They have no interactive elements (such as buttons or + hyperlinks) and no navigational tools (such as table of contents). + \item The module comes with several predefined styles; these styles are sober + in appearance and meant for academic presentations. It also provides some + macros to help in presenting slides with both pictures and text. + \item Most styles allow for some degree of user|-|reconfigurability. Designing + a new style is also easy. +\stopitemize + +This module provides a simple structure that will be suitable for beginning or +intermediate users of \CONTEXT, or someone who does not want to spend too much +time playing around with different configuration options for \CONTEXT. As such +it focusses on different users than Hans's presentation modules that provide +more fancier features. This module also offers much less features than the +\LATEX\ \filename{beamer} package. Its main strength is its ease of use; you +should be able to write your first presentation after spending five minutes with +this manual. + +\section{A bit of history} + +The idea of a module suitable for simple presentations took shape when Thomas +started using \CONTEXT\ for preparing his course presentations. \CONTEXT\ comes +with a bunch of modules for presentations (the files \filename{s-pre-??.tex} in +\filename{$TEXMF/tex/context/base}) which are written by Hans Hagen. Hans +usually creates a new presentation style whenever he gives a talk about +\CONTEXT. As such, his presentation styles highlight the fancy and bleeding edge +features of \CONTEXT, and are not the most suitable starting point for academic +presentations. + +\CONTEXT\ does make creating your own presentation style relatively easy. So +Thomas wrote some presentation related macros (see the Prac\TEX\ article +{\tt\from[practex]}). With time, he extended these macros into a collection of +styles providing different visual effects, and later collected all of them in +the \filename{taspresent} module. He gave a talk about the +\filename{taspresent} module in in the second \CONTEXT\ user meeting at Bohinj, +and in the ensuing discussions, Aditya and Thomas decided to modularize and +\quotation{\CONTEXT{ize}} some of the internals of the module, giving rise to +the current module. Most of the code in the current release has been +contributed by Aditya. + +\section{Installation} + +The module is installed in the usual way: simply unzip the archive +\filename{t-simpleslides-.zip} into one of your \filename{$TEXMF} trees, +and from a terminal run \command{mktexlsr} (for \MKII) and \command{luatools +--generate} (for \MKIV). To verify that everything was installed correctly, from +a terminal run \command{kpsewhich t-simpleslides.tex} (for \MKII) and +\command{luatools t-simpleslides.tex} (for \MKIV); these commands should return +the complete path of the files that you just installed. + +\subsubject{A note about \TEX|-|engines} + +We have extensively tested this module with \PDFTEX\ and \LUATEX\ (that is, +with \MKII\ and \MKIV). In spite of our best efforts, we have not been able to +get this module to work reliably with \XETEX. If you are a \XETEX\ guru, and +know how to fix some of the errors with \XETEX, we will appreciate the help. + +\section{Quick start} + +First you must tell \CONTEXT\ that you want to use this module. To do this +simply write: + +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\usemodule[simpleslides] +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +This sets the paper size and font sizes to values that are suitable for +presentations. Everything else is left like a default \CONTEXT\ document. The +module provides different styles that change the visual appearance of the +presentation. The following styles are provided: +\startitemize[columns, three] + \item \options{BigNumber} + \item \options{BottomSquares} + \item \options{Boxed} + \item \options{Ellipse} + \item \options{Embossed} + \item \options{Framed} + \item \options{FramedTitle} + \item \options{HorizontalStripes} + \item \options{NarrowStripes} + \item \options{RainbowStripe} + \item \options{Rounded} + \item \options{Shaded} + \item \options{SideSquares} + \item \options{SideToc} + \item \options{Split} + \item \options{Sunrise} + \item \options{Swoosh} + \item \options{ThickStripes} +\stopitemize + +To use a style, say \options{BigNumber}, pass the \options{style=BigNumber} +option to the \filename{simpleslides} module as follows. + +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\usemodule[simpleslides] + [style=BigNumber] +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +Some of the styles have a few variants that can be chosen using +\options{color} and \options{alternative} keys. These are explained in \in +Section[sec:styles]. + +By default, the Latin Modern Sans font is used. The module makes it easy to +use other fonts that come with a typical \TEX\ distribution. +The following fonts are provided: +\startitemize[columns, three] + \item \options{LatinModern} + \item \options{LatinModernSans} + \item \options{Bookman} + \item \options{Chancery} + \item \options{Gothic} + \item \options{Helvetica} + \item \options{Palatino} + \item \options{Schoolbook} + \item \options{Times} +\stopitemize + +To choose a font, say \options{Helvetica}, pass \options{font=Helvetica} option +to the \filename{simpleslides} module as