Until now, the pptx writer only supported four slide layouts: “Title
Slide” (used for the automatically generated metadata slide), “Section
Header” (used for headings above the slide level), “Two Column” (used
when there’s a columns div containing at least two column divs), and
“Title and Content” (used for all other slides).
This commit adds support for three more layouts: Comparison, Content
with Caption, and Blank.
- Support “Comparison” slide layout
This layout is used when a slide contains at least two columns, at
least one of which contains some text followed by some non-text (e.g.
an image or table). The text in each column is inserted into the
“body” placeholder for that column, and the non-text is inserted into
the ObjType placeholder. Any extra content after the non-text is
overlaid on top of the preceding content, rather than dropping it
completely (as currently happens for the two-column layout).
+ Accept straightforward test changes
Adding the new layout means the “-deleted-layouts” tests have an
additional layout added to the master and master rels.
+ Add new tests for the comparison layout
+ Add new tests to pandoc.cabal
- Support “Content with Caption” slide layout
This layout is used when a slide’s body contains some text, followed by
non-text (e.g. and image or a table). Before now, in this case the image
or table would break onto a new slide: to get that output again, users
can add a horizontal rule before the image or table.
+ Accept straightforward tests
The “-deleted-layouts” tests all have an extra layout and relationship
in the master for the Content with Caption layout.
+ Accept remove-empty-slides test
Empty slides are still removed, but the Content with Caption layout is
now used.
+ Change slide-level-0/h1-h2-with-text description
This test now triggers the content with caption layout, giving a
different (but still correct) result.
+ Add new tests for the new layout
+ Add new tests to the cabal file
- Support “Blank” slide layout
This layout is used when a slide contains only blank content (e.g.
non-breaking spaces). No content is inserted into any placeholders in
the layout.
Fixes#5097.
+ Accept straightforward test changes
Blank layout now copied over from reference doc as well, when
layouts have been deleted.
+ Add some new tests
A slide should use the blank layout if:
- It contains only speaker notes
- It contains only an empty heading with a body of nbsps
- It contains only a heading containing only nbsps
- Change ContentType -> Placeholder
This type was starting to have a constructor for each placeholder on
each slide (e.g. `ComparisonUpperLeftContent`). I’ve changed it
instead to identify a placeholder by type and index, as I think that’s
clearer and less redundant.
