### Get Effect Subtype - C# and VB.NET

Source: https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/windowsforms/Syncfusion.Presentation.IEffect.html

This example demonstrates how to retrieve the subtype of an animation effect applied to a shape on a presentation slide. It builds upon the basic presentation creation and animation setup.

```C#

// Add a slide to the presentation.
ISlide slide = ppDoc.Slides.Add(SlideLayoutType.Blank);
// Add shape on the slide
IShape shape = slide.Shapes.AddShape(AutoShapeType.Diamond, 150, 150, 250, 150);
// Add animation effect on the slide with shape
IEffect effect = ppDoc.Slides[0].Timeline.MainSequence.AddEffect(shape, EffectType.Bounce, EffectSubtype.None, EffectTriggerType.OnClick);
// Get the subtype from the effect
EffectSubtype effectSubType = effect.Subtype;
// Save the presentation file
ppDoc.Save("Sample.pptx");
// Close the presentation file
ppDoc.Close();
```

```VB.NET
'Create a new presentation
Dim ppDoc As IPresentation = Presentation.Create()
'Add a slide to the presentation.
Dim slide As ISlide = ppDoc.Slides.Add(SlideLayoutType.Blank)
'Add shape on the slide
Dim shape As IShape = slide.Shapes.AddShape(AutoShapeType.Diamond, 150, 150, 250, 150)

### GridFormulaParsingEventArgs Example

Source: https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/windowsforms/Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridFormulaParsingEventArgs.html

Example demonstrating how to use the GridFormulaParsing event to treat text starting with '+' or '-' as formulas.

## Example Usage

Here is a code snippet that shows how to tell a grid to also treat any text in a formula cell that begins with a minus(-) or a plus(+) as formulas. The default behavior is to treat only text beginning with equal(=) as formulas.

```csharp
//subscribe to the event before any formulas are loaded into the grid...
this.engine = ((GridFormulaCellModel)gridControl1.CellModels["FormulaCell"]).Engine;
this.engine.FormulaParsing += new GridFormulaParsingEventHandler(engine_FormulaParsing);

//Here is the handler code that adds an = if necessary so any string beginning with +, - or =
is treated as a formula.
void engine_FormulaParsing(object sender, GridFormulaParsingEventArgs e)
{
    //allow cells starting with + and - to be treated as formula cells.
    if (e.Text.StartsWith("-"))
         e.Text = "=" + e.Text;
    else if (e.Text.StartsWith("+"))
         e.Text = "=" + e.Text.Substring(1);
}
```

IPresentationChart chart = slide.Charts.AddChart(100, 10, 700, 500);
chart.ChartData.SetValue(1, 2, "Jan");
chart.ChartData.SetValue(1, 3, "Feb");
chart.ChartData.SetValue(1, 4, "March");
chart.ChartData.SetValue(2, 1, "2010");
chart.ChartData.SetValue(2, 2, "60");
chart.ChartData.SetValue(2, 3, "70");
chart.ChartData.SetValue(2, 4, "80");

serieJan.Values = chart.ChartData[2, 2, 4, 2]; 
serieJan.TrendLines.Add();
IOfficeChartTrendLine trendline = serieJan.TrendLines[0];
trendline.Type = OfficeTrendLineType.Polynomial;
trendline.Intercept = 0.8;
trendline.Name = "Trendline";
trendline.Order = 3;
trendline.ClearFormats();
presentation.Save("Output.pptx");
presentation.Close();
```

//Create new PDF standard font.
PdfFont font = new PdfStandardFont(PdfFontFamily.Courier, 14);
//Create new PdfTemplate object.
PdfTemplate template = new PdfTemplate(new SizeF(200, 100));
//Get the template graphics.
PdfGraphics graphics = template.Graphics;
//Get the template width.
float width = template.Width;
Console.Write("Template width: " + width);
//Draw the text to the template graphics.
graphics.DrawString("This is PDF template.", font, PdfBrushes.Black, new PointF(0,0));
//Draw a rectangle on the template graphics
graphics.DrawRectangle(PdfBrushes.BurlyWood, new RectangleF(0, 20, 200, 50));
//Draw the template to PDF page.
template.Draw(page, PointF.Empty);
//Save the document.
doc.Save("Output.pdf");
//Close the document.
doc.Close(true);
