Hello,
I'm creating a PowerPoint slide using POI and I need to be able to copy and paste it to another presentation. I'm running into a problem where the title of the generated slide adopts a bulleted list style when copying it. Any ideas on how can I fix this? I tried both the production version (3.6-20091214) and the beta version (3.7-beta1-20100620).
To reproduce you can just run the following code:
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.model.Slide;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.model.TextBox;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.usermodel.SlideShow;
public class TestPPT {
/**
* @param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
try{
SlideShow slideShow = new SlideShow();
Slide slide = slideShow.createSlide();
TextBox title = slide.addTitle();
title.setText("Test Title");
FileOutputStream out =
new FileOutputStream("C:/slideshow.ppt");
slideShow.write(out);
out.close();
}catch(Exception e){}}
}
open the slideshow.ppt, select the slide, copy and paste it right there and you should see a new slide with a bullet list with one entry reading "Test Title". See below.
