Constructor Detail

• Shape

  public Shape(DocumentBase doc, int shapeType)

  Creates a new shape object.

  You should specify desired shape properties after you created a shape.

  Parameters:

  doc - The owner document.

  shapeType - A ShapeType value. The type of the shape to create.

  Example:

  Creates a textbox with some text and different formatting options in a new document.

  // Create a blank document.
  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Create a new shape of type TextBox
  Shape textBox = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.TEXT_BOX);
  
  // Set some settings of the textbox itself.
  // Set the wrap of the textbox to inline
  textBox.setWrapType(WrapType.NONE);
  // Set the horizontal and vertical alignment of the text inside the shape.
  textBox.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.CENTER);
  textBox.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.TOP);
  
  // Set the textbox height and width.
  textBox.setHeight(50);
  textBox.setWidth(200);
  
  // Set the textbox in front of other shapes with a lower ZOrder
  textBox.setZOrder(2);
  
  // Let's create a new paragraph for the textbox manually and align it in the center. Make sure we add the new nodes to the textbox as well.
  textBox.appendChild(new Paragraph(doc));
  Paragraph para = textBox.getFirstParagraph();
  para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER);
  
  // Add some text to the paragraph.
  Run run = new Run(doc);
  run.setText("Content in textbox");
  para.appendChild(run);
  
  // Append the textbox to the first paragraph in the body.
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(textBox);
  
  // Save the output
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.CreateTextBox.doc");

  Example:

  Shows how to create shape and add an image to a document without using a document builder.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Public constructor of "Shape" class creates shape with "ShapeMarkupLanguage.Vml" markup type
  // If you need to create "NonPrimitive" shapes, like SingleCornerSnipped, TopCornersSnipped, DiagonalCornersSnipped,
  // TopCornersOneRoundedOneSnipped, SingleCornerRounded, TopCornersRounded, DiagonalCornersRounded
  // please use DocumentBuilder.InsertShape methods
  Shape shape = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.IMAGE);
  shape.getImageData().setImage(getImageDir() + "Hammer.wmf");
  shape.setWidth(100);
  shape.setHeight(100);
  
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(shape);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Image.CreateImageDirectly.doc");

Property Getters/Setters Detail

• getAllowOverlap/setAllowOverlap

  public boolean getAllowOverlap() / public void setAllowOverlap(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets a value that specifies whether this shape can overlap other shapes.

  This property affects behavior of the shape in Microsoft Word. Aspose.Words ignores the value of this property.

  This property is applicable only to top level shapes.

  The default value is true.

  Example:

  Shows how get properties for floating tables

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Table.Distance.docx");
  
  Table table = (Table) doc.getChild(NodeType.TABLE, 0, true);
  
  if (table.getTextWrapping() == TextWrapping.AROUND) {
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getRelativeHorizontalAlignment(), HorizontalAlignment.DEFAULT);
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getRelativeVerticalAlignment(), VerticalAlignment.DEFAULT);
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getHorizontalAnchor(), RelativeHorizontalPosition.MARGIN);
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getVerticalAnchor(), RelativeVerticalPosition.PARAGRAPH);
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getAbsoluteHorizontalDistance(), 0.0);
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getAbsoluteVerticalDistance(), 4.8);
      Assert.assertEquals(table.getAllowOverlap(), true);
  }

• getAlternativeText/setAlternativeText

  public java.lang.String getAlternativeText() / public void setAlternativeText(java.lang.String value)
  

  Defines alternative text to be displayed instead of a graphic.

  The default value is an empty string.

  Example:

  Shows how to insert shapes.

  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  // Insert a cube and set its name
  Shape shape = builder.insertShape(ShapeType.CUBE, 150.0, 150.0);
  shape.setName("MyCube");
  
  // We can also set the alt text like this
  // This text will be found in Format AutoShape > Alt Text
  shape.setAlternativeText("Alt text for MyCube.");
  
  // Insert a text box
  shape = builder.insertShape(ShapeType.TEXT_BOX, 300.0, 50.0);
  shape.getFont().setName("Times New Roman");
  
  // Move the builder into the text box and write text
  builder.moveTo(shape.getLastParagraph());
  builder.write("Hello world!");
  
  // Move the builder out of the text box back into the main document
  builder.moveTo(shape.getParentParagraph());
  
  // Insert a shape with an image
  shape = builder.insertImage(getImageDir() + "Aspose.Words.gif");
  Assert.assertTrue(shape.canHaveImage());
  Assert.assertTrue(shape.hasImage());
  
  // Rotate the image
  shape.setRotation(45.0);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.InsertShapes.docx");

• getAnchorLocked/setAnchorLocked

  public boolean getAnchorLocked() / public void setAnchorLocked(boolean value)
  

  Specifies whether the shape's anchor is locked.

  The default value is false.

  Has effect only for top level shapes.

  This property affects behavior of the shape's anchor in Microsoft Word. When the anchor is not locked, moving the shape in Microsoft Word can move the shape's anchor too.

  Example:

  Shows how to create and work with a group of shapes.

