ValueType = ErrorBarValueType.Custom;

   IChartDataPointCollection points = series.DataPoints;

   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForXPlusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;
   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForXMinusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;
   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForYPlusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;
   points.DataSourceTypeForErrorBarsCustomValues.DataSourceTypeForYMinusValues = DataSourceType.DoubleLiterals;

   for (int i = 0; i < points.Count; i++)
   {
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.XMinus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.XPlus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.YMinus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
       points[i].ErrorBarsCustomValues.YPlus.AsLiteralDouble = i + 1;
   }

   pres.Save("ErrorBarsCustomValues", SaveFormat.Pptx);
}
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.AddClone(...), .InsertClone(...) methods had been added
The methods
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.AddClone(IShape sourceShape)
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.AddClone(IShape sourceShape, float x, float y)
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.AddClone(IShape sourceShape, float x, float y, float width, float height)
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.InsertClone(int index, IShape sourceShape)
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.InsertClone(int index, IShape sourceShape, float x, float y)
Aspose.Slides.IShapeCollection.InsertClone(int index, IShape sourceShape, float x, float y, float width, float height)
adds/inserts a copy of a specified shape into the collection. Example of using:

using (Presentation srcPres = new Presentation(dataPath_ShapeCloning + "Source Frame.pptx"))
{
   IShapeCollection sourceShapes = srcPres.Slides[0].Shapes;

   ILayoutSlide blankLayout = srcPres.Masters[0].LayoutSlides.GetByType(SlideLayoutType.Blank);
   ISlide destSlide = srcPres.Slides.AddEmptySlide(blankLayout);
   IShapeCollection destShapes = destSlide.Shapes;

   destShapes.AddClone(sourceShapes[1], 50, 150 + sourceShapes[0].Height);
   destShapes.AddClone(sourceShapes[2]);
   destShapes.AddClone(sourceShapes[3], 50, 200, 50, 50);
   destShapes.AddClone(sourceShapes[4]);
   destShapes.AddClone(sourceShapes[5], 300, 300, 50, 200);
   destShapes.InsertClone(0, sourceShapes[0], 50, 150);
}
Added ViewType enum, IViewProperties interface, ViewProperties class and IPresentation.ViewProperties property
IPresentation.ViewProperty allows changing presentation view type and notes visibility when a presentation is opened in PowerPoint.

using(Presentation p = new Presentation())
{
   p.ViewProperties.LastView = ViewType.SlideMasterView;
}
