| // Access the first slide inside the slides collection of the presentation | |
| ISlide slideForPng = presentationWithHyperlink.getSlides().get_Item(0); | |
| // Add the PNG Image from the disk in the images collection of the presentation | |
| IPPImage imageFromDisk = presentationWithHyperlink.getImages().addImage(new FileInputStream(new File("aspose_logo.png"))); | |
| // Insert a picture frame in the shapes collection of the slide | |
| IPictureFrame pictureFrame = slideForPng.getShapes().addPictureFrame(ShapeType.Rectangle, | |
| 20, 20, 90, 90, imageFromDisk); | |
| // Insert the hyperlink for the added picture frame | |
| pictureFrame.setHyperlinkClick(new Hyperlink("https://www.aspose.com/")); | |
