I'm trying to parse a PPTX file and get the slide durations and slide transition times.
I often come across XML like the one shown below.
How does one extract the slide transition time from this snippet?
It seems that the value of "p14:dur" would be the length of the transition.
However, I've found that this value is not accurate.
Are there any descriptions of the "spd" attribute?
I've tried searching the web, but haven't found what 'spd="slow"' might mean.
<mc:AlternateContent xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:p14="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/powerpoint/2010/main">
<mc:Choice Requires="p14">
<p:transition spd="slow" p14:dur="2000" advTm="18026"/>
</mc:Choice>
<mc:Fallback xmlns="">
<p:transition spd="slow" advTm="18026"/>
</mc:Fallback>
</mc:AlternateContent>
According to Office Open XML the advTm is the amount of time the slide is shown. dur seems to be the duration of the animation for a given slide.
Look into OOXML(Microsoft seems to be the leader here)

Some colleagues and I are working on the Google Slide Add-On called Refine. In this add-on we utilize the google slide API. To improve our product we are in need of detailed information of the position of the text within a box. Sometimes the text boundaries are outside of the actual page element (see figure 1), and other times it is within the boundaries of the page element overflowing(see figure 2).
Figure 1
Figure 2
What we would highly appreciate is data points on the text boundaries, see figure 3 and 4 for an example of what kind of boundary information we would like. The boundaries we would like information about are the dashed lines.

Figure 4
We've looked a lot into the api documentation but could not find any place this data points. It is natural for us to think that this could be part of TextRange, but as we understand it this service is currently missing.
We would highly appreciate this feature and I would love to give you some more information if wanted. With this feature in place, we are able to increase the value offering of our add-on a lot.
Looking for some help or to be pointed in the right direction. Been stuck on this for a while and the main issue is I don't even know where to start. I am sure there is a solution but my brain will not see it.
To use as an example I have a table that shows monthly results for multiple different areas:
What I want to do is in the gap along side each number is show an increase, decrease or no change, using up arrow down arrow and square. That I can do using conditional formatting my issue comes with the fact that I also want it to be multiple Colours. So it will take into account increase and decrease and whether they are in target.See below:
Atm I am copying and pasting each month. But having it automated would be amazing. The outcome would hopefully look like this:
I am hoping there is a way that I can do two things compare to the previous month and then check it against my table to see where it sits then display the appropriate symbol.
Thank you in advance for any help or a place to start.
So extremely easy to figure out once I looked at it in a simplistic way.
Firstly, I used: =IF(-SIGN(E26-G26)= 0, "n", IF(-SIGN(E26-G26)=1, "é", IF(-SIGN(E26-G26)=-1, "ê","")))
To compare the current number to the previous number and get a 1, 0 or -1 depending on if it had gone up down or stayed the same, using this it either displays é, n or ê. I then set the font on these cells to Wingdings. so they become up arrow, down arrow and a square.
Then I use conditional formatting to colour it based on the adjacent cells value.
No need for a long, complex formula
=IF(A2>A1,"t",IF(A2<A1,"u","v")) - set the font to Marlett
I'm working to improve upon an excellent sheet I found of Debussy's Deuxième Arabesque on the freely available Mutopia Project.
In particular, I'm interested in fitting the music on fewer pages but I struggle to have the first page display five systems instead of four with the version I arrived at.
From the reproduction above, I would like the fith system (starting at bar 13) to be at the bottom of the first page. It seems there are a lot of wasted space on the first page and I'm rather confident it will fit perfectly.
I have a hard time playing figuring out how to achieve this. I have displayed the spacing annotations as advised by the documentation but I do not seem to be able to make sense of it.
If I were typesetting this today, I would try changing the staff size, like this:
#(set-global-staff-size 18)
You can add the following to your paper block
\paper {
min-systems-per-page = #5
system-system-spacing.padding = #2 %fit staves closer together
system-system-spacing.stretchability = #15 %how flexible the spacing is
}
This will of course force that all other pages have at least five systems. You can play around with the padding and stretchability values and see what works best. Also, you might want to make the staves smaller than the default 20pt. To do that, you can add the following at the beginning of the file:
#(set-global-staff-size 18)
I have looked through many tutorials and usually stack users trow links to the pdfkitten, but as I've tested it I have not satisfied with result. So the search does not work with multiply word and etc.
So what I am looking for I need to get all words from the pdf page and highlight it if the words cross some rectangle.
I used PDFKitten for the same.
What I did was while scanning the PDF - Identify the words separated
by spaces.
Save the RenderingState(Model in PDFKitten code)word is
encountered save that word in a model with it's current
RenderingState (Model in PDFKitten code) which will be initial state.
When the complete word is found(space separated) again save the
current RenderingState as final state.
The code for converting RenderingState to actual view's frame using
above initial state and final state, is present in PDFKitten. You can
refer to that code.
apply current media box transform to frame.
And finally don't forget
to convert resulted frame into user's co-ordinate system. Otherwise
you will observe the reverse effect.
I'm dynamically loading a file that will indicate when to show certain words at certain frames. However, I'm having trouble with the concept of timeline control from ActionScript (I'm building everything programmatically in Flash Builder). Let's say my tuples has frame and word:
5, "duck"
13, "cow"
22, "pig"
There is a sprite associated with each. What I would like to do is something like the following:
for (frame in timeline) { //should iterate from frame 0-22 (last frame in list)
if (frame in list) {
list[frame].alpha = 0;
}
}
I already know that my display of sprites works and whatnot, I'm just confused on how to play through the timeline in this kind of way, or if it's possible to dynamically do this.
EDIT: Related, can I control how fast the timeline plays?
EDIT: To give a more thorough explanation, I'm looking to visualize word appearances over time in a text. So "duck" may appear as the 5th word in a corpus, "cow" as the 13th word, etc. My list contains tuples of word positions (unique) and the word that appears at that position. I have a small selection of words that I'm interested in from the corpus, so not every position is represented. I would like to be able to have a SWF movies that essentially starts at the beginning of the corpus, go through my word list in order of appearance in the corpus, and then display the word (and have it fade out). So, if there's a word at position 5 and 10, then should appear in much more rapid succession than if there's a word at position 15, and the next one doesn't appear until 50. Basically, I would like to keep that temporal component.
I'm having a little trouble understanding exactly what you're asking about, but in general for controlling the timeline use the commands play() stop() gotoAndPlay() gotoAndStop()
Beyond that I'm gonna need you to explain more clearly what exactly you are trying to do.
ADDITION: From your edits it sounds like you simply want to trigger an animation when the user clicks a button or something. So make the animation in Flash and then use the commands I listed to play it.
ADDITION2: If however you definitely want to do this in code then that has nothing to do with the timeline; program the fading in and out using a tweening library like http://www.greensock.com/tweenlite/
