Specifying your own tag value can help you to identify where an issue occurred during presentation generation.

Examples

Center a Title Paragraph

The presentation title page in the PPT API default template is to left-justify the title. This example overrides that default by centering the paragraph.

Create a presentation and add a title slide.

import mlreportgen.ppt.*

ppt = Presentation('myHAlignPresentation.pptx');
open(ppt);
titleSlide = add(ppt,'Title Slide');

Create a centered paragraph.

p = Paragraph('Title for First Slide');
p.Style = {HAlign('center')};

Add the paragraph to the slide, generate the presentation, and open myHAlignPresentation.

replace(titleSlide,'Title',p);

close(ppt);
rptview(ppt);
