Delete Cropped Areas from a Picture Frame

Introduction

You can use the CompressImage method to delete cropped areas from a picture frame. This can help you reduce the size of the presentation. However, keep in mind that the method converts the picture to PNG format, which may increase the image size in some cases.

The method requires a presentation file name, slide index, and shape index. The shape must be a picture frame, or you will get an exception. You should set the deletePictureCroppedAreas parameter to true, and you can optionally specify the image resolution.

Below is an example of using the CompressImage method.

SDKs

Using an SDK (API client) is the quickest way for a developer to speed up the development. An SDK takes care of a lot of low-level details of making requests and handling responses and lets you focus on writing code specific to your particular project. Check out our GitHub repository for a complete list of Aspose.Slides Cloud SDKs along with working examples, to get you started in no time. Please check Available SDKs article to learn how to add an SDK to your project.

SDK Examples

string fileName = "MyPresentation.pptx";
int slideIndex = 2;
int shapeIndex = 4;
SlidesApi api = new SlidesApi("MyClientId", "MyClientSecret");
api.CompressImage(fileName, slideIndex, shapeIndex, null, true);

Java

String fileName = "MyPresentation.pptx";
int slideIndex = 2;
int shapeIndex = 4;
SlidesApi api = new SlidesApi("MyClientId", "MyClientSecret");
api.compressImage(fileName, slideIndex, shapeIndex, null, true, null, null, null);

PHP

use Aspose\Slides\Cloud\Sdk\Api\Configuration;
use Aspose\Slides\Cloud\Sdk\Api\SlidesApi;

$config = new Configuration();
$config->setAppSid("MyClientId");
$config->setAppKey("MyClientSecret");
$api = new SlidesApi(null, $config);

$fileName = "MyPresentation.pptx";
$slideIndex = 2;
$shapeIndex = 4;

$api->CompressImage($fileName, $slideIndex, $shapeIndex, null, true);

Ruby

Python

import asposeslidescloud

from asposeslidescloud.configuration import Configuration
from asposeslidescloud.apis.slides_api import SlidesApi

configuration = Configuration()
configuration.app_sid = 'MyClientId'
configuration.app_key = 'MyClientSecret'
api = SlidesApi(configuration)

file_name = "MyPresentation.pptx"
slide_index = 2
shape_index = 4

api.compress_image(file_name, slide_index, shape_index, None, True)

Node.js

const CloudSdk = require("asposeslidescloud");
const api = new CloudSdk.SlidesApi("MyClientId", "MyClientSecret");

const fileName = "MyPresentation.pptx";
const slideIndex = 2;
const shapeIndex = 4;

cfg.AppSid = "MyClientId"
cfg.AppKey = "MyClientSecret"
api := asposeslidescloud.NewAPIClient(cfg)

fileName := "MyPresentation.pptx"
var slideIndex int32 = 2
var shapeIndex int32 = 4

var deletePictureCroppedAreas bool = true
_, e := api.SlidesApi.CompressImage(fileName, slideIndex, shapeIndex, nil, &deletePictureCroppedAreas, "", "", "")
if e != nil {
	fmt.Printf("Error: %v.", e)
