Adding content into existing shape via XHTMLtoPPTX

[pengppp11]

Hi

I'm now trying to convert well-formed html into pptx, and I think "XHTMLtoPPTX" as a good start point. I used the method "convertSingleSlide" to convert html fragments. As a result, the contents converted into the pptx are always in a new created shape according to "PARAGRAPH_SHAPE" in the class "XHTMLtoPPTX". but what I want is to convert those html into the existing shape like the shape for title or content in the title and content slide.

Can someone give me some suggestions ? Thanks a lot

Hello

I'm trying firstly to get a certain existing shape node via XPATH, e.g. "//p:sp[p:nvSpPr/p:nvPr/p:ph/@type='title']" to get the shape node for title, then I want to get corresponding shape object via the following code :

List<Object> nodeLists = slidePart.getJAXBNodesViaXPath(xpath, false);

for(Object o : nodeLists){
//System.out.println(nodeLists.size());
Shape shape =(Shape) ((JAXBElement) o).getValue();
}

but I got the Excepition : "org.pptx4j.pml.Shape cannot be cast to javax.xml.bind.JAXBElement", how can I solve this problem and to get the shape object. or is there another way to get a certain existing shape ? I appreciate someone could help me.

Looks like your Object o is already a Shape object, so ((JAXBElement) o) is causing that error.

Try:

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Show ]

Using java Syntax Highlighting

Shape shape =(Shape) o;
