96 \begin_layout Abstract
98 LyX and FoilTeX combine to provide a powerful presentation package for creating
100 \begin_inset Quotes eld
104 \begin_inset Quotes erd
107 also known as slides and overhead transparencies.
110 \begin_layout Foilhead
115 \begin_layout Standard
121 \begin_layout Standard
132 \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
150 \begin_layout Standard
158 The new Itemize Bullet Selection popup
162 \begin_layout Itemize
164 is tailor-made for use with the foils class
168 \begin_layout Itemize
170 allowing you to select the bullet used
174 \begin_layout Itemize
176 at each of the four levels of the Itemize environment
181 \begin_layout Itemize
183 NOTE: to get the full capabilities of the Itemize Bullet Selection popup
184 read the Special Tools manual and the ItemizeBullets.lyx file included with
188 \begin_layout Itemize
190 NOTE 2: To get your list spacing small like this use the FoilTeX command:
197 set as TeX at the start of the first item.
200 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
202 This is a ShortFoilhead
205 \begin_layout Standard
211 \begin_layout Standard
222 \begin_layout Standard
224 The foils class has been extended to provide two additional bullet-lists.
225 These lists are namely:
228 \begin_layout TickList
233 \begin_layout Standard
238 \begin_layout CrossList
243 \begin_layout Standard
245 These two lists were added because the listing of do's and don'ts or good
246 and bad are relatively common in foils.
247 Providing a dedicated paragraph style for these occasions should allow
248 faster entry and simplify interaction with LyX.
251 \begin_layout Rotatefoilhead
256 \begin_layout Standard
263 \begin_layout Itemize
265 Create landscape foils by using Rotatefoilhead
268 \begin_layout Itemize
270 Note that if you are viewing this with xdvi the page will appear to overrun
271 the page dimensions because it xdvi doesn't rotate the text
274 \begin_layout Itemize
276 If you view this document using ghostview or something similar then the
277 page should appear rotated.
278 If not then you probably don't have the necessary dvips driver.
281 \begin_layout Definition*
283 There are also several environments specially designed for presenting Theorems,
284 Lemmas, Corollaries, Propositions, Proofs and Definitions.
285 These are available as numbered or unnumbered environments.
288 \begin_layout ShortRotatefoilhead
293 \begin_layout Standard
299 \begin_layout Standard
310 \begin_layout Itemize
312 Again the short version reduces the space below the heading
315 \begin_layout Itemize
317 Another way to control the amount of separation is to adjust the length
319 This will affect both the normal and short versions of foilhead and rotatefoilh
329 foilheadskip}{-0.5in}
333 will reduce the spacing by 0.5 inches.
334 Other units include mm (millimeters) and pt (points).
337 \begin_layout Itemize
343 versions of the foilheads reduce the separation by 0.5 inches (approximately
347 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
352 \begin_layout Standard
358 \begin_layout Standard
371 Several consecutive paragraphs of type
395 or the starred versions of these are part of the same environment.
400 As you can see, we are still in the same lemma.
403 \begin_layout Standard
409 \begin_layout Standard
420 To force this second Lemma straight after the first it's necessary to add
421 some dividing text or as I've done in this case separate the two by inserting
426 inset that simply contains a
427 \begin_inset Quotes eld
431 \begin_inset Quotes erd
435 This is simply a comment character in LaTeX but the insertion of the LaTeX
436 paragraph is sufficient to fool LyX into correctly handling the multiple
442 NOTE: You only have this problem with multiple paragraphs of the same type
447 with different types such as a Proof followed by a Theorem.

781 FoilTeX provides some powerful header and footer capabilities
785 \begin_layout Standard
787 You can also use the standard footnotes like this one.
792 that are best set in the preamble although they may be set at any point
794 If you want to change these settings in the document the best place to
795 do so is at the very top of a foil ie.
796 straight after the foilhead.
799 \begin_layout Standard
801 The left-footer is controlled by two commands:
814 The first is meant to allow you to include a graphic logo on your foils
816 \begin_inset Quotes eld
820 \begin_inset Quotes erd
824 While the second is meant to provide a classification for the audience
829 \begin_layout Standard
831 The remaining corners are controlled by:
834 \begin_layout Standard
842 -- which defaults to page numbers

863 \begin_layout Foilhead
868 \begin_layout Standard
874 \begin_layout Standard
885 \begin_layout Standard
887 Your LaTeX distribution should include some documentation on FoilTeX.
888 There are many more features in FoilTeX than those described here.
889 For example, FoilTeX can automatically place a horizontal rule between
890 the headers and all foilheads, and between the body and the footers.
