<div>Hello Everyone,</div><div>In the beginning of the week,I was able to complete the required changes in XML parser function(for extracting slide layout information).</div><div><br></div><div>But,after that I was caught up with the unit-test error(related to configuration XML file) for rest of the 4 days.It seemed to me as a bug in the unit-test process,because in-spite of having made proper entry in the "Package_unittest.mk" and "layoutlist.xml" being added at "unit-test" file-path,the error came up(with wrongly generated path). I have already posted my question to mailing-list <a href="http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Unit-Test-Fail-Error-GSOC-Slide-Layout-Extendibility-td4064300.html" target="_blank">Link</a> and I am thankful for the reply from Markus.</div>
<div>And I will soon resolve this error with appropriate guidance and discussion on mailing-list/ IRC. </div><div><br></div><div>As of now ,I have moved ahead with addition of some new layouts to "layoutlist.xml". I will peak up more speed from now on-wards.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also for the current status:</div><div>+ I pushed one commit with required changes(last week).</div><div>+ XML parser works in-spite of unit-test errors.</div><div>+ So information from configuration XML file "layoutlist.xml" is extracted perfectly.</div>

<div><br></div><div>Currently in the slide layouts, Placeholder object's height,width,position are hard-coded. So,I did following things during this week:</div>
<div><br></div><div>+So at first ,I started with creation of XML file which stores following information:</div><div>(1) Layout Type</div><div>(2) "PresObj" Kind</div><div>(3) Position co-ordinates of "PresObj"</div>
<div>(4) Size of "PreObj"(Width and Height)</div><div><br></div><div>+ I have started coding XML parser, which will read this information from XML file and set the appropriate parameters in the function "CalcAutoLayoutRectangles" (This function calculates/sets the Top Position,Height and Width of Rectangle "PresObj" used.) And this will parser will help in bringing configurability with Slide Layouts.</div>
<div><br></div><div>+ So XML parser should be fully completed, probably by "Monday" or "Tuesday"(mostly it should get completed by this weekend).</div><div><br></div><div>+ Next week,I will work on understanding "Slide Mater View" and on using "Slide Mater View" to edit the current built-in layouts.</div>
