Re: Simplest slides

["Guilherme P. de Freitas" <guilherme@gpfreitas.com>]

Hi Thomas,

I did take a look at simple slides, and in their documentation, there
is no "plain" background. All the backgrounds have some shape/color to
it. That may be possible, but I couldn't tell just by spending 3-4 min
skimming the documentation. As it is something very natural to want (a
plain background), I assumed that it was either not supported without
a hack, or too hard to figure out.

Best,

Guilherme
