restart.numbering

boolean value. If TRUE, next numbered list counter will be set to 1.

offx

optional, x position of the shape (top left position of the bounding box) in inches. See details.

offy

optional, y position of the shape (top left position of the bounding box) in inches. See details.

width

optional, width of the shape in inches. See details.

height

optional, height of the shape in inches. See details.

append

boolean default to FALSE. If TRUE, paragraphs will be appened in the current shape instead of beeing sent into a new shape. Paragraphs can only be appended on shape containing paragraphs (i.e. you can not add paragraphs after a FlexTable). Applies to only pptx objects.

Value

a document object

Details

a paragraph is a set of text that ends with an end of line. Read pot to see how to get different font formats. If an end of line is required, a new paragraph is required.

When document is a pptx object, two positioning methods are available.

If arguments offx, offy, width, height are missing, position and dimensions will be defined by the width and height of the next available shape of the slide. This dimensions can be defined in the layout of the PowerPoint template used to create the pptx object.

If arguments offx, offy, width, height are provided, they become position and dimensions of the new shape.

Also, when document is a pptx object, shading and border settings of argument par.properties will have no effect.

Argument par.properties is only used when value is a pot or a set_of_paragraphs.

If character values are used to fill slides, parameter append will be ignored.