  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  // Every GroupShape is top level
  GroupShape group = new GroupShape(doc);
  Assert.assertTrue(group.isGroup());
  Assert.assertTrue(group.isTopLevel());
  
  // And it is a floating shape too, so we can set its coordinates independently of the text
  Assert.assertEquals(group.getWrapType(), WrapType.NONE);
  
  // Make it a floating shape
  group.setWrapType(WrapType.NONE);
  
  // Top level shapes can have this property changed
  group.setAnchorLocked(true);
  
  // Set the XY coordinates of the shape group and the size of its containing block, as it appears on the page
  group.setBounds(new Rectangle2D.Float(100f, 50f, 200f, 100f));
  
  // Set the scale of the inner coordinates of the shape group
  // These values mean that the bottom right corner of the 200x100 outer block we set before
  // will be at x = 2000 and y = 1000, or 2000 units from the left and 1000 units from the top
  group.setCoordSize(new Dimension(2000, 1000));
  
  // The coordinate origin of a shape group is x = 0, y = 0 by default, which is the top left corner
  // If we insert a child shape and set its distance from the left to 2000 and the distance from the top to 1000,
  // its origin will be at the bottom right corner of the shape group
  // We can offset the coordinate origin by setting the CoordOrigin attribute
  // In this instance, we move the origin to the centre of the shape group
  group.setCoordOrigin(new Point(-1000, -500));
  
  // Populate the shape group with child shapes
  // First, insert a rectangle
  Shape subShape = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.RECTANGLE);
  subShape.setWidth(500.0);
  subShape.setHeight(700.0);
  
  // Place its top left corner at the parent group's coordinate origin, which is currently at its centre
  subShape.setLeft(0.0);
  subShape.setTop(0.0);
  
  // Add the rectangle to the group
  group.appendChild(subShape);
  
  // Insert a triangle
  subShape = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.TRIANGLE);
  subShape.setWidth(400.0);
  subShape.setHeight(400.0);
  
  // Place its origin at the bottom right corner of the group
  subShape.setLeft(1000.0);
  subShape.setTop(500.0);
  
  // The offset between this child shape and parent group can be seen here
  Assert.assertEquals(subShape.localToParent(new Point2D.Float(0f, 0f)), new Point2D.Float(1000f, 500f));
  
  // Add the triangle to the group
  group.appendChild(subShape);
  
  // Child shapes of a group shape are not top level
  Assert.assertFalse(subShape.isTopLevel());
  
  // Finally, insert the group into the document and save
  builder.insertNode(group);
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.InsertGroupShape.docx");

• getAspectRatioLocked/setAspectRatioLocked

  public boolean getAspectRatioLocked() / public void setAspectRatioLocked(boolean value)
  

  Specifies whether the shape's aspect ratio is locked.

  The default value depends on the ShapeType, for the ShapeType.Image it is true but for the other shape types it is false.

  Has effect for top level shapes only.

  Example:

  Shows how to set "AspectRatioLocked" for the shape object

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Shape.ActiveXObject.docx");
  
  // Get shape object from the document and set AspectRatioLocked(it is possible to get/set AspectRatioLocked for child shapes (mimic MS Word behavior), 
  // but AspectRatioLocked has effect only for top level shapes!)
  Shape shape = (Shape) doc.getChild(NodeType.SHAPE, 0, true);
  shape.setAspectRatioLocked(isLocked);

• getBehindText/setBehindText

  public boolean getBehindText() / public void setBehindText(boolean value)
  

  Specifies whether the shape is below or above text.

  Has effect only for top level shapes.

  The default value is false.

  Example:

  Shows how to insert a floating image in the middle of a page.

  // This creates a builder and also an empty document inside the builder.
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder();
  
  // By default, the image is inline.
  Shape shape = builder.insertImage(getImageDir() + "Aspose.Words.gif");
  
  // Make the image float, put it behind text and center on the page.
  shape.setWrapType(WrapType.NONE);
  shape.setBehindText(true);
  shape.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  shape.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.CENTER);
  shape.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  shape.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.CENTER);
  
  builder.getDocument().save(getArtifactsDir() + "Image.CreateFloatingPageCenter.doc");

  ZOrder

• getBottom

  public double getBottom()
  

  Gets the position of the bottom edge of the containing block of the shape.

  For a top-level shape, the value is in points and relative to the shape anchor.

  For shapes in a group, the value is in the coordinate space and units of the parent group.

  Example:

  Shows how to insert a floating image and specify its position and size.

