How iTe works

+ +

+The following LATEX2e code is a minimal working example. + +

+

+   \documentclass{article}
+   \usepackage{ite}
+   \begin{document}
+
+   \begin{iteblock}(5cm,5cm)
+   \ite Hello
+   \ite World
+   \end{iteblock}
+
+   \end{document}
+
+

+It defines two active iTe objects (`Hello' and `World'). +Upon starting iTe, active objects can be manipulated interactively. +The possible operations are translation, rotation and scaling. The +origin for these operations is the lower left corner of the box +defined by the iteblock environment. For an active object, iTe +establishes a one-to-one relationship between its LATEX source code +and the corresponding PostScript code fragment. All operations are +then simultaniously recorded in both the LATEX source and in the GhostScript window. For example, if the `Hello' is translated, +rotated by 90 degrees and scaled by a factor of 2, then the +corresponding LATEX source will look like this: + +

+

+   \ITE(50 70 90 2) Hello
+
+

+Sometimes, you might be pressed to define iTe objects inside macros +or saved boxes. If this is the case, many PostScript code fragments +may correspond to one LATEX source object. Here you have to use +passive objects. The use of active objects inside macros and +saved boxes is not checked and will utterly confuse iTe. +Passive objecst behave like active objects, but cannot be manipulated +interactively. See the definition of the itebind latex environment on how to generate passive objects. + +
