Is there a way by which we can check if animations are built into
the power point?
Is there a mechanism using POI to check if slide transitions and
builds/animations are present in the power point file? I am not looking for
a method to convert those animations but i am creating an application in
which i want to recognize if the power point file has any kinda animations
and if present, i want to display a message stating on conversion, those
animations would be lost.
By builds i mean the simple transition of text with bullets from right to
left etc...
Thanks
Karthik

In poi, it's src/scratchpad/src/org/apache/poi/hslf/record/RecordTypes.java
There's also the microsoft binary file format specs, which were released
earlier this year

I am just curious to know if there is a list of record types documented
somewhere that i can reference?
Thanks

Not sure if there is yet, but a simple thing to do would be to create
two short files, one with a transition and one without, and see what
records differ between them. Finally, look for those records :)