  // This creates a builder and also an empty document inside the builder.
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder();
  
  // By default, the image is inline.
  Shape shape = builder.insertImage(getImageDir() + "Hammer.wmf");
  
  // Make the image float, put it behind text and center on the page.
  shape.setWrapType(WrapType.NONE);
  
  // Make position relative to the page.
  shape.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  shape.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  
  // Make the shape occupy a band 50 points high at the very top of the page.
  shape.setLeft(0);
  shape.setTop(0);
  shape.setWidth(builder.getCurrentSection().getPageSetup().getPageWidth());
  shape.setHeight(50);
  
  // The width will be scaled to the height and the dimensions of the real image
  final double delta = 0.05;
  Assert.assertEquals(shape.getWidth(), 50.85d, delta);
  
  // The Bottom and Right members contain the locations of the bottom and right edges of the image
  Assert.assertEquals(shape.getBottom(), shape.getTop() + shape.getHeight());
  Assert.assertEquals(shape.getRight(), shape.getLeft() + shape.getWidth());
  
  builder.getDocument().save(getArtifactsDir() + "Image.CreateFloatingPositionSize.doc");

• getBounds/setBounds

  public java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D.Float getBounds() / public void setBounds(java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D.Float value)
  

  Gets or sets the location and size of the containing block of the shape.

  Ignores aspect ratio lock upon setting.

  For a top-level shape, the value is in points and relative to the shape anchor.

  For shapes in a group, the value is in the coordinate space and units of the parent group.

  Example:

  Shows how to create line shapes and set specific location and size.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // The lines will cross the whole page.
  float pageWidth = (float) doc.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().getPageWidth();
  float pageHeight = (float) doc.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().getPageHeight();
  
  // This line goes from top left to bottom right by default.
  Shape lineA = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.LINE);
  lineA.setBounds(new Rectangle2D.Float(0, 0, pageWidth, pageHeight));
  lineA.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  lineA.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(lineA);
  
  Assert.assertEquals(lineA.getBoundsInPoints(), new Rectangle2D.Float(0f, 0f, pageWidth, pageHeight));
  
  // This line goes from bottom left to top right because we flipped it.
  Shape lineB = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.LINE);
  lineB.setBounds(new Rectangle2D.Float(0, 0, pageWidth, pageHeight));
  lineB.setFlipOrientation(FlipOrientation.HORIZONTAL);
  lineB.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  lineB.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  
  Assert.assertEquals(new Rectangle2D.Float(0f, 0f, pageWidth, pageHeight), lineB.getBoundsInPoints());
  
  // Add lines to the document.
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(lineB);
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(lineA);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.LineFlipOrientation.doc");

• getBoundsInPoints

  public java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D.Float getBoundsInPoints()
  

  Gets the location and size of the containing block of the shape in points, relative to the anchor of the topmost shape.

  Example:

  Shows how to create line shapes and set specific location and size.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // The lines will cross the whole page.
  float pageWidth = (float) doc.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().getPageWidth();
  float pageHeight = (float) doc.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().getPageHeight();
  
  // This line goes from top left to bottom right by default.
  Shape lineA = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.LINE);
  lineA.setBounds(new Rectangle2D.Float(0, 0, pageWidth, pageHeight));
  lineA.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  lineA.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(lineA);
  
  Assert.assertEquals(lineA.getBoundsInPoints(), new Rectangle2D.Float(0f, 0f, pageWidth, pageHeight));
  
  // This line goes from bottom left to top right because we flipped it.
  Shape lineB = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.LINE);
  lineB.setBounds(new Rectangle2D.Float(0, 0, pageWidth, pageHeight));
  lineB.setFlipOrientation(FlipOrientation.HORIZONTAL);
  lineB.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  lineB.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  
  Assert.assertEquals(new Rectangle2D.Float(0f, 0f, pageWidth, pageHeight), lineB.getBoundsInPoints());
  
  // Add lines to the document.
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(lineB);
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(lineA);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.LineFlipOrientation.doc");

• getBoundsWithEffects

  public java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D.Float getBoundsWithEffects()
  

  Gets final extent that this shape object has after applying drawing effects. Value is measured in points.

  Example:

  Shows how to check how a shape's bounds are affected by shape effects.

  // Open a document that contains two shapes and get its shape collection
  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Shape.AdjustWithEffects.docx");
  NodeCollection shapes = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.SHAPE, true);
  Assert.assertEquals(shapes.getCount(), 2);
  
  Shape firstShape = (Shape) shapes.get(0);
  Shape secondShape = (Shape) shapes.get(1);
  
  // The two shapes are identical in terms of dimensions and shape type
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getWidth(), firstShape.getWidth());
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getHeight(), firstShape.getHeight());
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getShapeType(), firstShape.getShapeType());
  
  // However, the first shape has no effects, while the second one has a shadow and thick outline
  Assert.assertEquals(firstShape.getStrokeWeight(), 0.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getStrokeWeight(), 20.0);
  Assert.assertFalse(firstShape.getShadowEnabled());
  Assert.assertTrue(secondShape.getShadowEnabled());
  
  // These effects make the size of the second shape's silhouette bigger than that of the first
  // Even though the size of the rectangle that shows up when we click on these shapes in Microsoft Word is the same,
  // the practical outer bounds of the second shape are affected by the shadow and outline and are bigger
  // We can use the AdjustWithEffects method to see exactly how much bigger they are
  
  // Create a RectangleF object, which represents a rectangle, which we could potentially use as the coordinates and bounds for a shape
  Rectangle2D.Float rectangleF = new Rectangle2D.Float(200f, 200f, 1000f, 1000f);
  
