Hello all,

Here a few comments, after my first attempt with the new beamer support --
excellent, needless to say...

Before that, I was using Nick's export class. But, now, I'm using yesterday's
git version.

The few things I'm tackling right now are:

- How to get a TOC with a frame title, without having to add it explicitly?

- How to get alerted text, without customizing `org-export-emphasis-alist'?
  Has this been forgotten from the commit?

- How to get "frame breaks", without modifying the resulting TeX file (by
  adding a frame option `allowframebreaks' -- similar to the `fragile'
  option)?

- How to get the TOC repeated when changing of section, with the new item
  highlighted?  See my manual essay ;-)

The last question has maybe few to do with Org. I mean: maybe, we can't have
that feature implemented in Org. Dunno.

Here follows an example to play with, and see what I'm talking about:

Just put [allowframebreaks] into the :BEAMER_envargs: property of
the node that becomes the frame.

I don't know!  Isn't this something that can be done with beamer themes?
I have no idea.

Beamer support is hacking Org quite a bit, installing hooks left
and right, so I think it can be done.  But I would need o know what  
exactly is needed/wanted....

See the line I added manually in the example Org file:

>> #+BEAMER: \frame{\frametitle{Table of Contents}\tableofcontents}

Now, we can discuss about the right title for the TOC slide:
- Table of Contents?
- Table of contents?
- Contents?
- Index?
- Plan?

Maybe that should become a customizable variable with a nice default value...

See the discussion with Eric on
http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode-mXXj517/zsQ@public.gmane.org/msg19862.html.

Currently (git version of 10 mins ago), I have nothing defined for `@':

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
org-export-latex-emphasis-alist is a variable defined in `org-latex.el'.
Its value is 
(("*" "\\textbf{%s}" nil)
 ("/" "\\emph{%s}" nil)
 ("_" "\\underline{%s}" nil)
 ("+" "\\st{%s}" nil)
 ("=" "\\verb" t)
 ("~" "\\verb" t))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Shouldn't `("@" "\\alert{%s}" nil)' be added by default?

That does work. Thanks.

However, couldn't we have that on by default on all nodes? For sure, some
people won't remark some text is cut off in the output beamer presentation,
when the option is not set.

By the way, how are we supposed to add that property in the most easiest
manner?  I never really used column view, but I have troubles when using it
here.

On the node where I want to add that property, I do:
- `C-c C-x C-c' to enter column view
- `right' (arrow) to go in the second column
- `e' to edit the property
... but I'm put in a tag selection menu... What am I doing wrong?

Maybe others have feedback on this. I'm not yet expert either in beamer...

Sure. Thanks -- once again -- for all excellent results achieved so far.

\AtBeginSection[] % Do nothing for \section*
{
  \begin{frame}<beamer>
    \frametitle{Outline}
    \tableofcontents[currentsection]
    %or \tableofcontents

Should do the job.

Yes, excellent indeed.  

An aside: *Carsten,* I have been off ill (eye operation at start of
December) so only today have I managed to come back to play with
org-mode's beamer support.  Everything so far is working as expected,
i.e. very well indeed.

I think you need to add it explicitly with \tableofcontents?  In beamer, I simply typically have

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\begin{frame}<beamer> 
  \frametitle{Table of contents}
  \tableofcontents
\end{frame}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I think the decision was to allow users to customise this themselves
(as indicated in your subsequent followup with a link to one of our
previous messages on this topic).

Again, beamer supports this easily so I would suggest simply adding
some direct latex code at the start of your org file.  The latex code
I use is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\AtBeginSection[]
{
  \begin{frame}
    \frametitle{Topic}
    \tableofcontents[currentsection]
  \end{frame}
}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

You could simply put this in one line with #+latex_header: as in (untested):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+latex_header: \AtBeginSection[]{  \begin{frame}    \frametitle{Topic}    \tableofcontents[currentsection]  \end{frame}}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

HTH,
eric

Hi Christian,

Do I understand correctly that this has to be set only once, and will
automatically happen at the beginning of each section?

Can this be done in the preamble, or must it be after \begin{document} ?

Thanks!

Hmm, I am not sure, because \alert is of course not defined in normal  
LaTeX export.  And maybe it would even be better to redifine bold  
emphasis as alert for beamer export?

I believe turning this on for all frames has drawbacks, like
loosing overlay capability?