follows. +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\usemodule[simpleslides] + [style=BigNumber, + font=Helvetica] +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +By default, the chosen font is used at 17pt size. The font size can be changed +using the \options{size} key. + +More details about the fonts, including information on how to use your own fonts +is given in \in Section[sec:fonts]. + +The complete setup for using this module is +\setup{simpleslides} + +\subsubject{Structure of a presentation} + +The \filename{simpleslides} module has a very simple model of a presentation. A +presentation consists of a title followed by a series of slides; the module +provides macros to help create a presentation title page and slides. + +\subsubject{Presentation title page} + +A presentation title page displays the title of the presentation, the names of +the authors, and the date. +%% TODO: Also add institution and detail. +These can be specified using \typeTEX{\setupTitle} as follows: +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\setupTitle + [ title={Title of the presentation}, + author={Name of authors}, + date={Date of presentation}, + ] +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +The macro \typeTEX{\placeTitle} places the title page in the presentation. It is +possible to change the look of \typeTEX{\placeTitle} using some additional +arguments to \typeTEX{\setupTitle}. These are explained in \in +Section[sec:setuptitle]. + +\subsubject{Presentation slide} + +The \filename{simpleslides} module provides a \typeTEX{\SlideTitle} macro, which +starts a new slide (basically a new page), and typesets its argument as the +title of the slide. It also takes care of increasing the page counters and +progress bars, and setting up the background. The content of the slides follows +after this command. + +A slide is a normal \CONTEXT\ page, so you can use any command or environment +that you want. Each presentation style sets up a style for itemizations, and +provides useful macros for placing pictures. These macros will be explained +later. + +\adaptlayout[lines=+2] + +\subsubject{A minimal presentation} + +A minimal presentation is shown below. The result is shown in \in +Figure[fig:example]. + +\startEXAMPLE +\typefile[option=tex]{example.tex} +\stopEXAMPLE + +\placefigure + [top,bottom] + [fig:example] + {A minimal presentation} + \startcombination[2*2] + \startEXAMPLEframe[width=0.55\textwidth] +\startTEX + \usemodule[simpleslides] + [style=BigNumber] + \setupTitle[...] + + \starttext + \SlideTitle{...} + ... + \SlideTitle{...} + ... + \stoptext +\stopTEX + \stopEXAMPLEframe + {A minimal example} + {\externalfigure[example][page=1,width=0.55\textwidth]}{Title page} + {\externalfigure[example][page=2,width=0.55\textwidth]}{First slide} + {\externalfigure[example][page=3,width=0.55\textwidth]}{Second slide} + \stopcombination + + + +\section{Placing pictures} + +If you want to place pictures in your slides, you can always use \CONTEXT's +\typeTEX{\externalfigure} macro. This module also provides a macro, +\typeTEX{\IncludePicture}, for preconfigured picture layouts. Two layouts are +provided: +\startitemize + \item \options{horizontal}: the picture is placed under the title of the slide, + so that it fits in the available space. + \item \options{vertical}: the slide is divided into two columns; the picture is + placed on the left column and text is placed on the right column. +\stopitemize +These layouts are shown in \in Figure[fig:pictures]. + +\page + +% \placefigure +% [top,bottom] +% [fig:pictures] +% {Example of \options{horizontal} and \options{vertical} options for +% \typeTEX{\IncludePicture} macro} +% \startcombination[2*2] +% \startEXAMPLEframe[width=0.55\textwidth] +% \startTEX +% \usemodule[simpleslides] +% [...] +% \starttext +% ... +% \IncludePicture +% [horizontal] +% [cow] +% {A Dutch Cow} +% ... +% \stoptext +% \stopTEX +% \stopEXAMPLEframe +% {A horizontal picture} +% {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue] +% [page=3,width=0.55\textwidth]}{A horizontal picture} +% \startEXAMPLEframe[width=0.55\textwidth] +% \startTEX +% \usemodule[simpleslides] +% [...] +% \starttext +% ... +% \IncludePicture +% [vertical] +% [mill] +% {The windmills are an example of a green energy source} +% ... +% \stoptext +% \stopTEX +% \stopEXAMPLEframe +% {A vertical picture} +% {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue] +% [page=10,width=0.55\textwidth]}{A vertical picture} +% \stopcombination + +A horizontal picture is placed as follows: +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\IncludePicture + [horizontal] + [filename] % Name of the file that contains the picture + {Title of the slide} +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +while a vertical picture is placed as follows: +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\IncludePicture + [vertical] + [filename] % Name of the file that contains the picture + {Text that is placed on the right of the picture} +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +It is possible to change the height and width of the pictures, or +highlight them with circles and arrows. These details can be found in \in +Section[sec:pictures] + +\page + +\section[sec:styles]{Changing presentation styles} + +The \options{style} key to \typeTEX{\setupmodule[simpleslides]} determines the +look of the presentation.

