Hello!

I hope this is an appropriate place to suggest this. Happy to shift to the -JS conversation zone if you wish.

Currently, I am using MSWord 2024 ProPlus LTSC for diagrams.

I see that there is some kind of "plugin container object" with not options, and in the container the PNG and text that the plugin detects and completely replaces when updating.

Image

The situations I have in particular;

  • Rotating and resizing the diagram. When the diagram is updated, the rotation and size are lost.

Workaround - using a text box I can rotate and restrict some resizing, and get some of the size attributes wanted,

  • splitting one diagram over two pages using image crop properties.

Obviously, as the image is fully replaced, the alteration is lost. I don't have a workaround for this yet, but potentially might put a textbox over the margin and bleed of the product.

I don't know if it would to easy to query the pluggin "container", and check if the PNG object still exists, then capture the image formatting. I think it would be quite worthwhile to check it out.
