PowerPoint master styles and Picture class question

[Aram Mirzadeh <aw...@mbcli.com>]

Hi,

Two questions:

1) I'm adding in an image (png) to a slide, there doesn't seem to be a 
way of getting the width and height of the image via the Picture class. 
  Is there a class that I'm missing that can provide this or do I just 
have to read in the file seperately and figure out it's width and height 
so I can figure out placement?

2) A power point file usually has 1 "master" and a bunch of styles under 
that master.  How do I apply the styles from that master to a particular 
slide?

The reason I'm asking is that:

final SlideMaster[] master = ppt.getSlidesMasters();

master.length = 1;

So where are the sub-masters, or styles stored?

Thanks.

I would suggest that you create several different files, all quite simple 
but slight different, eg:
* same png, sized as small, medium and large
* default master styles, one style different, two styles different

For both the cases where you're not sure how things work

Then, use the dev tools to see how the files differ, and see which records 
are responsible.

Finally, do please feed back patches if you end up adding new 
functionality for your needs!

I still haven't been able to find anything further on this.  Is this 
something that is not implemented?
