Examples

Shows how to insert a shape with an image from the local file system into a document.

auto doc = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>();

// The "Shape" class's public constructor will create a shape with "ShapeMarkupLanguage.Vml" markup type.
// If you need to create a shape of a non-primitive type, such as SingleCornerSnipped, TopCornersSnipped, DiagonalCornersSnipped,
// TopCornersOneRoundedOneSnipped, SingleCornerRounded, TopCornersRounded, or DiagonalCornersRounded,
// please use DocumentBuilder.InsertShape.
auto shape = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Drawing::Shape>(doc, Aspose::Words::Drawing::ShapeType::Image);
shape->get_ImageData()->SetImage(get_ImageDir() + u"Windows MetaFile.wmf");
shape->set_Width(100);
shape->set_Height(100);

doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->get_FirstParagraph()->AppendChild<System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::Drawing::Shape>>(shape);

doc->Save(get_ArtifactsDir() + u"Image.FromFile.docx");

Shows how Aspose.Words identify shapes.

auto doc = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>();
auto builder = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::DocumentBuilder>(doc);

builder->InsertShape(Aspose::Words::Drawing::ShapeType::Heptagon, Aspose::Words::Drawing::RelativeHorizontalPosition::Page, 0, Aspose::Words::Drawing::RelativeVerticalPosition::Page, 0, 0, 0, Aspose::Words::Drawing::WrapType::None);

builder->InsertShape(Aspose::Words::Drawing::ShapeType::Cloud, Aspose::Words::Drawing::RelativeHorizontalPosition::RightMargin, 0, Aspose::Words::Drawing::RelativeVerticalPosition::Page, 0, 0, 0, Aspose::Words::Drawing::WrapType::None);

builder->InsertShape(Aspose::Words::Drawing::ShapeType::MathPlus, Aspose::Words::Drawing::RelativeHorizontalPosition::RightMargin, 0, Aspose::Words::Drawing::RelativeVerticalPosition::Page, 0, 0, 0, Aspose::Words::Drawing::WrapType::None);

// To correct identify shape types you need to work with shapes as DML.
auto saveOptions = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Saving::OoxmlSaveOptions>(Aspose::Words::SaveFormat::Docx);
// "Strict" or "Transitional" compliance allows to save shape as DML.
saveOptions->set_Compliance(Aspose::Words::Saving::OoxmlCompliance::Iso29500_2008_Transitional);

doc->Save(get_ArtifactsDir() + u"Shape.ShapeTypes.docx", saveOptions);
doc = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>(get_ArtifactsDir() + u"Shape.ShapeTypes.docx");

System::ArrayPtr<System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::Drawing::Shape>> shapes = doc->GetChildNodes(Aspose::Words::NodeType::Shape, true)->LINQ_OfType<System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::Drawing::Shape> >()->LINQ_ToArray();

for (System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::Drawing::Shape> shape : shapes)
{
    std::cout << System::EnumGetName(shape->get_ShapeType()) << std::endl;
}