  // Run this method to get the size of the rectangle adjusted for all of our shape's effects
  Rectangle2D.Float rectangleFOut = firstShape.adjustWithEffects(rectangleF);
  
  // Since the shape has no border-changing effects, its boundary dimensions are unaffected
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getX(), 200.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getY(), 200.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getWidth(), 1000.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getHeight(), 1000.0);
  
  // The final extent of the first shape, in points
  Assert.assertEquals(firstShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getX(), -0.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(firstShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getY(), -0.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(firstShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getWidth(), 147.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(firstShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getHeight(), 147.0);
  
  // Do the same with the second shape
  rectangleF = new Rectangle2D.Float(200f, 200f, 1000f, 1000f);
  rectangleFOut = secondShape.adjustWithEffects(rectangleF);
  
  // The shape's x/y coordinates (top left corner location) have been pushed back by the thick outline
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getX(), 171.5);
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getY(), 167.0);
  
  // The width and height were also affected by the outline and shadow
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getWidth(), 1045.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(rectangleFOut.getHeight(), 1132.0);
  
  // These values are also affected by effects
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getX(), -28.5);
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getY(), -33.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getWidth(), 192.0);
  Assert.assertEquals(secondShape.getBoundsWithEffects().getHeight(), 279.0);

• canHaveImage

  public boolean canHaveImage()
  

  Returns true if the shape type allows the shape to have an image.

  Although Microsoft Word has a special shape type for images, it appears that in Microsoft Word documents any shape except a group shape can have an image, therefore this property returns true for all shapes except GroupShape.

  Example:

  Shows how to insert shapes.

  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  // Insert a cube and set its name
  Shape shape = builder.insertShape(ShapeType.CUBE, 150.0, 150.0);
  shape.setName("MyCube");
  
  // We can also set the alt text like this
  // This text will be found in Format AutoShape > Alt Text
  shape.setAlternativeText("Alt text for MyCube.");
  
  // Insert a text box
  shape = builder.insertShape(ShapeType.TEXT_BOX, 300.0, 50.0);
  shape.getFont().setName("Times New Roman");
  
  // Move the builder into the text box and write text
  builder.moveTo(shape.getLastParagraph());
  builder.write("Hello world!");
  
  // Move the builder out of the text box back into the main document
  builder.moveTo(shape.getParentParagraph());
  
  // Insert a shape with an image
  shape = builder.insertImage(getImageDir() + "Aspose.Words.gif");
  Assert.assertTrue(shape.canHaveImage());
  Assert.assertTrue(shape.hasImage());
  
  // Rotate the image
  shape.setRotation(45.0);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.InsertShapes.docx");

• getChart

  public Chart getChart()
  

  Provides access to the chart properties if this shape has a Chart.

  This property will return the Chart object only if HasChart property is true for this Shape, and will throw an exception otherwise.

  Example:

  Shows how to iterate over all the shapes in a document.

  public void visitShapes() throws Exception {
      // Open a document that contains shapes
      Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Shape.Revisions.docx");

• getChildNodes

  public NodeCollection getChildNodes()
  

  Gets all immediate child nodes of this node.

  Note, ChildNodes is equivalent to calling GetChildNodes(NodeType.Any, false) and creates and returns a new collection every time it is accessed.

  If there are no child nodes, this property returns an empty collection.

  Example:

  Shows how to enumerate immediate children of a CompositeNode using the enumerator provided by the ChildNodes collection.

  NodeCollection children = paragraph.getChildNodes();
  for (Node child : (Iterable<Node>) children) {
      // Paragraph may contain children of various types such as runs, shapes and so on.
      if (child.getNodeType() == NodeType.RUN) {
          // Say we found the node that we want, do something useful.
          Run run = (Run) child;
          System.out.println(run.getText());
      }

• getFirstChild

  public Node getFirstChild()
  

  Gets the first child of the node.

  If there is no first child node, a null is returned.

  Example:

  Shows how to enumerate immediate child nodes of a composite node using NextSibling. In this example we enumerate all paragraphs of a section body.

  // Get the section that we want to work on.
  Section section = doc.getSections().get(0);
  Body body = section.getBody();
  
  // Loop starting from the first child until we reach null.
  for (Node node = body.getFirstChild(); node != null; node = node.getNextSibling()) {
      // Output the types of the nodes that we come across.
      System.out.println(Node.nodeTypeToString(node.getNodeType()));
  }

  // Set the horizontal and vertical alignment of the text inside the shape.
  textBox.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.CENTER);
  textBox.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.TOP);
  
  // Set the textbox height and width.
  textBox.setHeight(50);
  textBox.setWidth(200);
  
  // Set the textbox in front of other shapes with a lower ZOrder
  textBox.setZOrder(2);
  
  // Let's create a new paragraph for the textbox manually and align it in the center. Make sure we add the new nodes to the textbox as well.

