I have the following questions and requests:
- Do you have a Programmer's guide for the Aspose.Slides.Pptx namespace (one similar to the programmer's guide for the Aspose.slides namespace)? If not would you create one? It would help a lot in learning how to use your software for powerpoint 2007 if you provide a guide or examples how to use the API. It is very important for you to provide a guide since the API for Aspose.Slides.Pptx namespace has changed a lot from the Aspose.Slides API.
- Is there any technical issue that limits you from providing a default constructor for the PresentationEx class? Sometimes I just need an PresentationEx object to clone from an existing presentation. Why do I even need to have an empty pptx file in order to create a PresentationEx object?
- Can you provide some estimate when would you be able to provide a method to create images (thumbnails) of slides? This would be similar to the Slide.getThmbnail(...) in the Presentation class.
- It appears that the Slides.AddClone(...) method failed to clone some more complex slides with graphs in it. I posted examples of these slides in this forum today. Please let us know how soon you can fix them.
We have been using Aspose.Slides to handle Powerpoint 2003 presentation files and it has been working well. Our company is in the process of upgrading to Powerpoint 2007. The last two items are really preventing us to use Aspose to handle Presenations. We tried to get around these problems by temporarily saving our 2007 presentations as 2003 presentations to see if our existing code would work. However, when we do this, we find some parts of the slides (like secondary x axis) became blurry. It is not clear if this problem in inherent in Microsoft's Powerpoint. Perhaps saving from 2007 into 2003 loses some image quality?
