How to make text block left justified show band across page

[dbrewerton]

Hello all, I'm trying to figure out how to make the Presentation component show a purple band across the entire width of the slide. The background (highlight) only goes as far as the text shows. Any attempt to use   or ALT-255 to build in spaces does not work. Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Sorry that I am not quite clear about your requirement. Could you please provide the excepted PPT file(you could create it by MS PowerPoint) for further investigation?

Hi,

Thanks for your information.
I created a file according to your example PPT file. Please refer to below code:

Code: Select all

            Presentation presentation = new Presentation();
            presentation.SlideSize.Size = new SizeF(960, 540);
            ISlide slide = presentation.Slides[0];
            var  shape = slide.Shapes.AppendShape(ShapeType.Rectangle, new RectangleF(20.57f, 181.1f, 333.25f, 32.91f));
            shape.Fill.FillType = FillFormatType.Solid;
            shape.Fill.SolidColor.Color = Color.Purple;
            shape.Line.FillType = FillFormatType.None;

            shape = slide.Shapes.AppendShape(ShapeType.Rectangle, new RectangleF(20.57f, 82.28f, 917.48f, 32.91f));
            shape.Fill.FillType = FillFormatType.Solid;
            shape.Fill.SolidColor.Color = Color.Purple;
            shape.Line.FillType = FillFormatType.None;

            presentation.SaveToFile("20114.pptx", FileFormat.Pptx2010);

Attached is my result.
