Usage

When using PowerPoint slide sections (see: PowerPoint sections), moved slides will be placed into the correct section, or the one specified. Empty sections that remain are NOT deleted by default.For more information on using macros in PowerPoint, see: PowerPoint help.

Parameter	Type	Presence	Purpose	Options	Default
index	Int32	Mandatory	The index (0-based) of the slide's new position.	From 0 to 2147483647	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
deleteEmptySections	Boolean	Optional	Once the slide has been moved, whether to delete empty slide sections.	true false	false
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
indexType	Slide.IndexType	Optional	Whether to move the slide relative to the start or the end of the presentation (or slide section, when the 'sectionName' parameter is used). To move a slide to the start of the presentation: 'index=0, indexType=FromStart'. To move a slide to the end of the presentation: 'index=0, indexType=FromEnd'.	FromStart FromEnd	FromStart
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
sectionName	String	Optional	The section name to move the slide into. The 'index' and 'indexType' parameters then relate to the section. More details on PowerPoint sections can be found here.	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:

Moves the current slide to the start of the presentation:

[Slide.MoveTo: index=0]

---

Example 2:

Moves the current slide to the end of the presentation:

[Slide.MoveTo: index=0, indexType=FromEnd]

---

Example 3:

Moves the current slide to the start of the slide section called 'My Section' (which can be anywhere in the presentation):

[Slide.MoveTo: index=0, sectionName=My Section]
