What exactly are you using Java for there? What exactly doesn't work as you expect it?
It's java throughout the whole thing, it's a project asked by professor, the section that writes the slides is very buggy
I can send you the actual code for you to see
So you have a Java program creating Google docs slides?
What exactly happens and how is that different from your expectations?
Yeah it reads Google docs and converts it to Google slides s
We don't exactly know how Google slides API fully works
The text comes out outside the slides, the images are not centered where they should be
It's just messy
Can you show the relevant code?
Are you using a library?
We're using Google slides API, I really don't know much about this stuff, I just started my first year of java

It's a bit of a mess
I can't even execute it on my own cause my pc is shit
I think you can put the text inside of some shape
How so
there is this example

that creates a
TEXT_BOX shape with a specific sizeSo it's an outside class that I call on whenever I make text for the slides writer?
If you want to store text with size constraints, I'd say make a
CreateShapeRequest beforeIdk what that is, sorry man, I'm a complete beginner when it comes to this stuff
