Presentations:thomas feLines

Fe Lines Talk ===

I made this presentation in only a few days. Hence, not everything is coded very well. Nevertheless you might find some interesting features you can use for your presentation. If you've got questions: Just ask me! :-)

Header

<file> \documentclass[usenatbib]{beamer} % if you use the draft option (\documentclass[usenatbib,draft]{beamer}) the images % are not included. You can safe a lot of time using this option, if you do not need % to look at your figures.

\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc} \usepackage{hyperref} \usepackage{colortbl} % colored tables \usepackage{natbib} % the bibliography is in natbib style \usepackage{url} % est urls with \url{...} correctly \usepackage{amssymb} % more symbols \usepackage{amsmath} % standard math packag \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{multicol} % allows you to create multiple columns \usepackage{pstricks,pst-grad,pst-text} % pstricks ...

% set your graphics path \graphicspath{{./figs/}}

% select your favourite theme \usetheme{Frankfurt}

Definitions/Functions

<file>

% define your own colors: % especially the standard green needs to be dark \definecolor{tdgreen}{rgb}{0,0.6,0} \definecolor{tdblue} {rgb}{.114, .157, .706 } \definecolor{tdred} {rgb}{0.922, .086, .086 }

% for creating my title page, I define my font sizes \newcommand\titleFontSize{\fontsize{0.65cm}{0.6cm}\selectfont} \newcommand\authorFontSize{\fontsize{0.55cm}{0.5cm}\selectfont}

% simple commands for highlighting text in different colors \newcommand{\greentext}[1]{{\color{tdgreen}#1}} \newcommand{\redtext}[1]{{\color{tdred}#1}} \newcommand{\bluetext}[1]{{\color{tdblue}#1}}

% define my own slides: style chosen here is plain \newcommand{\tdframe}[1]{\frame[plain]{#1}}

% define a compact itemize-environment \newenvironment{itemize*}%

 {\begin{itemize}%
   \setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}%
   \setlength{\parskip}{0pt}}%
 {\end{itemize}}

% define an outlined caption with ps-tricks: text in "Caption" is surrounded by a black line. % this is useful if you use a background image, but the title/authors should still be readable \definecolor{Caption}{rgb}{0.8,0.1,0.01} \newcommand\outlineCaption[1]{\textbf{\pscharpath[linecolor=black,linewidth=.1pt, gradangle=90,fillstyle=gradient,gradbegin=Caption,gradend=Caption,gradmidpoint=1]{#1}}} </file>
