autosize text

[desigennaro]

If the text is too large to fit in the box I would like it to automatically make the font size smaller. I assume that autoFit would be used, but I have been unable to get it working.

@desigennaro Hi, I need more informations.

Have you got a sample source code for testing ?
Which writer do you use ?

Thanks :)

Our code is on a development network, but I have included a sample below. We are writing a PPTX file.

$shape = $slide->createRichTextShape()
  ->setHeight(150)
  ->setWidth(350)
  ->setAutoFit( 'spAutoFit' );
$textRun = $shape->createTextRun( $text );
$textRun->getFont()->setSize(14);

Also, when using "normAutoFit" or "RichText::AUTOFIT_NORMAL" I get the following error upon opening the PPTX.

"PowerPoint found content in *filename.pptx" that it did not understand. This content has been removed and cannot be recovered."

@desigennaro Have you tried to use this ?

->setHorizontalOverflow(RichText::OVERFLOW_CLIP)
->setVerticalOverflow(RichText::OVERFLOW_CLIP)
// or / and
->setWrap(RichText::WRAP_SQUARE)

[desigennaro]

Yes, but I do not want the text to be cut off. My goal is to have the font size automatically decrease to allow all of the text to fit in the text box. I assumed (and I could be completely wrong) that is what one of the features of autofit is.

I also assumed that wrap was to set how the text wraps around a shape it may come in connection with.

@desigennaro Have you a PPTX file which has that feature ? I want to analyze it.

PS : I haven't got Office :(

[desigennaro]

@Progi1984 how would you like me to get the file to you? I am unable to upload it here. It is a PPTX file. I suppose you can unzip it and look at the xml....does that help?

[Progi1984]

@desigennaro You can send me by mail (my nickname @ GMail Dot Com).

First slide is with autosizing, second slide is without. Same text.

[Progi1984]

@desigennaro Wow... I just try with parameters for normAutoFit but no works.

For this :
Replace in src\PhpPowerpoint\Writer\PowerPoint2007\Slide.php

$objWriter->writeElement('a:' . $shape->getAutoFit(), null);

by

$objWriter->startElement('a:' . $shape->getAutoFit());
if($shape->getAutoFit() == RichText::AUTOFIT_NORMAL){
  $objWriter->writeAttribute('fontScale', '47500');
  $objWriter->writeAttribute('lnSpcReduction', '20000');
}
$objWriter->endElement();

Hi Progi,

I would like to create a Shape, (i don't know contents before), so i put a ridiculous height

$shape->setHeight(10)->setWidth(915)->setOffsetX(25)->setOffsetY(248)->setAutoFit( RichText::AUTOFIT_NORMAL );

After that i populate my shape with a long long text with createTextRun!

$textRun = $shape->createTextRun("Profitez de la bien nommée Costa del Sol en séjournant à Torremolinos à l'hôtel Amaragua. Son emplacement des plus agréables au bord d’une grande plage favorise un séjour en toute quiétude, à quelques pas seulement de l’animation.");

On the pptx generated, my shape have 10 height value can we create a shape with a textRun who have dynamic height ?

PS: I've tried your patch its seems it's didn't work, sry for my bad english

[Progi1984]

@Gyzmoo Yes, I know that my patch doesn't work... It's a WIP so I try fixing that without PowerPoint.

For a shape with dynamic height, please create a new issue. Thanks.
