v2.6.4-Alpha

V2.6.4-Alpha

I'm excited to introduce the alpha release of OpenXML-Office, version 2.6.4, packed with new features and improvements that enhance compatibility and usability.

Global Changes:

• Extending compatibility to broader targets, .NET Framework support now spans from .NET 7.0 to .NET 4.5, with additional support for .NET Core and Standard. The package now bundles builds for .NET 4.5, .NET Standard 2.0, and .NET 7.0, expanding its compatibility across multiple versions. Refer to the NuGet package page for more details.

Presentation:

• Resolved issue with Google Slide uploads.
• Future releases will expose additional metadata properties in presentation options, expanding customization beyond core properties loaded with OpenXML-Office Constants.

Excel:

• Fixed issue with misplaced shared strings.
• Addressed problem with old styles not being retained upon editing existing files.
• Fixed issue with Google Sheet uploads.
• Future releases will expose additional metadata properties in presentation options, extending customization beyond core properties loaded with OpenXML-Office Constants.

Documentation:

• Gitbook documentation is updated in parallel with the 2.x alpha version page.

Deprecation Notice:

• OpenXMLOffice.Excel package is now marked as deprecated and will no longer be maintained or supported. I recommend migrating to OpenXMLOffice.Spreadsheet package, introduced with v2.x, for continued support and enhancements.

As always, I'm committed to enhancing the OpenXMLOffice experience, ensuring compatibility and usability across various platforms and applications. Your feedback continues to be invaluable as I shape the future of OpenXML-Office. Thank you for your ongoing support and involvement in our journey.
