Example:
Shows that when you create any node, it requires a document that will own the node.// Open a file from disk. Document doc = new Document(); // Creating a new node of any type requires a document passed into the constructor. Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc); // The new paragraph node does not yet have a parent. System.out.println("Paragraph has no parent node: " + (para.getParentNode() == null)); // But the paragraph node knows its document. System.out.println("Both nodes' documents are the same: " + (para.getDocument() == doc)); // The fact that a node always belongs to a document allows us to access and modify // properties that reference the document-wide data such as styles or lists. para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1"); // Now add the paragraph to the main text of the first section. doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(para); // The paragraph node is now a child of the Body node.

getZOrder/setZOrder | → inherited from ShapeBase |
public int getZOrder() / public void setZOrder(int value) |
Has effect only for top level shapes.
The default value is 0.
The number represents the stacking precedence. A shape with a higher number will be displayed as if it were overlapping (in "front" of) a shape with a lower number.
The order of overlapping shapes is independent for shapes in the header and in the main text of the document.
The display order of child shapes in a group shape is determined by their order inside the group shape.
Example:
Creates a textbox with some text and different formatting options in a new document.// Create a blank document. Document doc = new Document(); // Create a new shape of type TextBox Shape textBox = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.TEXT_BOX); // Set some settings of the textbox itself. // Set the wrap of the textbox to inline textBox.setWrapType(WrapType.NONE); // Set the horizontal and vertical alignment of the text inside the shape. textBox.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.CENTER); textBox.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.TOP); // Set the textbox height and width. textBox.setHeight(50); textBox.setWidth(200); // Set the textbox in front of other shapes with a lower ZOrder textBox.setZOrder(2); // Let's create a new paragraph for the textbox manually and align it in the center. Make sure we add the new nodes to the textbox as well. textBox.appendChild(new Paragraph(doc)); Paragraph para = textBox.getFirstParagraph(); para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER); // Add some text to the paragraph. Run run = new Run(doc); run.setText("Content in textbox"); para.appendChild(run); // Append the textbox to the first paragraph in the body. doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().appendChild(textBox); // Save the output doc.save(getMyDir() + "Shape.CreateTextBox Out.doc");
Method Detail |
---|
accept | |
public boolean accept(DocumentVisitor visitor) throws java.lang.Exception |
Enumerates over this node and all of its children. Each node calls a corresponding method on DocumentVisitor.
For more info see the Visitor design pattern.
visitor
- The visitor that will visit the nodes.appendChild | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node appendChild(Node newChild) |
If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.
If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use
newChild
- The node to add.Example:
Creates a simple document from scratch using the Aspose.Words object model.// Create an "empty" document. Note that like in Microsoft Word, // the empty document has one section, body and one paragraph in it. Document doc = new Document(); // This truly makes the document empty. No sections (not possible in Microsoft Word). doc.removeAllChildren(); // Create a new section node. // Note that the section has not yet been added to the document, // but we have to specify the parent document. Section section = new Section(doc); // Append the section to the document. doc.appendChild(section); // Lets set some properties for the section. section.getPageSetup().setSectionStart(SectionStart.NEW_PAGE); section.getPageSetup().setPaperSize(PaperSize.LETTER); // The section that we created is empty, lets populate it. The section needs at least the Body node. Body body = new Body(doc); section.appendChild(body); // The body needs to have at least one paragraph. // Note that the paragraph has not yet been added to the document, // but we have to specify the parent document. // The parent document is needed so the paragraph can correctly work // with styles and other document-wide information. Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc); body.appendChild(para); // We can set some formatting for the paragraph para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1"); para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER); // So far we have one empty paragraph in the document. // The document is valid and can be saved, but lets add some text before saving. // Create a new run of text and add it to our paragraph. Run run = new Run(doc); run.setText("Hello World!"); run.getFont().setColor(Color.RED); para.appendChild(run); // As a matter of interest, you can retrieve text of the whole document and // see that \x000c is automatically appended. \x000c is the end of section character.

deepClone | → inherited from Node |
public Node deepClone(boolean isCloneChildren) throws java.lang.Exception |
This method serves as a copy constructor for nodes. The cloned node has no parent, but belongs to the same document as the original node.
This method always performs a deep copy of the node. The isCloneChildren parameter specifies whether to perform copy all child nodes as well.
isCloneChildren
- True to recursively clone the subtree under the specified node;
false to clone only the node itself.Example:
Shows how to clone nodes with and without their child nodes.// Create a new empty document. Document doc = new Document(); // Add some text to the first paragraph Paragraph para = doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph(); para.appendChild(new Run(doc, "Some text")); // Clone the paragraph and the child nodes.

Example:
Exports the content of a node to string in HTML format using default options.Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Document.doc"); // Extract the last paragraph in the document to convert to HTML. Node node = doc.getLastSection().getBody().getLastParagraph(); // When ToString is called using the SaveFormat overload then conversion is executed using default save options. // When saving to HTML using default options the following settings are set: // ExportImagesAsBase64 = true // CssStyleSheetType = CssStyleSheetType.Inline // ExportFontResources = false String nodeAsHtml = node.toString(SaveFormat.HTML);
