pre = Presentation('myPresentation.pptx');

Create a message dispatcher.

dispatcher = MessageDispatcher.getTheDispatcher;
l = addlistener(dispatcher,'Message', ...
      @(src, evtdata) disp(evtdata.Message.formatAsText));

Dispatch the message.

open(pre);
dispatch(dispatcher,ProgressMessage('starting presentation',pre));

Add presentation content.

titleText = Text('This is a Title');
titleText.Style = {Bold};
