Hi,

Please, help me with SimpleSlides module (Swoosh style), my old
presentation which I'm trying to update isn't working.

-- Minimal example is: --

\usemodule[simpleslides]

[font=Gothic,

style=Swoosh]


\setupTitle

[NTG-context] simpleslides

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

I gave a try to Simple slides... It seems to be very nice, but a few 
questions raised immediately


1) I get warnings (in mkiv):
(c:/contextminimal/texmf-context/tex/context/third/simple-slides/simpleslides-f-default.tex
simpleslides: loading default font setup
fonts   : beware: fontclass ignored (if needed use: 
[fontclass][size][settings])
fonts   : beware: fontclass ignored (if needed use: 
[fontclass][size][settings])
fonts   : beware: fontclass ignored (if needed use: 
[fontclass][size][settings])

))

2) How to use arbitrary fonts (e.g., specified in type-win)?

Best,
Vyatcheslav

In simpleslides-s-Swoosh.tex change line 150 and surrounding lines with:

[NTG-context] Simpleslides crash

[Otared Kavian]

Dear Aditya and Thomas,

Using the simpleslides seems impossible with the latest beta (ConTeXt  ver: 
2012.01.25 14:16 MKIV  fmt: 2012.1.31): mkiv stops with a « fatal error » on 
this minimal test:

\setupTitle

Is there a solution?

Thanks in advance: OK

[NTG-context] simpleslides broken?

[Ondřej Hošek]

Hello,

I'm having troubles with the simpleslides module; for example, my
favorite style, Swoosh, turned from dark-blue-on-light-blue to
white-on-black and the swoosh position seems to have changed.

Minimal testcase:

\usemodule[simpleslides][style=Swoosh]
\starttext
\SlideTitle{Test Slide}
Some content.
\stoptext

Output:
http://ondrahosek.dyndns.org/simpleslides-brokenswoosh.pdf

What went wrong?

Cheers,
~~ Ondra

[NTG-context] simpleslides bug?

[Zhichu Chen]

Maybe this is my fault. The simpleslides module works just fine these days
and I "accidentally" updated the ConTeXt to the latest version:

context --version

mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.60
mtx-context |
mtx-context | main context file:
/opt/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
mtx-context | current version: 2013.02.13 18:06

and this small piece of code failed to compile:

\usemodule[simpleslides][style=BigNumber]
\starttext
\SlideTitle{Test}
test
\stoptext

and gave me the following error message:

simpleslides> loading Big Number style

there're more and if it is important for the diagnostics please let me know
and I will provide the whole message which I thought was relevant.


Anyone can confirm this?

Ignore these for the time being. ConTeXt MkIV changed behaviour a few days 
before we released the module. This will be fixed in the next release.



2) How to use arbitrary fonts (e.g., specified in type-win)?


See page 25 of the manual, the subsection titled "Choosing your own font"

[NTG-context] simpleslides: titlestyle

[Alan BRASLAU]

Hi,

The simpleslides module seems to be ignoring
the titlestyle (by default \switchtobodyfont[\TitleSize])
and titlecolor parameters.

Minimal example:
generic-talk-15min-45min.tex
(tex/texmf-context/doc/context/third/simpleslides/solutions)

[NTG-context] Simpleslides and LMTX

[Otared Kavian via ntg-context]

Hi Aditya and Thomas,

Following the hint given by Thomas about fixing the behaviour of the visual 
counter in the simpleslides module, I tried all the possible styles and found 
that once the PageNumber is changed into RealPageNumber in the 
s-simpleslides-*.tex
style files. All the styles work fine unless three of them which I describe 
below.
I don’t know how the modules are maintained on the wiki or elsewhere, but if 
you wish I can send you privately the files where I have changed PageNumber to 
RealPageNumber so that the simpleslides module can be used ot of the box with 
LMTX.

Best regards: Otared
PS: Here are the issues with the three styles which don’t work properly:

• BigNumber: for the style to be typeset,  one has to modify the part where 
BigNumberFont is defined

%\beginOLDTEX
%\loadmapfile[qhv-ec.map]
%\definefontsynonym  [BigNumberFont] [ec-qhvb] 
%\endOLDTEX
%
%\beginXETEX
%\loadmapfile[qhv-ec.map]
%\definefontsynonym  [BigNumberFont] [ec-qhvb] 
%\endXETEX
%
%\beginLUATEX
\definefontsynonym  [BigNumberFont] [name:texgyreherosbold]
%\endLUATEX

Then the file « example.tex » can be typeset, but the big numbers shown are 
always 1.

