Adding an image to a slide gives me a blank image object

[ed1023]

I must be doing something wrong, but when I try to add an image to a slide then i down load and open the ppt i get a blank image shape in the slide.

I am running the latest version of phppowerpoint from trunk.

and here is the code I am using to create my slide with image:

    //creating next slide
    $currentSlide = $powerpoint->getActiveSlide();
    $slide = $powerpoint->createSlide();
    $shape = $slide->createRichTextShape();
    $shape->setHeight(200);
    $shape->setWidth(900);
    $shape->setOffsetX(30);
    $shape->setOffsetY(50);
    $shape->getAlignment()->setHorizontal( PHPPowerPoint_Style_Alignment::HORIZONTAL_CENTER );
    $textRun = $shape->createTextRun("Numbers of Cases and proportion (%) of Any FASD in " .  $_SESSION["NUMBIRTHS"] . " Women from ". $_SESSION["LOCATION"] . " in " . $_SESSION["DATE"] . ".");
    $textRun->getFont()->setBold(true);
    $textRun->getFont()->setSize(30);
    $textRun->getFont()->setColor( new PHPPowerPoint_Style_Color( '555555' ) );
    //adding an image to the slide
    $shape2 = $slide->createDrawingShape();
    $shape2->setName('Alcohol Exposure');
    $shape2->setDescription('Pie Chart');
    $shape2->setPath('./pictures/51dab21966436.jpg');
    $shape2->setHeight(170);
    $shape2->setOffsetX(100);
    $shape2->setOffsetY(100); 

If any one can tell me where I am going off the path or give me some pointers I would be grateful.

Hi @ed1023, could you test with the last version of the develop branch ?

Because I test your code with this one and PPTX (or ODP) display correctly.

Hi,
I have a similar issue. It appears to only be a problem in Office 2013.

I am inserting a PDF into a slide and it works fine except in office 2013. there is an error: "this image cannot currently be displayed"

If i open it in a later version of office, save it, then open it in 2013 again it works fine. This would suggest that there is something 2013 doesn't like about the generated file.
