using System.Drawing;
using DevExpress.Docs;

namespace PresentationApiSample;

public class Program {
    public static void Main(string[] _) {

        Presentation presentation = new Presentation();
        presentation.Slides.Clear();

        Slide slide = new Slide(SlideLayoutType.Blank);
        presentation.Slides.Add(slide);

        Shape shape1 = new Shape(ShapeType.Rectangle);
        shape1.Outline = new LineStyle { Fill = new SolidFill(Color.RoyalBlue), Width = 8 };
        shape1.Fill = new SolidFill(Color.White);
        shape1.X = 1100;
        shape1.Y = 1100;
        shape1.Width = 300;
        shape1.Height = 300;
        slide.Shapes.Add(shape1);

        ShapeEffectProperties e_properties = new ShapeEffectProperties();

        e_properties.PresetShadow = new PresetShadowEffect {
            Color = new OfficeColor(Color.Gray),
            Angle = 45,
            Distance = 50,
            Type = PresetShadowType.BottomLeftDrop
        };

        shape1.Effects = e_properties;
    }
