100 \begin_layout Abstract
101 LyX and FoilTeX combine to provide a powerful presentation package for creating
103 \begin_inset Quotes eld
107 \begin_inset Quotes erd
110 also known as slides and overhead transparencies.
113 \begin_layout Foilhead
117 \begin_layout Standard
121 \begin_layout Plain Layout
133 \begin_layout Standard
134 A Foilhead starts a new foil.
139 version is also provided that reduces the separation between the Foilhead
140 and the body of the foil.
141 Almost all the environments found in other classes are also supported.
144 \begin_layout Itemize
148 \begin_layout Plain Layout
157 The new Itemize Bullet Selection popup
161 \begin_layout Itemize
162 is tailor-made for use with the foils class
166 \begin_layout Itemize
167 allowing you to select the bullet used
171 \begin_layout Itemize
172 at each of the four levels of the Itemize environment
178 \begin_layout Itemize
179 NOTE: to get the full capabilities of the Itemize Bullet Selection popup
180 read the Special Tools manual and the ItemizeBullets.lyx file included with
184 \begin_layout Itemize
185 NOTE 2: To get your list spacing small like this use the FoilTeX command:
192 set as TeX at the start of the first item.
195 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
196 This is a ShortFoilhead
199 \begin_layout Standard
203 \begin_layout Plain Layout
215 \begin_layout Standard
216 The foils class has been extended to provide two additional bullet-lists.
217 These lists are namely:
220 \begin_layout TickList
224 \begin_layout Standard
228 \begin_layout CrossList
232 \begin_layout Standard
233 These two lists were added because the listing of do's and don'ts or good
234 and bad are relatively common in foils.
235 Providing a dedicated paragraph style for these occasions should allow
236 faster entry and simplify interaction with LyX.
239 \begin_layout Rotatefoilhead
243 \begin_layout Standard
249 \begin_layout Itemize
250 Create landscape foils by using Rotatefoilhead
253 \begin_layout Itemize
254 Note that if you are viewing this with xdvi the page will appear to overrun
255 the page dimensions because it xdvi doesn't rotate the text
258 \begin_layout Itemize
259 If you view this document using ghostview or something similar then the
260 page should appear rotated.
261 If not then you probably don't have the necessary dvips driver.
264 \begin_layout Definition*
265 There are also several environments specially designed for presenting Theorems,
266 Lemmas, Corollaries, Propositions, Proofs and Definitions.
267 These are available as numbered or unnumbered environments.
270 \begin_layout ShortRotatefoilhead
274 \begin_layout Standard
278 \begin_layout Plain Layout
290 \begin_layout Itemize
291 Again the short version reduces the space below the heading
294 \begin_layout Itemize
295 Another way to control the amount of separation is to adjust the length
297 This will affect both the normal and short versions of foilhead and rotatefoilh
300 \begin_inset Newline newline
309 foilheadskip}{-0.5in}
312 \begin_inset Newline newline
315 will reduce the spacing by 0.5 inches.
316 Other units include mm (millimeters) and pt (points).
319 \begin_layout Itemize
324 versions of the foilheads reduce the separation by 0.5 inches (approximately
328 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
332 \begin_layout Standard
336 \begin_layout Plain Layout
349 Several consecutive paragraphs of type
373 or the starred versions of these are part of the same environment.
377 As you can see, we are still in the same lemma.
380 \begin_layout Standard
384 \begin_layout Plain Layout
395 To force this second Lemma straight after the first it's necessary to add
396 some dividing text or as I've done in this case separate the two by inserting
401 inset that simply contains a
402 \begin_inset Quotes eld
406 \begin_inset Quotes erd
410 This is simply a comment character in LaTeX but the insertion of the LaTeX
411 paragraph is sufficient to fool LyX into correctly handling the multiple
416 NOTE: You only have this problem with multiple paragraphs of the same type
421 with different types such as a Proof followed by a Theorem.

730 FoilTeX provides some powerful header and footer capabilities
734 \begin_layout Plain Layout
735 You can also use the standard footnotes like this one.
740 that are best set in the preamble although they may be set at any point
742 If you want to change these settings in the document the best place to
743 do so is at the very top of a foil ie.
744 straight after the foilhead.

748 The left-footer is controlled by two commands:
761 The first is meant to allow you to include a graphic logo on your foils

834 Your LaTeX distribution should include some documentation on FoilTeX.
835 There are many more features in FoilTeX than those described here.
836 For example, FoilTeX can automatically place a horizontal rule between
837 the headers and all foilheads, and between the body and the footers.
