Add a slide based on the layouts defined in the master PPT document to the
report.
To view the layouts of the master PPT document, navigate to View > Slide Master as shown in the image below.
Note:
The slide layout options provided in the master document are aligned
with Microsoft PowerPoint's Slide Master Layouts. More layouts can be
added in the master document if necessary.
Tip: For more
information on how to add slide master and the corresponding slide
layouts, refer to Microsoft Office PowerPoint help.
All layouts must be grouped under one Slide master. If the master
document has more than one slide master, then only the layouts from the
first slide master are read by the solution.
While reading contents of Layouts from the PPT master document:
Only placeholders of type Text, Image, and Table are read. Other
placeholders such as Chart, SmartArt, and Media are not
supported.
If a layout contains more than one table placeholder and the split table
option is activated for more than one table, then only the first table
is split.
The Slide Layout options provided in the Altair master
document are:
Text Only: Adds a slide with text only.
Four Images Only: Adds a slide with four images.
One Image with Caption: Adds a slide with only one image and caption.
Three Images with Caption: Adds a slide with three images and captions.
