Dear Adam,

Thank you for contacting us.
There is no way to get shape by the id you referred. Actually, the id of p:cNvPr is allowed to be the same, to verify it, you could modify the id of several pictures to be the same in the xml, after packaging the revised xml to a new presentation, you will see the new file doesn't have any problem. For your situation, I advise you to get the shape by shape name. Please refer to the following code. If there is any question, please feel free to write back.

Code: Select all

Presentation PPT = new Presentation();
PPT.LoadFromFile("Input.pptx");
foreach (IShape s in PPT.Slides[0].Shapes)
{
    if (s is SlidePicture)
    {
        SlidePicture ps = s as SlidePicture;
        if (ps.Name == "Picture 4")
        {
            //...
        }
    }
}
PPT.SaveToFile("output.pptx", Spire.Presentation.FileFormat.Pptx2013);