  // Make position relative to the page.
  shape.setRelativeHorizontalPosition(RelativeHorizontalPosition.PAGE);
  shape.setRelativeVerticalPosition(RelativeVerticalPosition.PAGE);
  
  // Make the shape occupy a band 50 points high at the very top of the page.
  shape.setLeft(0);
  shape.setTop(0);
  shape.setWidth(builder.getCurrentSection().getPageSetup().getPageWidth());
  shape.setHeight(50);
  
  // The width will be scaled to the height and the dimensions of the real image
  final double delta = 0.05;

  // Open a file from disk.
  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Creating a new node of any type requires a document passed into the constructor.
  Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc);
  
  // The new paragraph node does not yet have a parent.
  System.out.println("Paragraph has no parent node: " + (para.getParentNode() == null));
  
  // But the paragraph node knows its document.
  System.out.println("Both nodes' documents are the same: " + (para.getDocument() == doc));
  
  // The fact that a node always belongs to a document allows us to access and modify
  // properties that reference the document-wide data such as styles or lists.
  para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1");
  
  // Now add the paragraph to the main text of the first section.
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(para);

  // Insert a text box
  shape = builder.insertShape(ShapeType.TEXT_BOX, 300.0, 50.0);
  shape.getFont().setName("Times New Roman");
  
  // Move the builder into the text box and write text
  builder.moveTo(shape.getLastParagraph());

  Node lastSection = doc.getLastChild();
  
  // Each node knows its next and previous sibling nodes.
  // Previous sibling of a section is a section before the specified section.
  // If the node is the first child, PreviousSibling will return null.

  // This gets a live collection of all shape nodes in the document.
  NodeCollection shapeCollection = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.SHAPE, true);
  
  // Since we will be adding/removing nodes, it is better to copy all collection
  // into a fixed size array, otherwise iterator will be invalidated.
  Node[] shapes = shapeCollection.toArray();
  
  for (Node node : shapes) {

  // Save the output
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.CreateTextBox.doc");

• getZOrder/setZOrder

  public int getZOrder() / public void setZOrder(int value)
  

  Determines the display order of overlapping shapes.

  Has effect only for top level shapes.

  The default value is 0.

  The number represents the stacking precedence. A shape with a higher number will be displayed as if it were overlapping (in "front" of) a shape with a lower number.

  The order of overlapping shapes is independent for shapes in the header and in the main text of the document.

  The display order of child shapes in a group shape is determined by their order inside the group shape.

  Example:

  Creates a textbox with some text and different formatting options in a new document.

  // Create a blank document.
  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Create a new shape of type TextBox
  Shape textBox = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.TEXT_BOX);
  
  // Set some settings of the textbox itself.
  // Set the wrap of the textbox to inline
  textBox.setWrapType(WrapType.NONE);
  // Set the horizontal and vertical alignment of the text inside the shape.
  textBox.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.CENTER);
  textBox.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.TOP);
  
  // Set the textbox height and width.
  textBox.setHeight(50);
  textBox.setWidth(200);
  
  // Set the textbox in front of other shapes with a lower ZOrder
  textBox.setZOrder(2);
  
  // Let's create a new paragraph for the textbox manually and align it in the center. Make sure we add the new nodes to the textbox as well.
  textBox.appendChild(new Paragraph(doc));
  Paragraph para = textBox.getFirstParagraph();
  para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER);
  
  // Add some text to the paragraph.
  Run run = new Run(doc);
  run.setText("Content in textbox");
  para.appendChild(run);
  
  // Append the textbox to the first paragraph in the body.
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(textBox);
  
  // Save the output
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Shape.CreateTextBox.doc");

Method Detail

• accept

  public boolean accept(DocumentVisitor visitor)
                throws java.lang.Exception

  Accepts a visitor.

  Enumerates over this node and all of its children. Each node calls a corresponding method on DocumentVisitor.

  For more info see the Visitor design pattern.

  Calls DocumentVisitor.visitShapeStart(com.aspose.words.Shape), then calls accept(com.aspose.words.DocumentVisitor) for all child nodes of the shape and calls DocumentVisitor.visitShapeEnd(com.aspose.words.Shape) at the end.

  Parameters:

  visitor - The visitor that will visit the nodes.

  Returns:

  True if all nodes were visited; false if DocumentVisitor stopped the operation before visiting all nodes.

  Example:

  Shows how to iterate over all the shapes in a document.

  public void visitShapes() throws Exception {
      // Open a document that contains shapes

• appendChild

  public Node appendChild(Node newChild)

  Adds the specified node to the end of the list of child nodes for this node.

  If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.

  If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use DocumentBase.importNode(com.aspose.words.Node,boolean,int) to import the node to the current document. The imported node can then be inserted into the current document.

  Parameters:

  newChild - The node to add.

  Returns:

  The node added.

  Example:

  Creates a simple document from scratch using the Aspose.Words object model.