However, I guess it does make sense to have a global variable to
set default options for frames, I guess.  I'll put that on my list.

That happens at the BEAMER_env property and give you a way to
select the environment with a single key, for example `e b' for block.
If you move the cursor to the field for env args, e will give you a
prompt where you can edit.

I guess I wasn't clear...

If I use the option `toc' for the export:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+OPTIONS:   toc:t
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

then I get a slide with the table of contents. Automatically. The only
"criticism" I did is that there was no title to the generated frame.

Hence, the workaround was setting the `toc' option to `nil' and adding such a
code by myself:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEAMER: \frame{\frametitle{Outline}\tableofcontents}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But better (IMHO) would be that such a code gets inserted automatically (with
a frame title set, for example, to `Outline') when the `toc' export option is
set to `t', and when we're in a beamer class.

Is it better expressed?

Better is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN_BEAMER
\AtBeginSection[] % Do nothing for \section*
{
  \begin{frame}<beamer>
    \frametitle{Outline}
    \tableofcontents[currentsection]
  \end{frame}
}
#+END_BEAMER
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks Eric and Christian for your input on this!

Best regards,
  Seb

Yes, you do.

It can be done in the preamble as well. Tested.

Hi Sebastien,

there is now a new option org-beamer-frame-default-options, and the  
automatically generated to will be wrapped into a frame with title.

For me, bold and alert are 2 different beasts. Some beamer styles even display
them differently (different colors, for example). Better would be not to mix
them, IMHO.

Whether in org-mode or in org-beamer-mode, when typing `e' on the second
column, it opens the tag selection interface in the minibuffer. But, here,
what I'm trying to add is a property, not a tag...?

Pressing TAB allows me free edition, but what's inserted at the node is a
tag...

PS- An idea: wouldn't it be good (*iff* easily feasible) to load
org-beamer-mode when opening an Org file whose LaTeX class is beamer?

  Seb

Indeed you are changing the tag, but the property will change along
with it (check it!).  The idea is that the property is *tracked* by
a tag, to make the current value constantly visible.  I use the tag
interface just because it exists and is simple to use.

Which will cause a change in the property as well, I believe.  I know
it is confusing - but once you've got your head around this, it will be
very useful.

That could be done, but you can also set the startup option.
But yes, it is one more think to remember...

I remember now why I did it like this.

1. If the global LaTeX class is not beamer, you still
    want to be able to turn the mode on, because you might
    have a subtree that will be exported as beamer presentation

2. If you are not missing the `C-c C-b' key, you can just
    turn on org-beamer-mode in every org-mode by setting
    org-startup-with-beamer-mode.

Right.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Org-Beamer minor mode (indicator Bm):
Special support for editing Org-mode files made to export to beamer.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Wouldn't it be better to rename the function to be called as `M-x
org-beamer-minor-mode'. Many minor modes are called that way, even if a quick
overview of the functions show that it does not seem to be enforced.

Right. Not a problem.

I don't know if it's me, but, nope, it does not.

Look, I'm starting from such a node:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Current assets

** DB
*** Model
**** Schema
**** Partial X
     We extended X in order to put constraints on things (as one can
     with cardinalities).
**** What
*** Rules
**** Other
***** First
***** Second
***** Rules, with link automatically made between rule failures and contributing properties
**** Performance
***** Specialization of programs given partial data
***** Query reduction: optimize the queries so that with a minimal IO interaction the necessary data from a DB can be requested
*** Computations
**** Excel engine *IS NOT THE LAST ITEM*
*** Integrity *has a subitem* (not shown by default)
**** Seamless migrations is not visible if allowframebreaks is not set
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Trying to add the property on the level-2 item named "DB", as you can see in
my "lossage":

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
M-x o r g - b e <tab> a m e r <tab> m o <tab> <return>
M-x <up> <return> C-c C-x C-c <right> e b e e <tab>
[ a l l w o <backspace> <backspace> o w f r a m e s
<backspace> b r e a k s ] <return> q q <tab> <tab>
<tab> <tab> <tab> <down> <tab> <down> <tab> <up> <tab>
<tab> <up> <tab> <tab> C-h C-h l
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I end up with that change:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Current assets

** DB                                            :[allowframebreaks]:B_block:
   :PROPERTIES:
   :END:
*** Model
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Properties are empty.

When not typing `e b', I just end up with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** DB                                                    :[allowframebreaks]:
*** Model
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

No property block is created...

