How do i insert a watermark into a Word Document programatically (
Hi,
I'm trying to insert a watermark witha a Word Add-in. I'm using a variant of Paul Stubbs code that i found from a Google. The method I'm using is as follows: private void addWatermark(Word.Document doc, string WatermarkText) { doc.Application.ActiveWindow.View.Type = Word.WdViewType.wdPrintView; doc.Sections[1].Range.Select(); doc.ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = Word.WdSeekView.wdSeekCurrentPageHeader; Word.Selection Selection = doc.Application.Selection; Word.Shape wmShape; //Create the watermark shape Object missing = Type.Missing; wmShape = Selection.HeaderFooter.Shapes.AddTextEffect( Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoPresetTextEffect.msoTextE ffect1, WatermarkText, "Times New Roman", 1, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, 0, 0, ref missing); //Set all of the attributes of the watermark wmShape.Select(ref missing); wmShape.Name = "PowerPlusWaterMarkObject1"; wmShape.TextEffect.NormalizedHeight = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse; wmShape.Line.Visible = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse; wmShape.Fill.Visible = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoTrue; wmShape.Fill.Solid(); wmShape.Fill.ForeColor.RGB = (int)Word.WdColor.wdColorGray25; wmShape.Fill.Transparency = 0.5f; wmShape.Rotation = 315.0f; wmShape.LockAspectRatio = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoTrue; wmShape.Height = doc.Application.InchesToPoints(2.82f); wmShape.Width = doc.Application.InchesToPoints(5.64f); /* wmShape.WrapFormat.AllowOverlap = -1; //true wmShape.WrapFormat.Side = Word.WdWrapSideType.wdWrapBoth; wmShape.WrapFormat.Type = Word.WdWrapType.wdWrapNone; //3# */ wmShape.RelativeHorizontalPosition = Word.WdRelativeHorizontalPosition.wdRelativeHorizo ntalPositionMargin; wmShape.RelativeVerticalPosition = Word.WdRelativeVerticalPosition.wdRelativeVertical PositionMargin; wmShape.Left = (float)Word.WdShapePosition.wdShapeCenter; wmShape.Top = (float)Word.WdShapePosition.wdShapeCenter; //set focus back to document doc.Application.ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekV iew = Word.WdSeekView.wdSeekMainDocument; } // end addWatermark The problem i have is that I get an exception at line: wmShape.WrapFormat.AllowOverlap = -1; this excpetion indicated that the method or property is not available because the drawing operation cannot be applied to the current selection????? Any help greatly appreciated!!! Thnx |