• Embossed: for the style to be typeset, one has to modify the part where 
EmbossedFont is defined

%\beginOLDTEX
%\loadmapfile[qhv-ec.map]
%\definefontsynonym [Embossed] [ec-qhvb] 
%\endOLDTEX
%
%\beginXETEX
%\loadmapfile[qhv-ec.map]
%\definefontsynonym [Embossed] [ec-qhvb] 
%\endXETEX
%
%\beginLUATEX
\definefontsynonym [Embossed] [name:texgyreherosbold]
%\endLUATEX

• SideToc: the file example.tex can be typeset with this style, but all pages 
come out in black… the text cannot be seen.

[NTG-context] simpleslides/metapost bug ?

[zs]

Hello everybody.

Can you please confirm that following code fails:

\usemodule[simpleslides]
\starttext
\IncludePicture[horizontal][cow][highlight=yes, alternative=circle, x=1, y=1, 
xscale=1, yscale=1, shadow=bottomleft]{hello}
\stoptext

And this does not:

\usemodule[simpleslides]
\starttext
\IncludePicture[horizontal][cow][highlight=no, alternative=circle, x=1, y=1, 
xscale=1, yscale=1, shadow=bottomleft]{hello}
\stoptext

It seems like something goes wrong when circle is made.
I can't find what is wrong from error messages.

I will be back on Friday next week to answer.

Regards

Zdenek

[NTG-context] simpleslides + combinepages != qpdf

[Reviczky, Adam]

Hi

Here's another qpdf problem I've encountered lately. Not sure if it's ConTeXt's 
fault (simpleslides perhaps?) or qpdf.

Given the following very minimalistic examples:
% slides.tex
\usemodule[simpleslides][style=BigNumber,font=Helvetica]
\starttext
\placeTitle
\stoptext

%handout.tex
\setuppapersize
  [A4][A4] % or [A4,landscape][A4,landscape]
\setuplayout
  [header=0pt,footer=1cm,backspace=1cm,topspace=1cm,width=middle,height=middle]
\setupfootertexts
  [presentation---\currentdate\space---\space\pagenumber]
\starttext
  \combinepages[slides][nx=2,ny=3,frame=on]
\stoptext

context slides.tex && qpdf --linearize slides.pdf slidesout.pdf
=> results in the expected outputs

context handout.tex
=> compiles fine and output is as expected

qpdf --linearize handout.pdf handoutout.pdf
=> aborts with the following error:
object stream 21 (object 31 0, file position 1601): unknown token while reading 
object (nullnullnullnull)

All with context beta 2011.05.01 and luatex r4233

Can anyone confirm this? Any thoughts?

Hi Thomas, 

Thanks for your answer and your suggestion: indeed version 2011.11.29 works 
fine and since I have it on my Mac, there is no emergency for me to have 
simpleslides fixed.

Thanks also to Aditya and you for the nice module you have written!

Hi Otared and all,

I have just uploaded a new version of simpleslides which should work 
with the latest beta. Thankfully, Aditya has fixed the issue with the 
namespace handling which has made the module incompatible with the 
latest betas. Since Aditya and I have been taking the module into a 
somewhat different direction and added some experimental code to our 
development branch, it was a bit difficult to provide a "stable" version 
of the module, so we'd be very grateful if you (and of course others) 
could take this version for a test drive and provide feedback. We would 
love to say that this version is "guaranteed" to work with the current 
beta 2012-02-08 and then take up development from here.


All best

Hi Thomas and Aditya,

Many thanks to both of you for uploading a new version of your module.
I installed it with ConTeXt version 2012.02.08, and after doing
context --generate
context --make --all
I tried the following minimal example, which results in an error (see below)

 begin talk-test.tex
\usemodule
  [simpleslides]
  [style=Swoosh]

\setupTitle
  [title={Testing SimpleSlides},
   author={A.U. Thor},
   date={\currentdate}]

\starttext

\placeTitle

%\stoptext % the title page is typeset correctly

\SlideTitle{First slide}

This module is written by Thomas and Aditya.

\stoptext
 end talk-test.tex

The first page (the title page) is typeset correctly if one uncomment the first 
« %\stoptext » in the above lines (well, it is not anymore midaligned, but this 
must be something which can be changed).
However as soon as there is \SlideTitle{First slide}, there is an error 
message, as follows:

[NTG-context] simpleslides help needed

[Pavneet Arora]

Hello all,

I am here at TUG 2012 updating the presentation that I am to give in the 
morning.

I have had a couple of lingering questions regarding simpleslides that I
thought I would put out there.  They are not show stoppers, and I have
lived with them in my other presentations.  It is just that with my
brain on TeX (and ConTeXt) for the past few days, I thought that I would
try to resolve them once and for all.

1.  Fonts

I would like to specify separate mainfont and bodyfont using the
simplefonts module (or some other consistent mechanism).

