Hi, Yi

The question is being investigated, please wait some time.

Btw, You can look around a relavent task, to insert image to PowerPoint: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/oxmlsdk/thread/6239fc1e-e0e0-4329-9692-d658c250e9a5

Hi Yi,

Forrest Guo refers you to the following Forum thread where
there is a code snippet containing the C# code to draw a PowerPoint slide. You
may follow that as an example

OpenXML: add image in PowerPoint
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/oxmlsdk/thread/6239fc1e-e0e0-4329-9692-d658c250e9a5

Specifically in response to your question “Is there any way to
resize a PowerPoint chart in OpenXml SDK2?” once you have the code to build the
presentation, slides collection, and one or more slides, within the slide xml
part find the <p:xfrm.. element and manipulate the attributes of the  <a:off… and the <a:ext elements

Here are two sets of those elements and attributes from a single slide where the x,
y, cx, and cy attributes are different, the difference resulting from manually
resizing a bar chart in Slide1

Slide1.xml
 <p:xfrm>
     <a:off x:”1752600” y=”2362200”/>
     <a:ext cx=”6096000” cy=”2844800”/>
</p:xfrm>

Slide1.xml
 <p:xfrm>
     <a:off x:”1371600” y=”1600200”/>
     <a:ext cx=”6477000” cy=”3606800”/>
</p:xfrm>

Answer 4

Thanks Forrest.

But this is not what I need. I need the C# code to resize the chart size.

Yi

Answer 5

Above code is the markup xml of the document. You may also manually set chart size, then reflect code with OpenXml Productivity Tool.  This will generate C# code for the document. You can regenrate document with the code, of course you can change size before run code.

thanks,