  // Create an "empty" document. Note that like in Microsoft Word,
  // the empty document has one section, body and one paragraph in it.
  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // This truly makes the document empty. No sections (not possible in Microsoft Word).
  doc.removeAllChildren();
  
  // Create a new section node.
  // Note that the section has not yet been added to the document,
  // but we have to specify the parent document.
  Section section = new Section(doc);
  
  // Append the section to the document.
  doc.appendChild(section);
  
  // Lets set some properties for the section.
  section.getPageSetup().setSectionStart(SectionStart.NEW_PAGE);
  section.getPageSetup().setPaperSize(PaperSize.LETTER);
  
  // The section that we created is empty, lets populate it. The section needs at least the Body node.
  Body body = new Body(doc);
  section.appendChild(body);
  
  // The body needs to have at least one paragraph.
  // Note that the paragraph has not yet been added to the document,
  // but we have to specify the parent document.
  // The parent document is needed so the paragraph can correctly work
  // with styles and other document-wide information.
  Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc);
  body.appendChild(para);
  
  // We can set some formatting for the paragraph
  para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1");
  para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER);
  
  // So far we have one empty paragraph in the document.
  // The document is valid and can be saved, but lets add some text before saving.
  // Create a new run of text and add it to our paragraph.
  Run run = new Run(doc);
  run.setText("Hello World!");
  run.getFont().setColor(Color.RED);
  para.appendChild(run);
  
  // As a matter of interest, you can retrieve text of the whole document and
  // see that \x000c is automatically appended. \x000c is the end of section character.
  System.out.println(doc.getText());
  
  // Save the document.
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Section.CreateFromScratch.doc");

• deepClone

  public Node deepClone(boolean isCloneChildren)

  Example:

  Shows how to clone composite nodes with and without their child nodes.

  // Create a new empty document.
  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Add some text to the first paragraph
  Paragraph para = doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph();
  para.appendChild(new Run(doc, "Some text"));
  
  // Clone the paragraph and the child nodes.
  Node cloneWithChildren = para.deepClone(true);
  // Only clone the paragraph and no child nodes.
  Node cloneWithoutChildren = para.deepClone(false);

• getAncestor

  public CompositeNode getAncestor(java.lang.Class ancestorType)

  Gets the first ancestor of the specified object type.

  The ancestor type matches if it is equal to ancestorType or derived from ancestorType.

  Parameters:

  ancestorType - The object type of the ancestor to retrieve.

  Returns:

  The ancestor of the specified type or null if no ancestor of this type was found.

• getChild

  public Node getChild(int nodeType, int index, boolean isDeep)

  Returns an Nth child node that matches the specified type.

  If index is out of range, a null is returned.

  Note that markup nodes (NodeType.STRUCTURED_DOCUMENT_TAG and NodeType.SMART_TAG) are traversed even when isDeep = false and GetChild is invoked for non-markup node type. For example if the first run in a para is wrapped in a StructuredDocumentTag, it will still be returned by GetChild(NodeType.Run, 0, false).

  Parameters:

  nodeType - A NodeType value. Specifies the type of the child node.

  index - Zero based index of the child node to select. Negative indexes are also allowed and indicate access from the end, that is -1 means the last node.

  isDeep - True to select from all child nodes recursively. False to select only among immediate children. See remarks for more info.

  Returns:

  The child node that matches the criteria or null if no matching node is found.

  Example:

  Shows how to test if a node is inside a field by using an XPath expression.

  // Let's pick a document we know has some fields in.
  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "MailMerge.MergeImage.doc");
  
  // Let's say we want to check if the Run below is inside a field.
  Run run = (Run) doc.getChild(NodeType.RUN, 5, true);
  
  // Evaluate the XPath expression. The resulting NodeList will contain all nodes found inside a field a field (between FieldStart
  // and FieldEnd exclusive). There can however be FieldStart and FieldEnd nodes in the list if there are nested fields
  // in the path. Currently does not find rare fields in which the FieldCode or FieldResult spans across multiple paragraphs.
  NodeList resultList = doc.selectNodes("//FieldStart/following-sibling::node()[following-sibling::FieldEnd]");
  
  // Check if the specified run is one of the nodes that are inside the field.
  for (Node node : (Iterable<Node>) resultList) {
      if (node == run) {
          System.out.println("The node is found inside a field");
          break;
      }
  }

  Example:

  Shows how to extract a specific child node from a CompositeNode by using the GetChild method and passing the NodeType and index.

  Paragraph paragraph = (Paragraph) doc.getChild(NodeType.PARAGRAPH, 0, true);

• getChildNodes

  public NodeCollection getChildNodes(int nodeType, boolean isDeep)

  Returns a live collection of child nodes that match the specified type.

  The collection of nodes returned by this method is always live.

  A live collection is always in sync with the document. For example, if you selected all sections in a document and enumerate through the collection deleting the sections, the section is removed from the collection immediately when it is removed from the document.

  Parameters:

  nodeType - A NodeType value. Specifies the type of nodes to select.

  isDeep - True to select from all child nodes recursively. False to select only among immediate children.

  Returns:

  A live collection of child nodes of the specified type.