I have read the thread from:

http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/056495.html

and have tried to split up Wolfgang's suggestion into the two parts.  I
have tried:

\usemodule[simplefonts][size=18pt]
\setmainfont[grandesignneueserif]

\setupbodyfont[dejavuserif]

which gets me the title font, but not the body font.

The other approach:

\definetypeface[mainface][rm][serif][DejaVu Serif][default]
\definetypeface[mainface][ss][sans][DejaVu Sans][default]
\definetypeface[mainface][tt][mono][Inconsolata][default]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]

also doesn't seem to work at all.  I get what I believe to be Latin
Modern Sans across the board.

I have resorted to using one of the default fonts via the module switch
for now, but would like to customize the font selection to my taste.

2.  Margins

I have the following slide, where only the right margin is affected.  I
have tried variations on backspace, width and margin but haven't gotten
the left margin to move.





\definelayout[quotation][leftmargin=1.5in,rightmargin=1.5in]

\SlideTitle{An exception: Lotus Improv, an exceptional spreadsheet}
\blank
\setuplayout[quotation]
\quotation{Pito Salas, a developer at ATG, decided to attack this problem. 
After a few months of studying existing real-world examples, it became clear 
that the data, views of that data, and the formulas that acted on that data were 
very separate concepts. Yet in every case, the existing spreadsheet programs 
required the user to type all of these items into the same (typically single) 
sheet's cells.}

\par
\setuplayout[reset]
\startalignment[flushright]
\blank[2*big]
{\em Source:  Wikipedia:Lotus Improv}



I am sure that it is something simple that I am missing here, but any
guidance would be most appreciated.

Many thanks.

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides bug?

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Maybe this is my fault. The simpleslides module works just fine these days and I 
"accidentally" updated the ConTeXt to the latest version:

context --version

mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.60
mtx-context |
mtx-context | main context file: 
/opt/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
mtx-context | current version: 2013.02.13 18:06

and this small piece of code failed to compile:

\usemodule[simpleslides][style=BigNumber]
\starttext
\SlideTitle{Test}
test
\stoptext



This must be a consequence of the new MP instance code. I can reproduce 
the error, but I can't isolate it. I think the lines


metapost> initializing instance 'metafun' using format 'metafun'
metapost> loading 'metafun': 
/opt/context/tex/texmf-context/metapost/context/base/metafun.mpiv, using 
method: default

metapost> initializing number mode "scaled"

point to the source of the error, but I don't know where to look.

Thanks for the tip. After I've committed the lines with Field[Text][Text]
in simpleslides-s-BigNumber.tex, it could compile successfully. I think
this is a metafun bug?

Make sure that you run the latest beta. Indeed there has been a change 
to these Page related areas because in a recent mp there were several 
issues (most related to memory leaks), so I made a less demanding 
implementation. In the meantime Taco has fixed a lot of mp issues so 
upcoming luatex/mplib are okay (performance and memory wise). It all 
relates to mp now having scaled and double mode.


(Alan is testing the mp double mechanisms.)

Of course there can be other issues,

Hi,

no, there is not yet code for this. I usually do it "by hand," but if  
this is something you need/use often, it would be relatively easy to  
provide a macro for it.

Can you elaborate? Do you want the same images to appear in all slides in

multiple images on a single page, say two images side by side?

With simpleslides, you will need to create your own "style module". 
Currently, there is no documentation for it, but here is the gist of 
creating your own style.


Simpleslides provides four overlays, simpleslides:background:horizontal,
simpleslides:background:vertical, simpleslides:background:title, 
simpleslides:background:ornament.


The title background is placed on the title page, the horizontal and 
ornamanet backgrounds are placed on all pages other than 
\IncludePicture[vertical] where the vertical and ornamenet backgrounds are 
placed.


If you to place a logo at a specific position, use

\startuseMPgraphic{simpleslides:MP:ornament}
StartPage ;
metapost code to draw/place logo at a particular location
StopPage ;
\stopuseMPgraphic

and then

\defineoverlay
  [simpleslides:background:ornament]
  [\useMPgraphic{simpleslides:MP:ornament}]

[NTG-context] SimpleSlides and Visual counters

Hi all, in particular Aditya M. and Thomas A.S.,

It seems that the visual counter in  SimpleSlides module (the version I have

Is the issue is known ? If so, is there a new version of SimpleSlides in which 
the issue has been fixed ?

[NTG-context] simpleslides module for LMTX

I took over maintenance for the simpleslides module and fixed most 
problems with LMTX.


You can download it here:
https://codeberg.org/fiee/context-simpleslides/archive/v2022.07.13.zip

I’ll also publish it on modules.contextgarden.net and CTAN ASAP.


