Fix some typos in the introduction.

subsubsectionstyle support

Martin Quinson — Tue, 30 Oct 2007 00:06:49 -0000

Hello,

this patch provides support for a subsubsectionstyle key to \tableofcontent tag. As section and subsection, it takes subvalues separated by /. each value can be hide, show, shaded. For this one, there is four values:
- current subsubsection
- current subsection, but other subsubsection
- current section, but other subsection
- other section

I had an issue for when all the values are provided because I seem to be unable to gobble 3 symbols to eat all the / added after the argument. I hope you'll know how to solve this and don't discard the patch for this reason.

If you like the patch, I plan to go further and provide an "highlight" action along with hide/show/shaded, and also to give ability to specify different actions for past and forthcoming elements. Of course, if you want to implement these other improvement yourself, feel free ;)

Hope you like the patch,
Mt.

A way to print transparencies in A4

Mikolaj Konarski — Thu, 21 Dec 2006 04:27:08 -0000

I couldn't find any way to print beamer transparencies in A4, until I stumbled on

http://www.hep.phys.soton.ac.uk/~jhe/resources/index.html

where they provide the following script:

#!/bin/bash

if ([ -z $1 ] || [ -z $2 ]) ; then
echo "Usage: beamer2a4 input.ps output.ps"
exit 1
fi

psnup -1 -q -m1cm -W12.8cm -H9.6cm -pa4 $1 | \ sed 's/%%BoundingBox: 0 0 363 273/%%BoundingBox: 0 0 595 842/' > $2

Is there an easier way? Anything I did according to the manual ended in BBox format and mangled printout both from PDF and PS. Anyway, this script works, so it may be useful for anyone printing transparencies, even just in case of a laptop failure...

fixes table of context with hidden subsections

Anonymous — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 21:10:41 -0000

Currently the section titles will be separated by fixed vertical space of 1.5em in case some or all subsection titles are hidden. The consequence is that the table of contents might not fit on a page in case of many sections or large fonts.

This patch removes the relevant if-construct in the file beamerbasetoc.sty and thus always inserts a \vfill, with or without visible subsection titles.

This solves the display issues for my presentation, and I cannot really understand why a fixed skip has been specified for the mentioned case in the first place. Has this been a quick'n'dirty fix for a particular presentation?

fix typos in docs

This patch fixes typos and minor errors I have found in
the Beamer user guide.

Add part sectionning to the bookmarks

Martin Quinson — Fri, 31 Dec 2004 15:49:25 -0000

Hello,

here is a simple patch to add the \part structure to
the bookmarks.

At least, I hope it's called bookmark. I'm speaking of
the table of content on the left of the document when
browsing it in xpdf or acroread.

Anyway, the patch is simple and should be self
explanationary.

Thanks for this wonderful tool,
Mt.
