 |
|
Hello NG,
I use the following steps to open and display a PowerPoint presentation from
within my application:
- create an instance of TPowerPointApplication
- create an instance of TPowerPointPresentation
- connect instance of TPowerPointPresentation to instance of
TPowerPointApplication
- load presentation
- set properties of presentation
- start presentation
Everything works fine with the exception that I can't define which window is
used to actually render the presentation. Every time i open a presentation
it is displayed in a newly created window and that's not exactly what I had
in mind. I want to display the presentation inside a TPanel component on my
main window.
My question is: is there a way to define the "container" window for the
PowerPoint presentation? I toyed around with the different properties
(interfaces) of TPowerPointApplication and TPowerPointPresentation (like
Windows, SlideShowWindow e.g.) but didn't find a way specify the window used
by the presentation. The only thing I got working is moving and resizing the
presentation window. But that's also kind of awkward because values for
position and size have to be given in points instead of pixels...
I hope this is the right group to ask this question. Sorry if not.
Thanks,
Axel |

Hoi Axel
It is the right newsgroup, but it is the wrong news server.
You need to repost your message on the Borland news server to make
everybody see it and possibly answer your message.
