In this chapter we will define a simple document +style. This style was written for the \PDFTEX\ presentations at the TUG 2000 +conference in Oxford (UK). + +This style exploits a few tricks, like graphics calculated using positional +information. It also demonstrates how you can make menu buttons that dynamically +adapt their shapes to the rest of the page layout. + +\startbuffer[screens] +\startlinecorrection[blank] +\setupcombinations[distance=.0125\textwidth] +\startcombination[5*1] + {\typesetfile[mfun-77\ScrNum.tex][page=1,width=.19\textwidth]} {page 1} + {\typesetfile[mfun-77\ScrNum.tex][page=2,width=.19\textwidth]} {page 2} + {\typesetfile[mfun-77\ScrNum.tex][page=3,width=.19\textwidth]} {page 3} + {\typesetfile[mfun-77\ScrNum.tex][page=4,width=.19\textwidth]} {page 4} + {\typesetfile[mfun-77\ScrNum.tex][page=5,width=.19\textwidth]} {page 5} +\stopcombination +\stoplinecorrection +\stopbuffer + +\def\ScrNum{1} \getbuffer[screens] + +Later we will see an instance with some more randomness in the graphics. While +writing this style, the random alternative made me think of those organic +buildings with non equal windows |<|we have a few of those in The Netherlands|>|, +so I decided to label this style as \type {pre-organic}.

Because this graphic will change, we +define a useable \METAPOST\ graphic. Page backgrounds are recalculated each page, +opposite to the other backgrounds that are calculated when a new background is +defined, or when repetitive calculation is turned on. + +\starttyping +\setupbackgrounds [page] [background=page] +\defineoverlay [page] [\useMPgraphic{page}] +\setupMPvariables [page] [alternative=3] +\stoptyping + +We will implement three alternative backgrounds. First we demonstrate the +relatively simple super ellipsed one. The main complication is that we want the +button shapes to follow the right edge of the curve that surrounds the text. We +don't know in advance how many lines of text there will be in a button, and we +also don't know at what height it will end up. Therefore, we need to calculate +each button shape independently and for that purpose we need to know its position +(see \in {chapter} [sec:positioning]). In \in {figure} [fig:style] you can see +what lines we need in order to be calculate the button shapes. + +\startpostponing + +\startmode[screen] + \placefigure + [here][fig:style] + {The lines used to calculate the button shapes.} + {\externalfigure[mfun-774.pdf][page=1,height=.85\textheight]} +\stopmode + +\startnotmode[screen] + \placefigure + [here][fig:style] + {The auxiliary lines used to calculate the button shapes.} + {\rotate{\externalfigure[mfun-774.pdf][page=1,height=\textwidth]}} +\stopnotmode + +\page + +\stoppostponing + +We separate the calculation of the button shape from the rest by embedding it in +its own usable graphic container.