It +has a thick blue frame around the entire slide area and a thinner frame around +the text area. The style has two options for alternative: +\options{alternative=stripe} will display a shaded blue area which will grow with +each slide; \options{alternative=square} displays a row of blue squares at the bottom +which also measure the presentation's progress. + +\ShowStyle {Framed-square} +\page + +\subsubject{Framed: with \options{alternative=stripe}} +\ShowStyle {Framed-stripe} +\page + +\subsubject{FramedTitle} + +This is a style with loud titles.

The main +text is set at size \typeTEX{\NormalSize}; the main title is set at +\typeTEX{\TitleSize} while the author and date on the title page, and the slide +title are set at \typeTEX{\SlideTitleSize}. + +\typeTEX{\NormalSize}, \typeTEX{\TitleSize}, and \typeTEX{\SlideTitleSize} are +defined in terms of the dimensions \typeTEX{\simpleslidesNormalSize}, +\typeTEX{\simpleslidesTitleSize}, and \typeTEX{\simpleslidesSlideTitleSize}. +\typeTEX{\simpleslidesNormalSize} is equal to the \options{size} option. The +module uses some heuristics to select a reasonable value of +\typeTEX{\simpleslidesTitleSize} and \typeTEX{\simpleslidesSlideTitleSize}. If +you do not like the size of the title page and slide titles, you can change +their value to whatever you like. + + +\section[sec:setuptitle]{Changing the title page} + +It is possible to change the look of \typeTEX{\placeTitle} using +\typeTEX{\setupTitle}. This feature is intended for authors creating a new +style, but may also be useful for someone who likes to tweak the presentation +style. You should normally only set the \options{title}, \options{authors}, and +\options{date} keys. If \options{date} is not set, then the module will default +to \typeTEX{\currentdate}. + +\setup{setupTitle} + +\section{Changing the slide titles} + +It is possible to change the look of \typeTEX{\SlideTitle} using +\typeTEX{\setupSlideTitle}. Like \typeTEX{\setupTitle}, this feature is intended +for authors creating a new style. You can use this command to make a minor +change in an existing style, if you want. + +\setup{setupSlideTitle} + +\section[sec:pictures]{Special macro for including pictures} + +As explained earlier, the \typeTEX{\IncludePicture} macro facilitates the +placement of pictures. It takes four arguments (one of which is optional, and as +such wasn't mentioned in the previous description). + +\setup{IncludePicture} + +As explained earlier, the first argument determines whether the picture will be +placed in horizontal or vertical layout; for examples, see \in +Figure[fig:pictures]. The second argument is the filename of the picture that +you want to include. The third argument is an optional argument useful for +highlighting the picture. The fourth argument (in braces) is the text +accompanying the picture. For horizontal pictures, this text is placed as a +\typeTEX{\SlideTitle}; for vertical pictures this text is placed opposite to the +picture, centered horizontally and vertically. + +The third argument is the most complex. It specifies picture dimensions and +highlights. If you want all pictures to share a common value (like +\options{color} or \options{shadow}), specify them using +\typeTEX{\setupPicture}. + +\setup{setupPicture} + +\null\blank +Below is a brief explanation of what the different parameters do: + +\startitemize[packed] + \item \options{width} and \options{height} \par + Unsurprisingly, these set the width and height of the picture. Normally, the + module will automatically scale your pictures to fill the available space, so + you only need to set one of these values if you want to override this + mechanism. + + \item \options{highlight} \par + This key determines the highlighting of the picture. If you set, + \options{highlight=yes}, then you can use one of the three available + highlights: \options{circle}, \options{arrow}, and \options{focus}. These + highlights are shown in \in Figure[fig:highlight]. The specific highlight is + chosen using the \options{alternative} key. The location of the highlight is + specified using the \options{x} and \options{y} keys. The scaling and + rotation of the highlights is set using \options{xscale}, \options{yscale}, + \options{length} and \options{direction}. + + \item \options{alternative} \par + When \options{highlight=yes}, three different highlights are + available: \options{circle}, \options{arrow}, and \options{focus}. + +\stopitemize + +\placefigure + [top,bottom] + [fig:highlight] + {Different highlight options