Subject: Migrating from prosper to simpleslides in creating presentations
Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2011 08:30:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EDE18F7.3050808@waroc.com> (raw)

Hello,

I am trying to put aside doing my presentations using prosper, and
migrating to using ConTeXt+simpleslides.

I ask this knowing full well that many would consider these features as
simply adding visual noise to presentations, and normally I too eschew
them, but as I am reading Jean-Luc Doumont's book on effective
communications I am reminded that the primary purpose of presentations is
to affect change in the audience.  I am to give a presentation in a few
days to a group of designers/interior decorators, and for this audience
presentations using these features are both appropriate and often
expected.

I am looking for the equivalent of transition effects in the prosper
class---the simple Wipe transition would suffice; no need for Glitter
;).  The other feature that I would like is the incremental displaying
of a slide, i.e., the \overlays feature.  Is there an easy way to
incorporate these into a ConTeXt based presentation, even if it means
not necessarily using simpleslides?

advTHANKSance.
