I started using prosper about couple of weeks ago, and it is too good. However, there are lots of features which it lacks. Browsing through the forum I realised that many people want the same features I lack. So I decided to implement them myself. I just want to know where I can submit the new .cls file a sample style file (modified troispoints a little) as well as a sample .tex file using this. I have tried writing to the Prosper forum but have got no replies at all. Hence I am writing here. I am looking forward to the day, when all latex users will prefer Prosper to powerpoint. - Murali PS: New features are: *** use pdfbookmark instead to writing directly. So now the bookmarks are hierarchical. *** Multiple slide types. Now slide, partslide and titleslide are different environments (similar code). So designers can override each one seperately. \part is a wrapper around partslide environment. I use the partslide environment directly, when I need to add a picture to the slide. *** Hyperlinks... Every slide now has a hypertarget called "slide-N", "overlay-N-S","part-P", where N is the slide number, S the subslide number (for overlays) and P the part number. *** Panel You can redefine the commands \panelslide, \panelpart and \paneltitle to generate a navigation panel below the slide. some commands like \nextslidebutton,\prevpartbutton,\partstartbutton. .. are provided. So between them and the \Acrobatmenu you can do almost what you want. On the otherhand the PPRxxx.sty file should now call \PutPanel (just like \PutLogo) and define the position of the panel. Since I am a not a tex guy (only latex), I am not very good are writing complicated tex code. I have hit upon a barrier, which I am sure can resolved by all the tex gurus in this list. In the code which renders the panel, I need to decide which of the three panels to render. As of now it renders only \panelslide for all slides. This needs to be fixed. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
