The Table class, a dynamic feature within the OpenXMLOffice.Presentation library, provides developers with a robust toolset for effortlessly incorporating tables into PowerPoint presentations. This class offers extensive support for diverse table configurations, allowing users to create, modify, and enhance tables in a slide with ease. Developers can leverage the Table class to add new tables.

Basic Code Sample

C#

Slide slide = powerPoint.AddSlide(PresentationConstants.SlideLayoutType.BLANK);
slide.AddTable(CreateTableRowPayload(10), new TableSetting()
{
  name = "New Table",
  widthType = TableSetting.WidthOptionValues.PERCENTAGE,
  tableColumnWidth = new() { 80, 20 },
  x = (uint)G.ConverterUtils.PixelsToEmu(10),
  y = (uint)G.ConverterUtils.PixelsToEmu(10)
});
