I prefer to have Nprinting send data into the native PowerPoint charts/shapes/textboxes rather than use screenshots as I find they tend to look more crisp and professional. However sometimes I want the bars on the chart or the background color of the textbox to be conditionally colored based on the value that Nprinting stamps there.
I know how to do this with vba macros but I don't see a way to have Nprinting execute the macro before saving the file.
Is there a way to enable the execution of macros as the file is being saved or could it be added in a future update?
Either that or Nprinting to allow us to color the bars/backgrounds of the native PowerPoint objects via qlik expressions.

Thanks for the reply.
Do you know if the fact that NPrinting never executes macros when creating reports is a technical limitation or something they just chose not to allow?
I have to imagine that under the hood Nprinting is using the same Microsoft office API that macros use when Nprinting is replacing the tags with data/images so I would think it would be possible for it to run a user generated macro at the end of the process.
I have tried to post an idea before but apparently community accounts can only VOTE on ideas, not post them.
Hi @devan9876
My knowledge is only limited to what we can see in release notes, documentation and topics on community. I don't have any insights on whether feature you would like to have is technically viable .
As per ideas you may want to speak to your Qlik Account or Partner to request that feature for you.
thanks