  Example:

  Shows how to extract images from a document and save them as files.

  public void extractImagesToFiles() throws Exception {
      Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Image.SampleImages.doc");
  
      NodeCollection shapes = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.SHAPE, true);
      int imageIndex = 0;
      for (Shape shape : (Iterable<Shape>) shapes) {
          if (shape.hasImage()) {
              String imageFileName = String.format("Image.ExportImages.{0}{1}", imageIndex,
                      FileFormatUtil.imageTypeToExtension(shape.getImageData().getImageType()));
              shape.getImageData().save(getArtifactsDir() + imageFileName);
              imageIndex++;
          }
      }
  }

  Example:

  Demonstrates how to remove a specified TOC from a document.

  public void removeTOCFromDocument() throws Exception {
      // Open a document which contains a TOC.
      Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Document.TableOfContents.doc");
  
      // Remove the first TOC from the document.
      Field tocField = doc.getRange().getFields().get(0);
      tocField.remove();
  
      // Save the output.
      doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.TableOfContentsRemoveTOC.doc");
  }

• getDirectShapeAttr

  @Deprecated
  public java.lang.Object getDirectShapeAttr(int key)

  Deprecated. Reserved for internal use.

• getShapeRenderer

  public ShapeRenderer getShapeRenderer()
                                throws java.lang.Exception

  Creates and returns an object that can be used to render this shape into an image.

  This method just invokes the ShapeRenderer constructor and passes this object as a parameter.

  Returns:

  The renderer object for this shape.

  Example:

  Shows how to export shapes to files in the local file system using a shape renderer.

  // Open a document that contains shapes and get its shape collection
  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Shape.VarietyOfShapes.docx");
  NodeCollection shapes = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.SHAPE, true);
  Assert.assertEquals(7, shapes.getCount());
  
  // There are 7 shapes in the document, with one group shape with 2 child shapes
  // The child shapes will be rendered but their parent group shape will be skipped, so we will see 6 output files
  for (Shape shape : (Iterable<Shape>) shapes) {
      ShapeRenderer renderer = shape.getShapeRenderer();
      ImageSaveOptions options = new ImageSaveOptions(SaveFormat.PNG);
      renderer.save(getArtifactsDir() + MessageFormat.format("Shape.ShapeRenderer {0}.png", shape.getName()), options);
  }

• getSizeInPoints

  public java.awt.geom.Point2D.Float getSizeInPoints()

  Gets the size of the shape in points.

  Point2D.Float is used as return type because we need in float dimension values here. One should to assume that Point2D's x == width and y == height.

• getText

  public java.lang.String getText()

  Gets the text of this node and of all its children.

  The returned string includes all control and special characters as described in ControlChar.

  Example:

  Shows the difference between calling the GetText and ToString methods on a node.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Enter a dummy field into the document.
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  builder.insertField("MERGEFIELD Field");
  
  // GetText will retrieve all field codes and special characters
  System.out.println("GetText() Result: " + doc.getText());
  
  // ToString will export the node to the specified format. When converted to text it will not retrieve fields code
  // or special characters, but will still contain some natural formatting characters such as paragraph markers etc.
  // This is the same as "viewing" the document as if it was opened in a text editor.
  System.out.println("ToString() Result: " + doc.toString(SaveFormat.TEXT));

  Example:

  Finds and outputs all paragraphs in a document that are bulleted or numbered.

  NodeCollection paras = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.PARAGRAPH, true);
  for (Paragraph para : (Iterable<Paragraph>) paras) {
      if (para.getListFormat().isListItem()) {
          System.out.println(java.text.MessageFormat.format("*** A paragraph belongs to list {0}", para.getListFormat().getList().getListId()));
          System.out.println(para.getText());
      }
  }

• indexOf

  public int indexOf(Node child)

  Returns the index of the specified child node in the child node array.

  Returns -1 if the node is not found in the child nodes.

  Example:

  Shows how to get the index of a given child node from its parent.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Rendering.doc");
  
  // Get the body of the first section in the document.
  Body body = doc.getFirstSection().getBody();
  // Retrieve the index of the last paragraph in the body.

• insertAfter

  public Node insertAfter(Node newChild, Node refChild)

  Inserts the specified node immediately after the specified reference node.

  If refChild is null, inserts newChild at the beginning of the list of child nodes.

  If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.

  If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use DocumentBase.importNode(com.aspose.words.Node,boolean,int) to import the node to the current document. The imported node can then be inserted into the current document.

  Parameters:

  newChild - The Node to insert.

  refChild - The Node that is the reference node. The newNode is placed after the refNode.

  Returns:

  The inserted node.

  Example:

  Paragraph paragraph = doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph();
  Run paragraphText = new Run(doc, "Initial text. ");
  paragraph.appendChild(paragraphText);
  
  // We will place these 3 children into the main text of our paragraph
  Run run1 = new Run(doc, "Run 1. ");
  Run run2 = new Run(doc, "Run 2. ");
  Run run3 = new Run(doc, "Run 3. ");
  
  // We initialized them but not in our paragraph yet
  Assert.assertEquals(paragraph.getText(), "Initial text. " + (char) 12);
  
  // Insert run2 before initial paragraph text. This will be at the start of the paragraph
  paragraph.insertBefore(run2, paragraphText);
  
  // Insert run3 after initial paragraph text. This will be at the end of the paragraph
  paragraph.insertAfter(run3, paragraphText);
  
  // Insert run1 before every other child node. run2 was the start of the paragraph, now it will be run1

