98 \begin_layout Abstract
99 LyX and FoilTeX combine to provide a powerful presentation package for creating
101 \begin_inset Quotes eld
105 \begin_inset Quotes erd
108 also known as slides and overhead transparencies.
111 \begin_layout Foilhead
115 \begin_layout Standard
119 \begin_layout Plain Layout
131 \begin_layout Standard
132 A Foilhead starts a new foil.
137 version is also provided that reduces the separation between the Foilhead
138 and the body of the foil.
139 Almost all the environments found in other classes are also supported.
142 \begin_layout Itemize
146 \begin_layout Plain Layout
155 The new Itemize Bullet Selection popup
159 \begin_layout Itemize
160 is tailor-made for use with the foils class
164 \begin_layout Itemize
165 allowing you to select the bullet used
169 \begin_layout Itemize
170 at each of the four levels of the Itemize environment
176 \begin_layout Itemize
177 NOTE: to get the full capabilities of the Itemize Bullet Selection popup
178 read the Special Tools manual and the ItemizeBullets.lyx file included with
182 \begin_layout Itemize
183 NOTE 2: To get your list spacing small like this use the FoilTeX command:
190 set as TeX at the start of the first item.
193 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
194 This is a ShortFoilhead
197 \begin_layout Standard
201 \begin_layout Plain Layout
213 \begin_layout Standard
214 The foils class has been extended to provide two additional bullet-lists.
215 These lists are namely:
218 \begin_layout TickList
222 \begin_layout Standard
226 \begin_layout CrossList
230 \begin_layout Standard
231 These two lists were added because the listing of do's and don'ts or good
232 and bad are relatively common in foils.
233 Providing a dedicated paragraph style for these occasions should allow
234 faster entry and simplify interaction with LyX.
237 \begin_layout Rotatefoilhead
241 \begin_layout Standard
247 \begin_layout Itemize
248 Create landscape foils by using Rotatefoilhead
251 \begin_layout Itemize
252 Note that if you are viewing this with xdvi the page will appear to overrun
253 the page dimensions because it xdvi doesn't rotate the text
256 \begin_layout Itemize
257 If you view this document using ghostview or something similar then the
258 page should appear rotated.
259 If not then you probably don't have the necessary dvips driver.
262 \begin_layout Definition*
263 There are also several environments specially designed for presenting Theorems,
264 Lemmas, Corollaries, Propositions, Proofs and Definitions.
265 These are available as numbered or unnumbered environments.
268 \begin_layout ShortRotatefoilhead
272 \begin_layout Standard
276 \begin_layout Plain Layout
288 \begin_layout Itemize
289 Again the short version reduces the space below the heading
292 \begin_layout Itemize
293 Another way to control the amount of separation is to adjust the length
295 This will affect both the normal and short versions of foilhead and rotatefoilh
298 \begin_inset Newline newline
307 foilheadskip}{-0.5in}
310 \begin_inset Newline newline
313 will reduce the spacing by 0.5 inches.
314 Other units include mm (millimeters) and pt (points).
317 \begin_layout Itemize
322 versions of the foilheads reduce the separation by 0.5 inches (approximately
326 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
330 \begin_layout Standard
334 \begin_layout Plain Layout
347 Several consecutive paragraphs of type
371 or the starred versions of these are part of the same environment.
375 As you can see, we are still in the same lemma.
378 \begin_layout Standard
382 \begin_layout Plain Layout
393 To force this second Lemma straight after the first it's necessary to add
394 some dividing text or as I've done in this case separate the two by inserting
399 inset that simply contains a
400 \begin_inset Quotes eld
404 \begin_inset Quotes erd
408 This is simply a comment character in LaTeX but the insertion of the LaTeX
409 paragraph is sufficient to fool LyX into correctly handling the multiple
414 NOTE: You only have this problem with multiple paragraphs of the same type
419 with different types such as a Proof followed by a Theorem.

728 FoilTeX provides some powerful header and footer capabilities
732 \begin_layout Plain Layout
733 You can also use the standard footnotes like this one.
738 that are best set in the preamble although they may be set at any point
740 If you want to change these settings in the document the best place to
741 do so is at the very top of a foil ie.
742 straight after the foilhead.
745 \begin_layout Standard
746 The left-footer is controlled by two commands:
759 The first is meant to allow you to include a graphic logo on your foils
761 \begin_inset Quotes eld
765 \begin_inset Quotes erd
769 While the second is meant to provide a classification for the audience
774 \begin_layout Standard
775 The remaining corners are controlled by:

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