BTW I left Github for political reasons, you can also find my other

Hi,

what fails is the shadow for the highlight. Aditya wrote 
this code, so please curse him :-) I must admit I don't 
really understand what he did there. As a workaround (or 
solution?): line 835 of simpleslides-s-default.tex:

   withcolor transparent ("normal",
replace this with
   withcolor transparent (1,

We'll upload a new version when we've found out why this

Does the problem appear if you use do not use simpleslides? If not, does 
it appear if you use style=default? This will help narrowing down the 
cause.

I've tried a "Hello world" file and also a non-simpleslides presentation tex 
file, all of them work.

So it seems it's simpleslides and yeah, you where right, it's the styles.
I'm using "Split" for my presentation and as for the minimal I've provided 
BigNumber, both fail at some point.
Using style=default, does not have this problem with qpdf.

I'm still trying out different styles and different slide content ...

Hmm, well, I can reproduce this on my presentation even with style=default ...

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides + combinepages != qpdf

[Reviczky, Adam]

Right, I have a feeling that this is MetaPost related, hence the random 
problems with different styles.

I can reproduce this now without simpleslides too, using only metapost.

Here's a minimal example:

Get logo_ignite.mp from: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=VqvcWniu

% slides.tex
\startreusableMPgraphic{ignite}
  input logo_ignite;
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\starttext
\reuseMPgraphic{ignite}
\stoptext

%handout.tex
\setuppapersize
  [A4][A4] % or [A4,landscape][A4,landscape]
\setuplayout
  [header=0pt,footer=1cm,backspace=1cm,topspace=1cm,width=middle,height=middle]
\setupfootertexts
  [presentation---\currentdate\space---\space\pagenumber]
\starttext
  \combinepages[slides][nx=2,ny=3,frame=on]
\stoptext

context slides.tex && context handout.tex && qpdf --linearize handout.pdf 
out.pdf

results in:
object stream 21 (object 31 0, file position 1547): unknown token while reading 
object (nullnullnullnull)

seems to be a bug in luatex beta-0.71.0-2011050213 (rev 4233).
Checking...

found it: There were 4 null objects in an ObjStm in handout.pdf, stored
now compress: "nullnullnullnull" (not yet so in 0.70.x). Each null
object has a correct pointer to its begin (the 'n'), so one should
suppose that an object ends at the character ('l') just before the start
('n') of the next null object. Like in the TeX string pool.

But qpdf gives an error about a "nullnullnullnull" object (fully
ignoring the start of the 2nd null object!), and also Adobe Reader 9
quits with an error. Interestingly xpdf displays the file handout.pdf
without any problem. The problem is fixed by adding a space at to the
end of each object within an ObjStm, so there is now "null null null
null", see SVN 4242. No comment in the PDF Ref. on this. Looks like a
flaw in qpdf and the Reader?

the PNG_FP_1 i have added recently, it's defined in png.h. Must be some
configure problem, maybe system png.h is used instead of the one coming
with the libpng within luatex. i don't have the problem here. Sorry,
needs investigation...

I was indeed using the system's libpng, my bad.
Strange though, that this comes out just now.

Anyhow, thanks.

[NTG-context] Simpleslides module is broken?!

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

Hi,

Please, help me a.s.a.p with Simpleslides module. I have a project 
sucessfully compiled a year and a half ago, and now it is broken.


Reduced script of my presentation:

\usemodule[simpleslides]

Problems observed when compiled today (I use the latest beta with 
--extra option):


* No Russian (Ukrainian) letters at all, only numbers and punctuation signs.
* The background image on the first page (the plane) is not fit to the 
page, but leaves blank stripes.


Don't know where to fix, please help me -- my boss expects updated 
presentation tomorrow!

I suggest to look into the manual for the simple slides module how to change 
fonts
because the module has some control which font is used.

You can’t use a customized layout to change the margins of a part of the page 
only,
use the quotation environment or put the quotation in a narrower environment.

Just using (without any additional definitions):

  \setupbodyfont[dejavu,10pt]

works, as there is a type-imp-dejavu typescript.

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides help needed

[Pavneet Arora]

Hans and Wolfgang,

Thanks, as always, for the prompt replies.  Does this mean that I need to focus 
on the typescript mechanism rather than simplefonts?  Wolfgang, that was also 
the point I wanted to clarify since from my earlier reading of the manual's 
section on "Choosing on your own fonts", the example pointed to using 
typescripts. However, from the Aditya's posting I was encouraged that I could 
use (my) default method of relying on simplefonts.


One last question stemming from the Jean-Luc Dumont's article on effective 
communications:  is there a way to turn off the interaction bar in the slides. 
 I am using the simple 'Shaded' style where the interaction bars are displayed 
as small circles along the bottom.


Regards.

I have resorted to using one of the default fonts via the module switch
for now, but would like to customize the font selection to my taste.