  // Get the section that we want to work on.
  Section section = doc.getSections().get(0);
  Body body = section.getBody();
  
  // Select the first child node in the body.
  Node curNode = body.getFirstChild();
  
  while (curNode != null) {
      // Save the pointer to the next sibling node because if the current
      // node is removed from the parent in the next step, we will have
      // no way of finding the next node to continue the loop.
      Node nextNode = curNode.getNextSibling();
  
      // A section body can contain Paragraph and Table nodes.
      // If the node is a Table, remove it from the parent.
      if (curNode.getNodeType() == NodeType.TABLE) {
          curNode.remove();
      }
  
      // Continue going through child nodes until null (no more siblings) is reached.
      curNode = nextNode;
  }

  Example:

  Shows how to delete all images from a document.

  // Here we get all shapes from the document node, but you can do this for any smaller
  // node too, for example delete shapes from a single section or a paragraph.
  NodeCollection shapes = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.SHAPE, true);
  
  // We cannot delete shape nodes while we enumerate through the collection.
  // One solution is to add nodes that we want to delete to a temporary array and delete afterwards.
  ArrayList shapesToDelete = new ArrayList();
  for (Shape shape : (Iterable<Shape>) shapes) {
      // Several shape types can have an image including image shapes and OLE objects.
      if (shape.hasImage()) {
          shapesToDelete.add(shape);
      }
  }
  
  // Now we can delete shapes.
  for (Shape shape : (Iterable<Shape>) shapesToDelete) {
      shape.remove();
  }

• removeAllChildren

  public void removeAllChildren()

  Removes all the child nodes of the current node.

  Example:

  Creates a simple document from scratch using the Aspose.Words object model.

  // Create an "empty" document. Note that like in Microsoft Word,
  // the empty document has one section, body and one paragraph in it.
  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // This truly makes the document empty. No sections (not possible in Microsoft Word).
  doc.removeAllChildren();
  
  // Create a new section node.
  // Note that the section has not yet been added to the document,
  // but we have to specify the parent document.
  Section section = new Section(doc);
  
  // Append the section to the document.
  doc.appendChild(section);
  
  // Lets set some properties for the section.
  section.getPageSetup().setSectionStart(SectionStart.NEW_PAGE);
  section.getPageSetup().setPaperSize(PaperSize.LETTER);
  
  // The section that we created is empty, lets populate it. The section needs at least the Body node.
  Body body = new Body(doc);
  section.appendChild(body);
  
  // The body needs to have at least one paragraph.
  // Note that the paragraph has not yet been added to the document,
  // but we have to specify the parent document.
  // The parent document is needed so the paragraph can correctly work
  // with styles and other document-wide information.
  Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc);
  body.appendChild(para);
  
  // We can set some formatting for the paragraph
  para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1");
  para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER);
  
  // So far we have one empty paragraph in the document.
  // The document is valid and can be saved, but lets add some text before saving.
  // Create a new run of text and add it to our paragraph.
  Run run = new Run(doc);
  run.setText("Hello World!");
  run.getFont().setColor(Color.RED);
  para.appendChild(run);
  
  // As a matter of interest, you can retrieve text of the whole document and
  // see that \x000c is automatically appended. \x000c is the end of section character.
  System.out.println(doc.getText());
  
  // Save the document.
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Section.CreateFromScratch.doc");

• removeChild

  public Node removeChild(Node oldChild)

  Removes the specified child node.

  The parent of oldChild is set to null after the node is removed.

  Parameters:

  oldChild - The node to remove.

  Returns:

  The removed node.

  Example:

  Demonstrates use of methods of Node and CompositeNode to remove a section before the last section in the document.

  // Document is a CompositeNode and LastChild returns the last child node in the Document node.
  // Since the Document can contain only Section nodes, the last child is the last section.
  Node lastSection = doc.getLastChild();
  
  // Each node knows its next and previous sibling nodes.
  // Previous sibling of a section is a section before the specified section.
  // If the node is the first child, PreviousSibling will return null.
  Node sectionBeforeLast = lastSection.getPreviousSibling();
  
  if (sectionBeforeLast != null) {
      doc.removeChild(sectionBeforeLast);
  }

  // ToString will export the node to the specified format. When converted to text it will not retrieve fields code
  // or special characters, but will still contain some natural formatting characters such as paragraph markers etc.
  // This is the same as "viewing" the document as if it was opened in a text editor.
  System.out.println("ToString() Result: " + doc.toString(SaveFormat.TEXT));

  Example:

  Exports the content of a node to string in HTML format using default options.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Document.doc");
  
  // Extract the last paragraph in the document to convert to HTML.
  Node node = doc.getLastSection().getBody().getLastParagraph();
  
  // When ToString is called using the SaveFormat overload then conversion is executed using default save options.
  // When saving to HTML using default options the following settings are set:
  //   ExportImagesAsBase64 = true
  //   CssStyleSheetType = CssStyleSheetType.Inline
  //   ExportFontResources = false
  String nodeAsHtml = node.toString(SaveFormat.HTML);