available} + \startcombination[2*2] + {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue][page=3,width=0.55\textwidth]} + {Picture with \options{highlight=no} (default)} + {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue][page=7,width=0.55\textwidth]} + {Picture with \options{highlight=yes} and \options{alternative=circle}} + {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue][page=8,width=0.55\textwidth]} + {Picture with \options{highlight=yes} and \options{alternative=arrow}} + {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue][page=9,width=0.55\textwidth]} + {Picture with \options{highlight=yes} and \options{alternative=focus}} + \stopcombination + +\subsubject{Units for dimensions} + +All dimensions are specified relative to the width and height of the image, so +you do not have to change the location of your highlights if you change the +presentation style. The dimensions \options{x} and \options{y} should be a +number between 0 and 10. The \options{x} is scaled by 1/10 times the width of +the image; the \options{y} value is scaled by 1/10 times the height of the +image. The easiest way to understand this is to look at a scaled grid +superimposed on the picture, as in \in Figure[fig:grid]. The grid is configured +as follows: + +\startitemize[packed] + \item \options{grid} and \options{subgrid} \par + These options determine whether or not to show the grid and sub-grid. The + \options{grid} divides the height and width of the picture into 10 sections; + this is helpful for determining the exact position where you want to place + circles and arrows. The \options{subgrid} divides the grid into a finer + grid. Each cell is divided into \options{steps} times \options{steps} cells. + + \item \options{gridcolor} \par + This option determines the color in which the grid is drawn. It can be any + \CONTEXT\ color identifier. The default value is green. + + \item \options{steps} \par + The number of subdivisions for the \options{subgrid}. The default value is + 5. +\stopitemize + +\placefigure + [top,bottom] + [fig:grid] + {Grids for help in determining the location of highlight} + \startcombination[2] + {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue][page=4,width=0.55\textwidth]} + {Picture with \options{highlight=yes} and \options{grid=yes}} + {\externalfigure[styles/BigNumber-blue][page=5,width=0.55\textwidth]} + {Picture with \options{highlight=yes}, \options{grid=yes} and + \options{subgrid=yes}} + \stopcombination + +\subsubject{Highlighting by a circle} + +Now lets see how different highlight alternatives are specified. Suppose we want +to place the picture of a cow and highlight its head. To help determine the +center of the circle, we can first superimpose a fine grid on the picture, and +read the value for the center. From \in Figure[fig:grid], \options{x=1.4} and +\options{y=8.2} seems like a good value. Next we need to decide on the radius of +the circle. The radius can either be specified in terms of the \quotation{x +units} (1/10th of the picture width) or \quotation{y units} (1/10th of the +picture height). Lets try a radius of 1.5 \quotation{x units}. This can be +specified as \options{xscale=1.5}. If we wanted something in terms of +\quotation{y units}, we could have used \options{yscale}. If both +\options{xscale} and \options{yscale} are specified, we will get an ellipse. +Thus, to draw the circle highlight shown in \in Figure[fig:highlight], we wrote + +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\IncludePicture + [horizontal] + [cow] % Name of the image + [highlight=yes, + alternative=circle, + x=1.4, + y=8.2, + xscale=1.5, + shadow=bottomleft] + {The head of a dutch cow} +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +If \options{direction} key is specified, the circle (or the ellipse) will be +rotated by that amount (in degrees) in the counter clockwise direction. The +color in which the circle is drawn is specified using \options{color} key. The +thickness of the line is determined by \options{rulethickness} key. By default, +\options{color=orange} and \options{rulethickness} is 1/100th of the picture +width. + +In summary, the different keys related to \options{alternative=circle} are: +\startitemize[packed] + \item \options{highlight=yes} and \options{alternative=circle} \par + These are needed to specify a circle highlight. + \item \options{x} and \options{y} \par + The center of the circle in terms of scaled units. Their values should be + between 0 and 10. + \item \options{xscale} and \options{yscale} \par + The radius of the circle if only one options is specified. The major