IB2017 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I am trying to add two elements to an existing PowerPoint if a specific term (in my example "transformation" is found: 1) a text object and with a red background (no transparency) and 2) a note/comment. I manage to do 1) but can't find the option to set the background but I fail completely on point 2). Any suggestion?
#!perl use strict; use warnings; use utf8; use Cwd; use Win32::OLE; use Win32::OLE 'CP_UTF8'; use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft PowerPoint'; $Win32::OLE::Warn = 3; $Win32::OLE::CP = CP_UTF8; my $file = "original.pptx"; my $dir = getcwd(); my $filename = $dir . '\\' . $file; print ("Starting PowerPoint\n"); my $process = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Powerpoint.Application') || Win32::OLE->new('Powerpoint.Application', 'Quit'); print ( "Opening '$filename'\n" ); my $ppt = $process->Presentations->Open($filename); $file =~ s/original/TCF6203/; $filename = "$dir/$file"; my @activeslides = $process->ActivePresentation->Slides->in; foreach my $slide (@activeslides) { my $name = $slide->{Name}; foreach my $shape ($slide->Shapes->in){ if ($shape->TextFrame->HasText){ #TO DO: to get all elements I sho +uld create a loop here if ($shape->HasTextFrame){ my $text = $shape->TextFrame->TextRange->Text; print "$name\nText $text = "; if ($text =~ /transformation/){ my $TextBox=$slide->Shapes->AddTextbox({Orientation=>1, Left=>5, Top=>5, Width=>250, Height=>250, }); $TextBox->TextFrame->TextRange->{Text} ="Big Ole Test"; #$slide->NotesPage->TextRange->{Text} ="Big Ole Test"; #CO +MMENT OUT TO TRY TO ADD NOTE/COMMENT print "OK\n"; } else { print "NOTHING TO DO\n"; }; } } } } print ( "Saving '$filename'\n" ); $ppt->SaveAs($filename);
