UNO: iterate over objects in Impress slides

[Hi-Angel]

How to iterate over objects inside slides, such as e.g. images, tables, etc?

For example, the code below connects to Impress, and retrieves 1st slide. But, how do I e.g. get images on this page?

#!python
import uno

# run libreoffice as:
# soffice --calc --accept="socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager"

def connectToLO():
    # get the uno component context from the PyUNO runtime
    localContext = uno.getComponentContext()
    resolver = localContext.ServiceManager.createInstanceWithContext(
        "com.sun.star.bridge.UnoUrlResolver", localContext )
    # connect to the running office
    ctx = resolver.resolve( "uno:socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;StarOffice.ComponentContext" )
    smgr = ctx.ServiceManager
    desktop = smgr.createInstanceWithContext( "com.sun.star.frame.Desktop",ctx)
    return desktop.CurrentComponent

model = connectToLO()
slide1 = model.DrawPages.getByIndex(0)
print(slide1.Name)

The document should implement com.sun.star.drawing.XDrawPagesSupplier interface. It allows to get access to com.sun.star.drawing.XDrawPages; the latter gives indexed access to individual com.sun.star.drawing.XDrawPage; and that interface gives indexed access to individual shapes.

So in essence, you get access to elements on the slide1 using

slide1.getByIndex(n)

Anyway, I would suggest you to look at APSO extension (and the introspection tools mentioned there).
