It seems straightforward, but I am not able to access the slide background.
from pptx import Presentation
presentation = Presentation()
slide_layout = presentation.slide_layouts[5] # 5 corresponds to a blank slide
slide = presentation.slides.add_slide(slide_layout)
print(slide) # this prints: <pptx.slide.Slide object at 0x12ebbc280>
background = slide.background # AttributeError: 'Slide' object has no attribute 'background'
When I look at the documentation, Slide object does have an attribute called background. Then why do I get the error AttributeError: 'Slide' object has no attribute 'background'?
I am using python-pptx 0.6.2. I must be doing something silly, but after some head-scratching I thought I would ask. Thank you!
