I am trying to add a new SlidePart from a xml file to a existing presentation and I want that slide to be the first of the presentation, the Uri property from SlidePart is read only, so I can't control the order that way.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The order of the slide presentation will be stored in presentation.xml file as

<p:sldIdLst>

<p:sldId id="256" r:id="rId2"/>

<p:sldId id="257" r:id="rId3"/>

...

...

</p:sldIdLst>

 

Change the order of <p:sldId > element and see the difference.

Ok, so I can assume than after changing the order of the <p:sldId > element and saving the package, the uris always reflect the current order.

Thanks Sheela.

 

hi sheela,

I am programatically retriving slide ids.Am i right in assuming that by numerically sorting the rID's will give me the correct sequence of slides in the pptx?
for eg if i obtain
list=rID4,rID2,rID1,rID8,rID9
list.sort()
list=rID1,rID2,rID4,rID8,rID9

is this assumption right?

thanks
