Presentation Header and Footer

Aspose.Slides provides support to work with slide’s headers and footers text that are actually maintained on Slide master level.

Aspose.Slides for .NET provides the feature for managing headers and footers inside presentation slides. These are in fact managed on the presentation master level.

Manage Header and Footer Text

Notes of some specific slide could be updated as shown in the example below:

// Load Presentation
Presentation pres = new Presentation("headerTest.pptx");

// Setting Footer
pres.HeaderFooterManager.SetAllFootersText("My Footer text");
pres.HeaderFooterManager.SetAllFootersVisibility(true);

// Access and Update Header
IMasterNotesSlide masterNotesSlide = pres.MasterNotesSlideManager.MasterNotesSlide;
if (null != masterNotesSlide)
{
	UpdateHeaderFooterText(masterNotesSlide);
}

// Save presentation
pres.Save("HeaderFooterJava.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);

// Method to set Header/Footer Text
public static void UpdateHeaderFooterText(IBaseSlide master)
{
    foreach (IShape shape in master.Shapes)
    {
        if (shape.Placeholder != null)
        {
            if (shape.Placeholder.Type == PlaceholderType.Header)
            {
                ((IAutoShape)shape).TextFrame.Text = "HI there new header";
            }
        }
    }
}

		headerFooterManager.SetDateTimeAndChildDateTimesText("Date and time text"); // set text to master notes slide and all child Date and time placeholders
	}

	// Change Header and Footer settings for first notes slide only
	INotesSlide notesSlide = presentation.Slides[0].NotesSlideManager.NotesSlide;
	if (notesSlide != null)
	{
		INotesSlideHeaderFooterManager headerFooterManager = notesSlide.HeaderFooterManager;
		if (!headerFooterManager.IsHeaderVisible)
			headerFooterManager.SetHeaderVisibility(true); // make this notes slide Header placeholder visible

		if (!headerFooterManager.IsFooterVisible)
			headerFooterManager.SetFooterVisibility(true); // make this notes slide Footer placeholder visible

		if (!headerFooterManager.IsSlideNumberVisible)
			headerFooterManager.SetSlideNumberVisibility(true); // make this notes slide SlideNumber placeholder visible

		if (!headerFooterManager.IsDateTimeVisible)
			headerFooterManager.SetDateTimeVisibility(true); // make this notes slide Date-time placeholder visible

		headerFooterManager.SetHeaderText("New header text"); // set text to notes slide Header placeholder
		headerFooterManager.SetFooterText("New footer text"); // set text to notes slide Footer placeholder
