You can create a custom slide with picture and table in same slide.

You can add a slide using the PPT API. You can find out the slide layout name in PowerPoint and using the API.

Hi Kaustubh,

You can use the "Two Content" layout to add a picture and table to the same slide.

Below is an example:

% Create a presentation
import mlreportgen.ppt.*
ppt = Presentation("myPresentation.pptx");
open(ppt);

% Add a slide using the "Two Content" layout
slide = add(ppt,"Two Content");
replace(slide,"Title","Slide with Picture and Table")

% Add a picture on the left side of the slide
replace(slide,"Left Content",Picture(which("b747.jpg")));

% Add a table on the right side of the slide
replace(slide,"Right Content",Table(magic(5)));

% Close and view the presentation
close(ppt);
rptview(ppt);

If you wish to customize the placeholders location or add more placeholders to it, you can setup a custom template to add a customized layout by following the link: https://www.mathworks.com/help/rptgen/ug/set-up-the-powerpoint-template.html.

Thanks,
