Append text with a different style to the end

[Miss Adorable]

Hello! I want to programmatically insert these two consecutive words in TextBox in Google Slides colored differently. I know how to append paragraphs with different styles (I use the code below to do this task):

const firstSlide = presentation.getSlides()[0]

const textBox = firstSlide.insertTextBox("first")

textBox.getText().appendParagraph("second")

textBox.getText().getParagraphs()[0].getRange().getTextStyle().setBackgroundColor(100, 100, 0)

But how to do the same with text? I don't want two words to be on different lines.

To insert two consecutive words in a TextBox in Google Slides with different text styles (such as different colors), you can use the insertText method along with the TextRange class to apply different styles to different parts of the text. Here's how you can do it:

javascriptCopy code
function insertColoredWords() {
  // Get the presentation
  const presentation = SlidesApp.getActivePresentation();

  // Get the first slide
  const firstSlide = presentation.getSlides()[0];

  // Insert a TextBox
  const textBox = firstSlide.insertTextBox("first");

  // Get the text range of the TextBox
  const textRange = textBox.getText();

  // Insert the first word with the desired style
  textRange.insertText("first", 0);
  textRange.getRange(0, 5).getTextStyle().setForegroundColor(255, 0, 0); // Set color to red

  // Insert the second word with a different style
  textRange.insertText("second", 5); // Insert after the first word
  textRange.getRange(5, 11).getTextStyle().setForegroundColor(0, 0, 255); // Set color to blue
}

In this code:

• We insert the first word ("first") at index 0.
• Then, we set the text color of the first word to red using the getTextStyle() method on the range from index 0 to 5 (exclusive).
• Next, we insert the second word ("second") at index 5 (after the first word).
• Finally, we set the text color of the second word to blue using the getTextStyle() method on the range from index 5 to 11 (exclusive).

This way, both words will appear consecutively in the TextBox with different text colors. Adjust the colors and other styles as needed.