and + minor radii of the ellipse if both options are specified. + \item \options{direction} \par + The amount by which the circle is rotated. This only makes sense if we are + actually drawing an ellipse. + \item \options{rulethickness} \par + The line width of the circle. + \item \options{color} \par + The color of the circle. +\stopitemize + +\subsubject{Highlighting by an arrow} + +Suppose we want to include a picture of a cow and point out its mouth using an +arrow. An arrow is specified by three things, the location of its tip, given by +\options{x} and \options{y} keys; the length of the arrow, given by +\options{length} key; and the direction of the tail, given by +\options{direction} key. Thus, to draw the arrow highlight shown in \in +Figure[fig:highlight], we wrote +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\IncludePicture + [horizontal] + [cow] % Name of the image + [highlight=yes, + alternative=arrow, + x=0.4, + y=6.8, + direction=-90, + length=3cm, + shadow=bottomleft] + {The mouth of a dutch cow} +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +The different keys related to \options{alternative=arrow} are: +\startitemize[packed] + \item \options{highlight=yes} and \options{alternative=arrow} \par + These are needed to specify a arrow highlight. + \item \options{x} and \options{y} \par + The tip of the arrow in terms of scaled units. Their values should be + between 0 and 10. + \item \options{length} \par + The length of the arrow. This is a dimension. + \item \options{direction} \par + The amount by which the arrow is rotated. + \item \options{rulethickness} \par + The line width of the arrow. (Actually the line width of the arrow is twice + the given value. This is so that both arrows and circles look good with the + same value of rulethickness.) + \item \options{color} \par + The color of the arrow. +\stopitemize + +\subsubject{Highlighting by focus} + +Suppose we want place the picture of a cow, focus its head, and dull out rest of +the picture. The area to be focused is a circle (or an ellipse) and it can be +specified using \options{x} and \options{y} to indicate the center, +\options{xscale} and \options{yscale} to indicate the radius, and +\options{direction} to indicate the rotation. The keys \options{rulethickness} +and \options{color} do not have any effect. The area other than the focussed +area is washed out with a transparent color. The degree to which it is washed +out is determined by \options{opacity} (default value 0.5), and the color of the +unfocussed area is determined by \options{shadowcolor} (default value black). +Thus, to draw the focus highlight shown in \in Figure[fig:highlight], we wrote + +\startEXAMPLE +\startTEX +\IncludePicture + [horizontal] + [cow] % Name of the image + [highlight=yes, + alternative=focus, + x=1.4, + y=8.2, + xscale=1.5] + {The head of a dutch cow} +\stopTEX +\stopEXAMPLE + +The different keys related to \options{alternative=focus} are: +\startitemize[packed] + \item \options{highlight=yes} and \options{alternative=focus} \par + These are needed to specify a focus highlight. + \item \options{x} and \options{y} \par + The center of the circle in terms of scaled units. Their values should be + between 0 and 10. + \item \options{xscale} and \options{yscale} \par + The radius of the circle if only one options is specified. The major and + minor radii of the ellipse if both options are specified. + \item \options{direction} \par + The amount by which the circle is rotated. This only makes sense if we are + actually drawing an ellipse. + \item \options{opacity} \par + The opacity of the unfocussed area. \options{opacity=0} is transparent, + while \options{opacity=1} is completely opaque. + \item \options{shadowcolor} \par + The color of the unfocused area. +\stopitemize + +\subsubject{Adding shadows} + +When a circle or arrow highlight is used, adding a shadow to the highlight makes +them stand out more. The key related to shadows is: +\startitemize[packed] + \item \options{shadow} \par + This key determines whether shadows are placed or not. By default, shadows + are disabled. If not set to \options{no}, this key determines where the + shadow is placed: at \options{topleft}, \options{topright}, + \options{bottomleft}, or \options{bottomright}. Setting this key to + \options{yes} puts the shadow at \options{bottomright}. +\stopitemize + +\subsubject{Adding a specific page} + +To select a specific page from a multi-page pdf file, you can use +\options{page=} option. + +\stoptext + +% vim: foldmethod=marker foldmarker=<<<,>>> -- cgit v1.2.3
