Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your quick answer. Actually, mistakenly, I thought you had gave up 
the simplesildes module, not Aditya… And I included Wolfgang because he follows 
everything and has insight for everything…

Anyhow, thank you for sharing this nice module. Actually sometimes it is useful 
to have the interaction and some links working in a presentation, at least in 
maths. Imagine a case in which you introduce an equation and later on you refer 
to it and someone asks to show it again.
Also it is handy to have a list of topics because this way one can go back 
easily to the page where the list is and go quickly to such and such topic. 
Moreover it happens that one can prepare a topic but not show it unless there 
is a specific demand.

Now, from an esthetic point of view for the swoosh, it is not obvious where to 
put the list, but when there are only a few topics (as is usually the case) 
then one can find an appropriate setting of the list.
Another solution would be to have the nice visual counter to be interactive and 
so clicking on a certain number would go to the wanted topic.

In any case thanks again!
Best regards: OK

Hi Otared,

I think you're best off following Aditya's suggestion. Excuse me for saying that I still don't find your use case quite compelling and would be very reluctant to introduce a change in design which rests on so many ifs (if there are only few topics and if interaction is desired...). Moreover, I'm not quite certain what you're looking for: a special slide that will hold some sort of TOC? Or a list of topics that will be displayed on every slide (as in s-pre-19, provided in the distribution)? What is a "topic": every slide title? Or a sort of section that will encompass several slides?

As for the counter: that may be possible, but is far beyond my coding ability. There is an interactionmenu which is part of the distribution (see scrn-but.mkvi); maybe it would be easier if you used this rather than the counters provided by simpleslides.

All best

Thomas
