To give you a short description: for the moment, the page counters we have are all hard-coded into the submodules. We plan to write a submodule for these counters so they can be included with any background. This would be the moment to also include similar buttons. I must admit that I find the beamer buttons way too cluttered and would opt for something much simpler (just the three rightmost "back" "go to page" "foreward"), but of course, that's a matter of taste. Since ConTeXt has good support for such interaction, I don't think it would be too hard. > When I'm in hurry, I solve problems faster them I get solutions )) > Unfortunately, I've already dropped the project I worked on (not by > my will), so I loose any interest in it and don't try anything. > Thanks for hinting me about this delicate matter. > Sure, now I understand.

Well, for one thing, the module clearly says in its manual that this is not its aim: "The module is meant for presentations which will be shown on a digital projector. They have no interactive elements (such as buttons or hyperlinks) and no navigational tools (such as table of contents)." Hence the name "simple-slides." I have never understood what these navigation buttons are good for when I watched presentations. But of course, if users think it's a good idea, Aditya and I may consider adding them. And another thing that's on my mind: Vyatcheslav, you have been asking a ton of questions lately. You have received quite a few answers, but you have never replied (unless to ask further questions). I'm not complaining about a lack of manners, but it would be good to know if your problem has been solved, if the solutions work etc. Thomas ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
