ID for this PPT API object, specified as a character vector or string scalar. A session-unique ID is generated as part of object creation. You can specify an ID to replace the generated ID.

Source PPT object from which the message originates.

Tag for this PPT API object, specified as a character vector or string scalar. A session-unique tag is generated as part of the creation of this object. The generated tag has the form CLASS:ID, where CLASS is the object class and ID is the value of the Id property of the object.

Specifying your own tag value can help you to identify where an issue occurred during presentation generation.

Examples

Create the presentation.

import mlreportgen.ppt.*;
pre = Presentation('myPresentation.pptx');

Create the listener and add it to the message dispatcher.

dispatcher = MessageDispatcher.getTheDispatcher;

dispatcher.Filter.ErrorMessagesPass = true;
dispatcher.Filter.ProgressMessagesPass = false;

l = addlistener(dispatcher,'Message', ...
@(src,evtdata) disp(evtdata.Message.formatAsText));

Create the message and dispatch it before opening the presentation.

msg = ErrorMessage('Invalid slide',pre);
dispatch(dispatcher, msg);

open(pre);

Add content and close the presentation.

titleText = Text('This is a Title');
titleText.Style = {Bold};
replace(pre,'Title',titleText);

close(pre);

Delete the listener to avoid duplicate reporting of message objects during a MATLAB® session.
