Create slide deck from list of individual slides selectable by a user from a GUI. #341

Closed skellman closed 6 years ago

skellman commented 6 years ago

One of my users would like the ability (if possible) to select N number of individual slide decks (via a checkbox list) to create a new deck from that. I can mock something up if that would help.

Hi @skellman

If you're asking to do something like clone or copy the style of an existing PPTX, then no, the library doesn't read/parse presentations.

If you're asking how to create multiple presentations, that's covered in the docs:

Saving Multiple Presentations

Hi, thanks for replying. I was talking about let's say 10 people working on 10 different slides. If they were loaded into a place I could add them to a checkbox list, another user could select each slide and create one large presentation from the selected slides. Make sense?

However you choose to utilize the library to generate a solution to this requirement sounds like an interesting project.