Just using (without any additional definitions):

   \setupbodyfont[dejavu,10pt]

works, as there is a type-imp-dejavu typescript.

it depends ... some fonts (those that ship with the distribution) have a 
typescript but for others (fonts that come with the os or that you buy) 
simplefonts is a better choice

In principle both should work with simpleslides module though I never 
tested it with simplefonts.

ConTeXt comes with typescripts for lot of the commonly used fonts. 
Earlier, you had to use


\usetypescript[dejavu]
\setupbodyfont[dejavu]

to use an existing typescript. Since a year or more now, the first line is 
not needed. You can just use


\setupbodyfont[dejavu]

and context will run \usetypescript[...] if a typescript is not already 
loaded.


One last question stemming from the Jean-Luc Dumont's article on effective 
communications:  is there a way to turn off the interaction bar in the 
slides. I am using the simple 'Shaded' style where the interaction bars are 
displayed as small circles along the bottom.


The simpleslides module is not designed for configurability. Sorry. The 
best solution is to copy the Shaded style to another file and remove the 
code for the bottom bar.


Thomas and I were working on a more extensible version of simpleslides, 
but haven't had the time to finish it.

Hello all,

I am here at TUG 2012 updating the presentation that I am to give in the

I have had a couple of lingering questions regarding simpleslides that I
thought I would put out there.  They are not show stoppers, and I have
lived with them in my other presentations.  It is just that with my
brain on TeX (and ConTeXt) for the past few days, I thought that I would
try to resolve them once and for all.

1.  Fonts

I would like to specify separate mainfont and bodyfont using the
simplefonts module (or some other consistent mechanism).

I have read the thread from:

http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/056495.html

and have tried to split up Wolfgang's suggestion into the two parts.  I
have tried:

\usemodule[simplefonts][size=18pt]
\setmainfont[grandesignneueserif]

\setupbodyfont[dejavuserif]


With simplefonts, you do not need \setupbodyfont! The following example 
works fine on my old installation (2012.06.08)


\usemodule[simpleslides][style=Shaded]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=\NormalSize]

\setmainfont[DejaVu Serif]

\setupTitle
  [title={Presentation Title},
   author={Author},
   date={Date / Occasion}]

\starttext

\placeTitle

\SlideTitle{Test Slide}

\input knuth

Use

   [style={ any font command }]

The default value of style is \switchtobodyfont[\SlideTitleSize]. The 
easiest way to switch fonts is to use \definefont or, if you are using the 
simplefonts module, \definesimplefont. For example:


\usemodule[simpleslides]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=\NormalSize]

\definesimplefont[SlideTitleFont][Dejavu Sans][size=\SlideTitleSize]

\setupSlideTitle[style=\SlideTitleFont]

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides help needed

[Pavneet Arora]

Dear Wolfgang,

I have tried what I believe to be the two approaches you suggested for 
controlling the margins of a quotation:


1.  Using the switches offered via \setupdelimitedtext in the \setupquotation 
command:


\setupquotation[leftmargin=1.5in]
\quotation{Pito Salas, a developer at ATG, decided to attack this problem. 
After a few months of studying existing real-world examples, it became clear 
that the data, views of that data, and the formulas that acted on that data were 
very separate concepts. Yet in every case, the existing spreadsheet programs 
required the user to type all of these items into the same (typically single) 
sheet's cells.}


The result in this case is that neither margin is affected with any combination 
of leftmargin= and rightmargin=, either alone or in combination.


2.  Creating an environment file env-myquotation.tex, which has as its contents:

\startenvironment myquotation
\setuplayout[leftmargin=1.5in,backspace=1.5in,rightmargin=1.5in]
\stopenvironment

...and then the slide:

\SlideTitle{An exception: Lotus Improv, an exceptional spreadsheet}
\blank
%\setupquotation[leftmargin=1.5in]
{\environment env-myquotation.tex
\quotation{Pito Salas, a developer at ATG, decided to attack this problem. 
After a few months of studying existing real-world examples, it became clear 
that the data, views of that data, and the formulas that acted on that data were 
very separate concepts. Yet in every case, the existing spreadsheet programs 
required the user to type all of these items into the same (typically single) 
sheet's cells.}

}
\par
\startalignment[flushright]
\blank[2*big]
{\em Source:  Wikipedia/Lotus Improv}
\stopalignment

In this case, the margins seem to work for the quotation, but, unfortunately, 
the title is also shifted by the leftmargin (but not the right margin as title 
width appears to remain the same; this title is longer than a single line), and 
the credit which I did not need brought in was also shifted in to the right 
margin of the environment.


So am I limited in my control over margins within a slide do you think?  Or is 
there another approach?


Thanks.

2.  Margins

I have the following slide, where only the right margin is affected.  I
have tried variations on backspace, width and margin but haven't gotten
the left margin to move.





