Usage

NOTE: this macro is currently only supported in PowerPoint. You can achieve a similar result to set a table cell's background image in PowerPoint using the [Shape.Format:] macro.

---

Parameter	Type	Presence	Purpose	Options	Default
pictureFilename	String	Conditional	The picture file name. When set, do not specify 'pictureVariable'.	N/A	N/A
pictureVariable	String	Conditional	The name of the variable that holds the picture to use for the table cell background image. Macros that produce graphs can store the data using the 'storeAsHidden' parameter. When set, do not specify 'pictureFilename'.	N/A	N/A
comment	String	Optional	Add a comment to make your document template more readable. The comment is discarded in the output document.	N/A	N/A
errorOnOverflow	Boolean	Optional	Should NCalc expression evaluation throw error on Overflow	true false	true
failureText	String	Optional	The text to display should the macro fail to execute. Note that a poorly-specified macro (e.g. omitting mandatory parameters) will still result in an error message.	N/A	N/A
if	String	Optional	The condition that must be true in order for the macro to be executed/evaluated. Must either evaluate to true or false, for example: "3+5=8" or "contains('abcd', 'z').	N/A	true
mode	MacroMode	Optional	The mode in which variables are stored. In the legacy mode (default for Schedules), the variable created is a string and formatted. In the normal mode (default for Report Studio), the output variable is stored as a strongly-typed object, e.g. an Int32 or a List etc., rather than a formatted string.	Legacy Normal	Legacy
obfuscation	ObfuscationType	Optional	Obfuscation type. Use obfuscation to write reports where sensitive data is hidden. When used, ReportMagic guarantees that the same input string will map to the same output string for the whole of the report (but the next time the report runs, it will most likely map to a different value). If you use obfuscation, the property in your macro will not show up and instead, you will see a fake item of the obfuscation type chosen.	None UkTown DeviceName Company IpAddress PrivateIpAddress	None
offsetBottom	Int32	Optional	The offset bottom percentage. Must be a value between -100,000 and 100,000 inclusive.	N/A	N/A
offsetLeft	Int32	Optional	The offset left percentage. Must be a value between -100,000 and 100,000 inclusive.	N/A	N/A
offsetRight	Int32	Optional	The offset right percentage. Must be a value between -100,000 and 100,000 inclusive.	N/A	N/A
offsetTop	Int32	Optional	The offset top percentage. Must be a value between -100,000 and 100,000 inclusive.	N/A	N/A
warning	String	Optional	If specified, adds a warning message for this macro. This is processed as an NCalc, and the warning message will ALWAYS be present and will be the value of the evaluated NCalc expression.	N/A	N/A

Examples (3)

Example 1:

This example sets the table cell's background image from a file in the same input folder.

[InsertTableCellImage: pictureFilename=Picture.png]

---

Example 2:

This example sets the table cell's background image from a file and also sets the offset percentages (just as can be done in the PowerPoint application):

[InsertTableCellImage: pictureFilename=Picture.png, offsetBottom=10, offsetLeft=20, offsetRight=20, offsetTop=10]

---

Example 3:

This example sets the table cell's background image from a previously-stored variable. To run this example, ensure you have put the [InsertTableCellImage:] macro into a table cell in the input document:

// Generate an image and store into a variable
[List.Graph: values=Value^80.71;Free^19.29;Fill^100, chartTypes=Doughnut, chartWidth=700, chartHeight=700, chartAreaWidthPercent=100, chartAreaHeightPercent=100, legendWidthPercent=0, xValueType=String, palette=Value^#ED7411;Free^LightGray;Fill^White, doughnutRadius=40, pieStartAngleDegrees=180, pageWidthPercent=20, pieLabelStyle=Disabled, writeToSpreadsheet=false, =>Image]

// Set the table cell background image
[InsertTableCellImage: pictureVariable=Image]
