    Properties

    DisplayAsIcon

    Gets or sets a value indicating whether the OLE object is displayed as an icon or content.

    Declaration
    bool DisplayAsIcon { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    System.Boolean

    True if the OLE object is displayed as an icon; otherwise, false.

    Remarks

    Initially Presentation library generated documents display the icon (given image) in place of the embedded OLE instance.

    By setting the DisplayAsIcon property to true, the icon is not updated after opening or editing the OLE instance by using Microsoft PowerPoint.

    However, setting the DisplayAsIcon property to false enables the Presentation document to update the icons dynamically with the content after opening or editing the OLE instance.

    Examples
    //Create new instance of PowerPoint presentation.
    IPresentation pptxDoc = Presentation.Create();
    //Add slide with blank layout to presentation
    ISlide slide = pptxDoc.Slides.Add(SlideLayoutType.Blank);
    //Get the excel file as stream
    Stream excelStream = File.Open("OleTemplate.xlsx", FileMode.Open);
    //Image to be displayed, This can be any image
    Stream imageStream = File.Open("OlePicture.png", FileMode.Open);
    //Add an OLE object to the slide
    IOleObject oleObject = slide.Shapes.AddOleObject(imageStream, "Excel.Sheet.12", excelStream);
    //Set size and position of the OLE object
    oleObject.Left = 10;
    oleObject.Top = 10;
    oleObject.Width = 400;
    oleObject.Height = 300;
    //Set DisplayAsIcon as true, to open the embedded document in separate (default) application.
    oleObject.DisplayAsIcon = true;
    //Save the presentation
    pptxDoc.Save("OleObjectSample.pptx");
    //Close the presentation
    pptxDoc.Close();
     'Create New instance of PowerPoint presentation.
     Dim pptxDoc As IPresentation = Presentation.Create
     'Add slide with blank layout to presentation
     Dim slide As ISlide = pptxDoc.Slides.Add(SlideLayoutType.Blank)

     'Add an OLE object to the slide
     Dim oleObject As IOleObject = slide.Shapes.AddOleObject(imageStream, "Excel.Sheet.12", excelStream)
     'Set size and position of the OLE object
     oleObject.Left = 10
     oleObject.Top = 10
     oleObject.Width = 400
     oleObject.Height = 300
     'Set DisplayAsIcon as true, to open the embedded document in separate (default) application.
     oleObject.DisplayAsIcon = True
     'Save the presentation