\definelayout[quotation][leftmargin=1.5in,rightmargin=1.5in]

\SlideTitle{An exception: Lotus Improv, an exceptional spreadsheet}
\blank
\setuplayout[quotation]
\quotation{Pito Salas, a developer at ATG, decided to attack this problem.

\par
\setuplayout[reset]
\startalignment[flushright]
\blank[2*big]
{\em Source:  Wikipedia:Lotus Improv}



I am sure that it is something simple that I am missing here, but any
guidance would be most appreciated.


You can’t use a customized layout to change the margins of a part of the page 
only,
use the quotation environment or put the quotation in a narrower environment.

You’re doing to wrong, below you can see two different ways to have a quotation 
with margins. The first method uses the quotation environment where you can 
control the margin with the leftmargin and “rightmargin keys, the second method 
uses the quotation command which is put in a narrower environment to create the 
margins/offset.

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides help needed

[Pavneet Arora]

Ah, I got it now!

\quotation is quite different from \{start|stop}quotation.  I was attempting to 
affect the changes using just \quotation{}, which has no (or in my case 
asymmetrical and strange) effects on the margins, at least within simpleslides.


Now, I don't know whether there should be a difference in behaviour, but there 
definitely is.  When I simply integrated your \setupdelimitedtext and 
\{start|stop}narrower into my existing slide presentation, there was no change. 
 As I kept reducing the presentation there still was no change in behaviour 
until the only thing staring up at me was \quotation{}.


Glad I chased this down even though it might have been painful for others to 
read of my bumbling about.  It gives me another core piece for doing my 
presentations.


Cheers.

This is deliberate: \quotation is for inline quotations, while
\startquotation is for block quotations. Compare \math and \startmath.

I completely understand that people have gotten into a habit of not
looking up commands on the wiki; there was So Much Blankness on the
command pages, so why bother? By now, though, we have reached the
stage that looking up a basic command, at least, has a good chance of
success. So perhaps people could slowly start looking at the wiki
command reference again? The answer to quotation/startquotation, at
least, was sitting right there. :-)

Yes, indeed the information is there.  What makes the wiki sometime impenetrable 
is that doing a search, even a Google search, with keyword based or topic based 
queries rather than command based queries leads to varying results.  You know 
what you want to do; you just don't know which commands will lead you to the result.


Also just to clarify, as is my habit, I did search the wiki, and in this case I 
had even looked repeatedly at the hints.  I just didn't catch the distinction in 
my own coding.


I guess the trick is to know what commands one should hone in on ;).

Regards.

After looking at your input, this is expected. The argument to
'size' is a dimension, so it should be followed by 'pt':

  \usemodule[simpleslides][style=BigNumber,font=Helvetica,size=24pt]

Hmm, I get proper output with the test document you sent, and I'm  
using the same version you are. Just to be safe, could you run these  
commands


1. rm ~/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/*

2. luatools --generate

3. context --make

4. then rm all essai.tu* files and process essai.tex again with mkiv:

5. context essai

Sorry you're having so much trouble, as you may have seen, mkiv is  
having a particularly busy time right now; things will probably calm  
down during the next days.

Simpleslides comes with a test script. Try the following

  mkdir styles
  mtxrun --script simpleslides --styles=BigNumber --engine=context

This will create BigNumber-blue.pdf and BigNumber-red.pdf in the styles 
directory. Are these files correct?

Vyatcheslav



The cleanest way would be to write your own "submodule." It's easy;  
maybe just use one of the existing simpleslides-s-XXX.tex files and  
modify it; replace the lines


\defineoverlay
  [simpleslides:background:horizontal]
  [\useMPgraphic{simpleslides:MP:horizontal}]

with

\defineoverlay
  [simpleslides:background:horizontal]
  [{\externalfigure[][width=...]}]

Last semester, for the presentations in my class, I had defined a  
macro that would randomly pick one out of 25 pictures for every slide.  
I can send you the code if you want.

[NTG-context] simpleslides gives 'input stack overflow'

Hi,

With the latest luatex change from

(and MKIV 2021-05-09 17:14:00) I get an input stack overflow:

MWE from the documentation:
\usemodule[simpleslides][style=Boxed]

authors},date={Date of presentation}]
\starttext
\placeTitle
\SlideTitle{The first slide}
Write whatever you want.
\SlideTitle{The second slide}
Continue writing.
\stoptext

Does that mean the simpleslides module has some recursion problems?
I have tried a couple of themes but getting the same error.

I haven't looked at simpleslides in over a decade! The module did use some 
low-level macros, which are unlikely to work with LMTX without change. 

It could also be a bug with visualcounter module. I haven't tested in with LMTX 
(I still use MkIV for most of my presentations). If you can post a minimal 
example, I could take a look.

Thanks,

Re: [NTG-context] SimpleSlides and Visual counters

[Otared Kavian via ntg-context]

Hi Aditya,

Thank you for your attention and your kind reply.

