100 LyX and FoilTeX combine to provide a powerful presentation package for creating
102 \begin_inset Quotes eld
106 \begin_inset Quotes erd
109 also known as slides and overhead transparencies.
112 \begin_layout Foilhead
116 \begin_layout Standard
120 \begin_layout Plain Layout
132 \begin_layout Standard
133 A Foilhead starts a new foil.
138 version is also provided that reduces the separation between the Foilhead
139 and the body of the foil.
140 Almost all the environments found in other classes are also supported.
143 \begin_layout Itemize
147 \begin_layout Plain Layout
156 The new Itemize Bullet Selection popup
160 \begin_layout Itemize
161 is tailor-made for use with the foils class
165 \begin_layout Itemize
166 allowing you to select the bullet used
170 \begin_layout Itemize
171 at each of the four levels of the Itemize environment
177 \begin_layout Itemize
178 NOTE: to get the full capabilities of the Itemize Bullet Selection popup
179 read the Special Tools manual and the ItemizeBullets.lyx file included with
183 \begin_layout Itemize
184 NOTE 2: To get your list spacing small like this use the FoilTeX command:
191 set as TeX at the start of the first item.
194 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
195 This is a ShortFoilhead
198 \begin_layout Standard
202 \begin_layout Plain Layout
214 \begin_layout Standard
215 The foils class has been extended to provide two additional bullet-lists.
216 These lists are namely:
219 \begin_layout TickList
223 \begin_layout Standard
227 \begin_layout CrossList
231 \begin_layout Standard
232 These two lists were added because the listing of do's and don'ts or good
233 and bad are relatively common in foils.
234 Providing a dedicated paragraph style for these occasions should allow
235 faster entry and simplify interaction with LyX.
238 \begin_layout Rotatefoilhead
242 \begin_layout Standard
248 \begin_layout Itemize
249 Create landscape foils by using Rotatefoilhead
252 \begin_layout Itemize
253 Note that if you are viewing this with xdvi the page will appear to overrun
254 the page dimensions because it xdvi doesn't rotate the text
257 \begin_layout Itemize
258 If you view this document using ghostview or something similar then the
259 page should appear rotated.
260 If not then you probably don't have the necessary dvips driver.
263 \begin_layout Definition*
264 There are also several environments specially designed for presenting Theorems,
265 Lemmas, Corollaries, Propositions, Proofs and Definitions.
266 These are available as numbered or unnumbered environments.
269 \begin_layout ShortRotatefoilhead
273 \begin_layout Standard
277 \begin_layout Plain Layout
289 \begin_layout Itemize
290 Again the short version reduces the space below the heading
293 \begin_layout Itemize
294 Another way to control the amount of separation is to adjust the length
296 This will affect both the normal and short versions of foilhead and rotatefoilh
299 \begin_inset Newline newline
308 foilheadskip}{-0.5in}
311 \begin_inset Newline newline
314 will reduce the spacing by 0.5 inches.
315 Other units include mm (millimeters) and pt (points).
318 \begin_layout Itemize
323 versions of the foilheads reduce the separation by 0.5 inches (approximately
327 \begin_layout ShortFoilhead
331 \begin_layout Standard
335 \begin_layout Plain Layout
348 Several consecutive paragraphs of type
372 or the starred versions of these are part of the same environment.
376 As you can see, we are still in the same lemma.
379 \begin_layout Standard
383 \begin_layout Plain Layout
394 To force this second Lemma straight after the first it's necessary to add
395 some dividing text or as I've done in this case separate the two by inserting
400 inset that simply contains a
401 \begin_inset Quotes eld
405 \begin_inset Quotes erd
409 This is simply a comment character in LaTeX but the insertion of the LaTeX
410 paragraph is sufficient to fool LyX into correctly handling the multiple
415 NOTE: You only have this problem with multiple paragraphs of the same type
420 with different types such as a Proof followed by a Theorem.

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

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

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