Basically, this is python-pptx, just with support for few new functions and few bugs fixes.
Remove method to directly remove a table or groupshape or a picture
e.g prs = presentation(file_path)
prs.slides[slide_index].shapes[shape_index].remove() will remove the element
replace_with_picture method to replace a shape within a slide with a picture
e.g.
prs.replace_with_picture(slide_index,shape_name,img_path)
shape_index method simply returns the index of a shape from its name
e.g
prs.shape_index(slide_index,shape_name) returns the index of shape that you can use to target a particular shape in the slide
update_text method updated the text within a text frame while retaining the original formatting of the text
e.g
textFrame = prs.slides[6].shapes[8].text_frame
textFrame.update_text(new_text) will update the text in that text frame while retaining the format of old text.
This method returns the updated text
Fixed issue with Python 3.10+ - "AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'abc'"
A typical use would be generating a customized PowerPoint presentation from database content, downloadable by clicking a link in a web application. Several developers have used it to automate production of presentation-ready engineering status reports based on information held in their work management system. It could also be used for making bulk updates to a library of presentations or simply to automate the production of a slide or two that would be tedious to get right by hand.
