get_RawFrame()

IShape::get_RawFrame() method

Returns the raw shape frame’s properties. Read IShapeFrame.

virtual System::SharedPtr<IShapeFrame> Aspose::Slides::IShape::get_RawFrame()=0

Remarks

Code that attempts to assign undefined frame to IShape::set_Frame doesn’t make sense in general case (particulary in case when parent GroupShape is multiple nested into other GroupShape-s). For example:

SharedPtr<IShape> shape = ...;
shape->set_Frame(System::MakeObject<ShapeFrame>(std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), 
std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), 
std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), NullableBool::NotDefined, 
NullableBool::NotDefined, std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN()));

slide->get_Shapes()->AddAutoShape(ShapeType::RoundCornerRectangle,
std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), 
std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN());

Such code can lead to unclear situations. So restrictions had been added for using undefined values for IShape::set_Frame. Values of x, y, width, height, flipH, flipV and rotationAngle must be defined (not std::numeric_limits::quiet_NaN() or NullableBool::NotDefined). Example code above now throws ArgumentException exception. This applies to these use cases:

SharedPtr<IShape> shape = ...;
shape->set_Frame(...); // cannot be undefined

SharedPtr<IShapeCollection> shapes = ...;
// x, y, width, height parameters cannot be std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN():
{
    shapes->AddAudioFrameCD(...);
    shapes->AddAudioFrameEmbedded(...);
    shapes->AddAudioFrameLinked(...);
    shapes->AddAutoShape(...);
    shapes->AddChart(...);
    shapes->AddConnector(...);
    shapes->AddOleObjectFrame(...);
    shapes->AddPictureFrame(...);
    shapes->AddSmartArt(...);
    shapes->AddTable(...);
    shapes->AddVideoFrame(...);
    shapes->InsertAudioFrameEmbedded(...);
    shapes->InsertAudioFrameLinked(...);
    shapes->InsertAutoShape(...);
    shapes->InsertChart(...);
    shapes->InsertConnector(...);
    shapes->InsertOleObjectFrame(...);
    shapes->InsertPictureFrame(...);
    shapes->InsertTable(...);
    shapes->InsertVideoFrame(...);
}

But a frame for IShape::set_RawFrame method can be undefined. This make sense when shape is linked to placeholder. Then undefined shape frame values is overridden from the parent placeholder shape. If there is no parent placeholder shape for that shape then that shape uses default values when it evaluates effective frame based on its IShape::get_RawFrame. Default values are 0 and NullableBool::False for x, y, width, height, flipH, flipV and rotationAngle. For example:

SharedPtr<IShape> shape = ...; // shape is linked to placeholder
shape->set_RawFrame(System::MakeObject<ShapeFrame>(std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), 
std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), 100.0f, std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN(), 
NullableBool::NotDefined, NullableBool::NotDefined, 0.0f)); // now shape inherits x, y, height, flipH, flipV values form placeholder and overrides width=100 and rotationAngle=0.
