A Range of Charts For Your Linux Apps
The Python Word documents API now supports creating Treemaps, Sunbursts, Histograms, Pareto, Box and Whisker, Waterfall, and Funnel charts in your documents. Check out the following code samples, which demonstrate how to add different types of charts to your documents in Python.
Box and Whisker Chart:
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Insert a Box & Whisker chart.
shape = builder.insert_chart(chart_type=aw.drawing.charts.ChartType.BOX_AND_WHISKER, width=450, height=450)
chart = shape.chart
chart.title.text = 'Points by Years'
# Delete default generated series.
chart.series.clear()
# Add a series.
series = chart.series.add(series_name='Points by Years', categories=['WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'WC', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NR', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA', 'NA'], values=[91, 80, 100, 77, 90, 104, 105, 118, 120, 101, 114, 107, 110, 60, 79, 78, 77, 102, 101, 113, 94, 93, 84, 71, 80, 103, 80, 94, 100, 101])
# Show data labels.
series.has_data_labels = True
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Charts.BoxAndWhisker.docx')

Funnel Chart:
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Insert a Funnel chart.
shape = builder.insert_chart(chart_type=aw.drawing.charts.ChartType.FUNNEL, width=450, height=450)
chart = shape.chart
chart.title.text = 'Population by Age Group'
# Delete default generated series.
chart.series.clear()
# Add a series.
series = chart.series.add(series_name='Population by Age Group', categories=['0-9', '10-19', '20-29', '30-39', '40-49', '50-59', '60-69', '70-79', '80-89', '90-'], values=[0.121, 0.128, 0.132, 0.146, 0.124, 0.124, 0.111, 0.075, 0.032, 0.007])

Treemap Chart:
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Insert a Treemap chart.
shape = builder.insert_chart(chart_type=aw.drawing.charts.ChartType.TREEMAP, width=450, height=280)
chart = shape.chart
chart.title.text = 'World Population'
# Delete default generated series.
chart.series.clear()
# Add a series.
series = chart.series.add_multilevel_value(series_name='Population by Region', categories=[aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='China'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='India'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='Indonesia'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='Pakistan'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='Bangladesh'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='Japan'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='Philippines'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Asia', level2='Other'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Africa', level2='Nigeria'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Africa', level2='Ethiopia'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Africa', level2='Egypt'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Africa', level2='Other'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Europe', level2='Russia'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Europe', level2='Germany'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Europe', level2='Other'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Latin America', level2='Brazil'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Latin America', level2='Mexico'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Latin America', level2='Other'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Northern America', level2='United States'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Northern America', level2='Other'), aw.drawing.charts.ChartMultilevelValue(level1='Oceania')], values=[1409670000, 1400744000, 279118866, 241499431, 169828911, 123930000, 112892781, 764000000, 223800000, 107334000, 105914499, 903000000, 146150789, 84607016, 516000000, 203080756, 129713690, 310000000, 335893238, 35000000, 42000000])

Control Shadow Colors Easily
Effortlessly control shadow color changes using this release of our API on Linux machines. The updated ShadowFormat class contains a new color property to access and modify shadow colors, as illustrated in this code example.
doc = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Shadow color.docx')
shape = doc.get_child(aw.NodeType.SHAPE, 0, True).as_shape()
self.assertEqual(aspose.pydrawing.Color.red.to_argb(), shape.shadow_format.color.to_argb())

Fine-tuned Document Comparisons in Python
Utilize the advanced document comparison options and data analysis features using the newly added AdvancedCompareOptions class in the most recent Python API release. Here is how you can use these advanced options in Python.
doc_a = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Document with SDT 1.docx')
doc_b = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Document with SDT 2.docx')
# Configure options to compare SDT with same content but different store item id.
compare_options = aw.comparing.CompareOptions()
compare_options.advanced_options.ignore_store_item_id = False
doc_a.compare(doc_b, "user", datetime.now(), compare_options)
self.assertEqual(8, doc_a.revisions.count)
compare_options.advanced_options.ignore_store_item_id = True
doc_a.revisions.reject_all()
doc_a.compare(doc_b, "user", datetime.now(), compare_options)
self.assertEqual(0, doc_a.revisions.count)

We have added a new property, date_time_utc, in the Comment class for accurately fetching comment addition time with Comment.DateTimeUtc. This is highlighted in the following Python code snippet.
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
date = datetime.now()
comment = aw.Comment(doc, 'John Doe', 'J.D.', date)
comment.set_text('My comment.')
builder.current_paragraph.append_child(comment)
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Comment.UtcDateTime.docx')
doc = aw.Document(ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Comment.UtcDateTime.docx')
comment = doc.get_child(aw.NodeType.COMMENT, 0, True).as_comment()
# DateTimeUtc return data without milliseconds.
self.assertEqual(date.astimezone(timezone.utc).strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"), comment.date_time_utc.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))
