How to Copy/Insert All Elements of A Slide Within the Same Presentation












1















I am trying to write code that will take a slide and all of the elements on that slide, and duplicate it in another location in the same Slides presentation.



With my current code, I am able to get it to copy the slide over, but not the individual elements. 



function summaryslide() {

  var doc = SlidesApp.getActivePresentation();

  var docId = doc.getId();

  var copysrcSlideIndex = 1;

  var copydstSlideIndex = 6;

  var srcSlide = SlidesApp.getFileById(docId).getSlides[copysrcSlideIndex];

  SlidesApp.getFileById(docId).insertSlide(copydstSlideIndex);

}


I need to 2 things to happen. I need to be able to copy over the entire slide to the next to last slide. There are 2 caveats to doing it though that I hope are solvable. The elements will likely not be the same each time, as this slide will be modified each time it's used. The number of slides in the presentation will likely be changing each time it's used. (The current code is based on a fixed number of slides.)

          You can use Slide.duplicate() and Slide.move() methods as shown below:



          // Argument index starts with 0 for the first slide
          
// This is a source slide for duplicating
          
function duplicateSlideByIndex(index) {
          
  var p = SlidesApp.getActivePresentation();
          
  var slide = p.getSlides()[index].duplicate();  // duplicated slide
          
  slide.move(p.getSlides().length);
          
}

                    Image
                    Monofisismo (do grego: monos - "único, singular" e physis - "natureza") é o ponto de vista cristológico que defende que, depois da união do divino e do humano na encarnação histórica, Jesus Cristo, como encarnação do Filho ou Verbo ( Logos ) de Deus, teria apenas uma única "natureza", a divina, e não uma síntese de ambas. O monofisismo é contraposto pelo diofisismo (ou "diafisismo"), que defende que Jesus preservou em si as duas naturezas. Historicamente, o monofisismo se refere primordialmente à posição dos que (especialmente no Egito e, em menor grau, na Síria) rejeitaram as decisões do Concílio de Calcedônia em 451 (o quarto concílio ecumênico). Os membros mais moderados entre eles, porém, defendem a teologia "miafisita", que se tornou a oficial para as Igrejas Ortodoxas Orientais. Muitos ortodoxos orientais, porém, rejeitam essa classificação, mesmo como um termo genérico, mas ele é amplamente utilizado na literatura históri...

                    Monumento 1, uma das quatro cabeças colossais encontradas em La Venta, com altura aproximada de 3 metros Olmecas é a designação do povo e da civilização que estiveram na origem da antiga cultura pré-colombiana da Mesoamérica e que se desenvolveram nas regiões tropicais do centro-sul do atual México durante o pré-clássico, próximo de onde hoje estão localizados os estados mexicanos de Veracruz e Tabasco, no Istmo de Tehuantepec, numa zona designada área nuclear olmeca. A cultura olmeca floresceu nesta região aproximadamente entre 1500 e 400 a.C., [ 1 ] e crê-se que tenha sido a civilização-mãe de todas as civilizações mesoamericanas que se desenvolveram posteriormente. [ 2 ] No entanto, desconhece-se a sua exacta filiação étnica, ainda que existam numerosas hipóteses colocadas para tentar resolver esta questão. O etnónimo olmeca foi cunhado pelos arqueólogos do século XX, e não devem confundir-se com os muito posteriores olmecas-xicalancas que ocuparam vários locais do México...