I am sending a setup file with an example of presentation, which shows the 
issue with LMTX while with mkiv the result is fine.
Actually as you can see in the setup file, I have slightly modified the visula 
counter in order for it to be interactive (clicking in the center of the visula 
counter gives a jump to the previous location…).

Best regards: Otared

Re: [NTG-context] SimpleSlides and Visual counters

[Otared Kavian via ntg-context]

Hi Aditya,

Some time ago I reported an issue with LMTX regarding your visual counter (at 
least the version used in the simpleslides module).
Now I think I have found where the issue comes from: it is due to the fact that 
somehow the conditional

if PageNumber > 2 :

[some code]

fi ;

is not treated correctly, and if one removes the conditional while keeping only

I am sending you the TeX file where you can see that if lines 17 and 46 are 
uncommented then the visual counter does not show up.

Hi Otared,

I'm not Aditya, but I've encountered the same problem within 
simpleslides. Can you replace PageNumber with RealPageNumber and see 
whether this solves your problem?

Re: [NTG-context] SimpleSlides and Visual counters

[Otared Kavian via ntg-context]

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your attention. Indeed I could have asked you, but since Aditya 
answered my previous message I continued asking him…

Anyway, you are correct: replacing PageNumber with RealPageNumber everywhere, 
the visual counter is shown correctly…

For the sake of the mail archives, in case someone else encounters the issue, I 
add the example below.

Many thanks for help !

[NTG-context] Simpleslides presentation: list of topics

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Wolfgang and Aditya,

Is it possible to have a list of topics on a page when one uses the

For instance when using the swoosh model, as in the following example, and then 
navigate to each topic with a link?

\setupTitle
  [ title={Title of the presentation},

\SlideTitle {Content of today’s talk}

Here we want a list of the topics, with a link to that topic…

\SlideTitle {First topic}
This is our first topic

\SlideTitle {Second topic}
This is our second topic

Problems observed when compiled today (I use the latest beta with --extra 
option):


* No Russian (Ukrainian) letters at all, only numbers and punctuation signs.


No idea about the fonts. I do not know whether the Gothic font contains 
Russian letters or not. You can try to use your own typescript using fonts 
that work with Russian. See pg 27 of the manual.


* The background image on the first page (the plane) is not fit to the page, 
but leaves blank stripes.


I do not have the figure, so I cannot test this. But I do get a complete 
gray box saying that the figure is missing. (Tested using MkIV)

Older versions of the TeX Gyre fonts had cyrillic but the glyphs where removed 
from the fonts.

But in my output the font is smaller (I need it bigger), and the image

Then why don't you follow the advice of the manual and set the font size 
to \NormalSize?


\usemodule[simplefonts][size=\NormalSize]


and the image still does not 'fit'.


That is because the image is 1280x1024 (aspect ratio of 1.25 or 5:4) while 
the paper size has an aspect ratio of 4:3.


If you do not mind the distortion, use

\externalfigure[...][width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides ubuntu jaunty (9.04)

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

On May 6, 2009, at 6:59 PM, Amaël Broustet wrote:


Dear list members,
I'm a new user of conTeXt and was interested in the simpleslides  
module.


It looks great and partially works but most graphical stuffs don't
work :
I've only the text using Mark IV, and get some of the graphical  
effects

with Mark II  (but not all) (I've attached pdf output and logs).

I use a freshly installed ubuntu 9.04



It seems you are using the texlive install from ubuntu. Normally, I  
would advise installing the minimals (see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals 
 ), but the ConTeXt beta is a bit unstable these days. I have run  
your essai.tex here and get proper output both in mkii and mkiv.



I've installed the module (in my ~/texmf).
I've added in /etc/environment the variable
TEXMFCNF=/usr/share/texmf/web2c in order for luatools and MarkIV to
work. cf
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation#Postscript:_Mark_IV
(the exemple file works)

Yes, your logs indicate that the module and its submodules are found,  
so the installation is correct.



versions :
$ texexec --lua -v
TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD

$ luatools -v
LuaTools | version 1.2.0 - 2006+ - PRAGMA ADE / CONTEXT

$ luatex -v
This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.28.0-2009041620


I hope that you have some hints on what I might have wrong,
In mark IV, it looks like I have a version problem for metafun, but  
I'm

not sure and don't now how to get the version number.

Best regards
Amaël Broustet


In order to get the version number, simply look at the log files. It  
says in the first few lines:


ConTeXt  ver: 2008.05.21 15:21 MKII  fmt: 2009.4.29  int: english/ 
english


and

ConTeXt  ver: 2008.05.21 15:21 MKIV  fmt: 2009.5.5  int: english/english

So your ConTeXt version is almost a year old. For mkiv, which is  
moving very fast, this means the stone age, and I don't think anybody  
will be able or willing to help you with such an old version. The  
problem in the mkiv log is that your metafun version is not able to  
process the background (after l. 80), that's why you don't get any

so you should try and install the minimals. It's no problem having  
them in addition to your system TeX installation, they shouldn't  
interfere.

