Take your MacOS ARM64/M1-powered Python applications to the next level with the latest release of Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET (v24.8).
Add Picture Fills to Presentations
With the newest Python PowerPoint API release, you can unleash appealing presentations with optimized picture-fill capabilities. Apply precise texture positioning and shape scaling by leveraging tile properties.
Code example for adding a rectangle shape with a tiled picture fill:
import aspose.slides as slides
with slides.Presentation() as pres:
first_slide = pres.slides[0]
new_image = slides.Images.from_file("image.png")
pp_image = pres.images.add_image(new_image)
# Adds the new Rectangle shape
new_shape = first_slide.shapes.add_auto_shape(slides.ShapeType.RECTANGLE, 0, 0, 350, 350)
# Sets the fill type of the new shape to Picture
new_shape.fill_format.fill_type = slides.FillType.PICTURE
# Sets the shape's fill image
picture_fill_format = new_shape.fill_format.picture_fill_format
picture_fill_format.picture.image = pp_image
# Sets the picture fill mode to Tile and changes the properties
picture_fill_format.picture_fill_mode = slides.PictureFillMode.Tile
picture_fill_format.tile_offset_x = -275
picture_fill_format.tile_offset_y = -247
picture_fill_format.tile_scale_x = 25
picture_fill_format.tile_scale_y = 15
picture_fill_format.tile_alignment = slides.RectangleAlignment.BOTTOM_RIGHT
picture_fill_format.tile_flip = slides.TileFlip.FLIP_BOTH
pres.save("Tile.pptx", slides.export.SaveFormat.PPTX)

Easily Fetch Font Data in Apple Mac
Enjoy finer control over font processing in Python presentations with the newly introduced get_font_bytes method. It fetches font data in the form of byte arrays for different font styles.
Code example to retrieve binary font data:
import aspose.slides as slides
import aspose.pydrawing as drawing
with slides.Presentation("Presentation.pptx") as pres:
# Retrieve all fonts used in the presentation
fonts = pres.fonts_manager.get_fonts()
# Get the byte array representing the regular style of the first font in the presentation
font_bytes = pres.fonts_manager.get_font_bytes(fonts[0], drawing.FontStyle.REGULAR)

Here is an example of code to retrieve the embedding level of fonts:
import aspose.slides as slides
import aspose.pydrawing as drawing
with slides.Presentation("Presentation.pptx") as pres:
# Retrieve all fonts used in the presentation
fonts = pres.fonts_manager.get_fonts()
# Get the byte array representing the regular style of the first font in the presentation
font_bytes = pres.fonts_manager.get_font_bytes(fonts[0], drawing.FontStyle.REGULAR)
# Determine the embedding level of the font
embedding_level = pres.fonts_manager.get_font_embedding_level(font_bytes, fonts[0].font_name)
