System::SharedPtr<IGroupShape> Aspose::Slides::ShapeCollection::AddGroupShape() override

Return Value

The newly created IGroupShape.

Remarks

The following example shows how to add a group shape to a slide of PowerPoint Presentation.

// Instantiate Presentation class
auto pres = System::MakeObject<Presentation>();

// Get the first slide
auto slide = pres->get_Slides()->idx_get(0);
// Accessing the shape collection of slides
auto slideShapes = slide->get_Shapes();
// Adding a group shape to the slide
System::SharedPtr<IGroupShape> groupShape = slideShapes->AddGroupShape();

// Adding shapes inside added group shape
groupShape->get_Shapes()->AddAutoShape(ShapeType::Rectangle, 300.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f);
groupShape->get_Shapes()->AddAutoShape(ShapeType::Rectangle, 500.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f);
groupShape->get_Shapes()->AddAutoShape(ShapeType::Rectangle, 300.0f, 300.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f);
groupShape->get_Shapes()->AddAutoShape(ShapeType::Rectangle, 500.0f, 300.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f);
// Adding group shape frame
groupShape->set_Frame(System::MakeObject<ShapeFrame>(100.0f, 300.0f, 500.0f, 40.0f, NullableBool::False, NullableBool::False, 0.0f));

// Write the PPTX file to disk
pres->Save(u"GroupShape_out.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);

ShapeCollection::AddGroupShape(System::SharedPtr<ISvgImage>, float, float, float, float) method
