This package allows to create free form slides with blocks placed on a grid. The blocks can be filled with text, equations, figures etc. This allows more flexible slides similar compared to LaTeX beamer. Sequential unconvering of elements is supported. A compiler script is provided which compiles each slide separately, avoiding long compile times this way.
See the file example.tex and example.pdf. Each slide is compiled separately using compile.pl example.tex.
This package provides only a handful of commands, which allow to create slides and with blocks at fixed positions.
\begin{slide}{Slide title}
Slide content
\end{slide}
\begin{rawslide}
Raw slide without title and style
\end{rawslide}
\begin{style}
Define style which underlies all slides.
Best used together with \bg{filename}!
\end{style}
\begin{style}
\bg{figure-filename}
\end{style}The slide is divided in a 32x24 grid.
\bg{figure-filename}
\txt(x,y){Text content}
\block(x,y,w){Arbitrary content}
\fig(x,y,w){figure-filename}
\eq(x,y){a^2 + b^2 = c^2}Each slide can be split in multiple steps by defining blocks with <n-m> annotations.
\txt<1->(x,y){On slide step 1 to n}
\block<2>(x,y,w){Only on step 2}
\only<2-3>{
\block(x,y){Block content}
}\author{Author} defines \theauthor
\title{Presentation Title} defines \thetitle
\date{Date} defines \thedate
\institute{Institute} defines \theinstitute
\theheadline defined by slide title
\theslide defined by slide numberSee example.tex for usage.