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides with minimals : OK

Merci 
Than you very much, it works !
I don't know why.
Just a question : what is the difference between "texexec --lua" and

Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides gives 'input stack overflow'

[Adam Reviczky]

Hi,

Looks like it is a problem with "StartPage" and "StopPage" in metapost.

I get the same error with any MP graphic using those commands.

More minimal example (without simpleslides) as per the wiki:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Cover_Pages

colors  > 'cmyk' color space is supported
fonts   > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage)

input stack overflow

Commenting out "StartPage" and "StopPage" compiles.

Hi Otared,

I'm neither Wolfgang nor Aditya, but the one who is currently in charge 
of the module (Aditya did not have time to do more work on it). The 
answer is: there are a few styles that have a topic list integrated, 
(such as FuzzyTopic), but not swoosh (and I don't see where such a list 
would be an esthetically pleasing fit on this design). As for 
interactive links: the simpleslides module doesn't have them since I 
have never understood who would use them (the way I use presentations is 
always linear; if you want to go back to a particular slide, you may 
want to look at a tool such as impressive). If somebody makes a 
convincing case, I might implement it.


Sorry for the negative answer, best wishes

Re: [NTG-context] Simpleslides presentation: list of topics

[Otared Kavian]

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

I use my unreleased overview module to place a visual ToC at the end:
https://randomdeterminism.wordpress.com/2014/01/01/announcing-the-overview-module/

There have been some changes in the module since that blog post; the most 
up-to-date code is at github: 
https://github.com/adityam/context-overviewpage


I use this in two ways: Either in the conclusions as in the 2nd last slide 
at 
http://www.ece.mcgill.ca/~amahaj1/projects/real-time/slides/2016-wiopt.pdf


or as a visual ToC as in the last slide at
http://www.ece.mcgill.ca/~amahaj1/talks/rutgers-2015.pdf

There is very little documentation, but if you are interested I can write 
some notes on how to use the module.

Re: [NTG-context] Simpleslides presentation: list of topics

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Aditya and Thomas,

Thanks to both of your for your attention to my bizarre request.
Actually it is quite easy to have a page a list of the topics on a page, as one 
can see in the following example (please see below). Tne only thing I am 
lacking write now, is a trick to go the list of topics from any page, without 
adding manually a link to that page on each slide.

Another question: I am not at all familiar with the code you have written for 
the nice visual counter used in simpleslides module. Would it be possible to 
add interactivity to each portion of that visual counter, in such that upon 
clicking on that portion one jumps to the corresponding page?

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

Not really. The visual counter code is simply using \rawcountervalue and 
\lastcountervalue to draw a metapost graphic. I don't know of an easy way 
to add a link to "page where this counter has value n". Nor do I know how 
to add interaction to a metapost image.


Hans had written some visual progressbars that use \vrule and variants 
(and only work for pagenumber counter), that can jump to a specific page 
when you click on them.

Re: [NTG-context] Simpleslides presentation: list of topics

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Thomas,

A topic for me is just the title of a section (or chapter): in a presentation 
it happens that one has a few of them, and in my case certainly less than ten. 
It is useful to be able to go back to the list of these topics and jump to one 
of them. But you are right, usually a presentation is in principle linear.

Actually what I wanted to do was just to put a list of my topics on one page 
(and this can be done easily), and then what is lacking at the moment is a link 
to jump to that page from any other slide.
For the latter aspect, I think I can cook up a (non optimal) solution for now.

I understand that what I am looking for, may not be justified in most cases, 
and thus I do not at all suggest that you should modify anything in the 
simpleslides module… The idea of your module is to remain simple, and simple is 
beautiful!


Thanks again for your attention and your remarks.
Best regards: OK

Re: [NTG-context] Simpleslides presentation: list of topics

[Aditya Mahajan]

Actually what I wanted to do was just to put a list of my topics on one 
page (and this can be done easily), and then what is lacking at the 
moment is a link to jump to that page from any other slide.


I simply put the overview page (it could be the TOC in your case) on the 
last page. Then press "End" to jump to it. No hyperlinks required :-)

Incidentally, context system itself is running OK.

Am I missing something? Or, doing something silly?


For 'context' (which is context mark iv, as apposed to texexec which
is context mark ii) you have to run luatools --generate instead of
mktexlsr.

Best wishes,

Which version of context does tetex use? You can check with

ctxtools --contextversion

At first glance it seems that you are using too old a version of context, 
one that does not understand passing of options to \usemodule.