Maybe I still do something wrong?

As soon as I get this working, OK, yes, not a problem, I just have to know...

Thanks,

Hi Carsten,

Carsten Dominik wrote:

When setting it into Emacs, great, it DOES WORK as expected!

Though, I believe this is more a setting of the document itself, instead of
one customization in my own `.emacs' file.

I would rather like my colleagues to get the same output when compiling my
document. I tried, then, the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* COMMENT Setup

# This is for the sake of Emacs.
# Local Variables:
# ispell-local-dictionary: "en_US"
# org-beamer-frame-default-options: "[allowframebreaks]"
# End:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

with no success, though.

Maybe I would have to try with a `#+BIND'. Though, wouldn't it be better to
explicitly add something like:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEAMER_FRAME_EXTRA_OPTIONS: [allowframebreaks]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Easy for me to (just) propose it, though...


> and the automatically generated to will be wrapped into a frame with title.

Tested. Perfect.

THANKS A LOT.

No, I think putting minor into the name is a mistake.  The only place
where this makes sense is something like outline-minor-mode, i.e. where
a major mode of the same name exists.

Yes, that would make sense if it is a frequently used feature.
I like to hesitate with introducing these special customizations
until I am convinced that this is used reasonably often.  Otherwise
I would have to have 1000 of the special lines, approximately.

Question to all:  How likely is the use of a default option you'd
want to have on *every* frame?

I believe I have said several times that the second column is *not* the
one for the options.  The third is.

#+BIND: org-beamer-frame-default-options "[allowframebreaks]"

does work.

The problem is similar to the `fragile' option. Either we can detect the
"overflow" (and the automatically add the option only when needed), or we must
add it everywhere in order to ensure we won't have text cut.

It's a bit different from when we directly edit beamer files. We compile often
and we see the problem appearing.

Here, with Org, we would just work in Org only, and publish once at the end. A
bit more easy to be aware that some text may have pass away.

As #+BIND works, I can imagine living quite honestly the way it currently is,
but I let the others decide upon this.

Best regards,
  Seb

As said previously, yes, it does work for the exporting to beamer TeX file.

Though, I experience a bigger problem... When reopening my example file, I now
have to answer "yes or no" to apply the BIND variable (that's OK), but (after
answering yes -- no tested with no, as that's not what I need) I loose all the
colors in my Org buffer: the Org file becomes black only, in fixed font! All
the font locking is away, making the Org file more or less useless (as if I
would edit it with Notepad).

Any idea??

For info, the "black and white" phenomenon is propagated to the Summary buffer
of Gnus as well. No idea...

Best regards,
  Seb

Hi Sebastian,

Can you please turn on debug-on-quit, and then quit at the prompt and  
show me the backtrace?  Because I do not get this by simply visiting a  
file.

Okaaayyy...

I wouldn't say you "said" it several times, but when re-reading this, yes, you
mentioned it, but my eyes passed over it...

Though, I really am sorry to waste your time with silly problems, but I still
have troubles editing this through the interface.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
ITEM                            | Env   | Options | DefOvl | Overlay | Col  |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Editing in the second column ("Env") does only create a tag, as mentioned in
my previous posts.

The third one ("Options") allows inserting a string without passing through
the tag interface. There, I insert the string `[allowframebreaks]'.

Though, the property created is `BEAMER_opt', not `BEAMER_envargs'??

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** Model                                                 :[allowframebreaks]:
*** Extensions (aggregation, negation)
** DB  
   :PROPERTIES:
   :BEAMER_opt: [allowframebreaks]
   :END:  
*** Subitem
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So, this does not add the option `allowframebreaks' to the frames...

Best regards,
  Seb

Same impact in Gnus.

OK, this is helpful.  You are not using the most recent version of
the columns template for beamer support.  For example, the BEAMER_opt  
property is not used anymore.

Can you use a new file and insert a fresh template, and take it from  
there?

Must have taken it from a previous post here, or from your initial example.
Sorry.


> Can you use a new file and insert a fresh template, and take it from there?

Just updated the COLUMNS line in my file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+COLUMNS: %40ITEM %10BEAMER_env(Env) %10BEAMER_envargs(Env Args) %4BEAMER_col(Col) %8BEAMER_extra(Extra)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And that does work.

Thanks for spotting this...

Best regards,
  Seb

So... You're just a plain human?  ;-))  I'm falling from high.


> fixed now.

Yep. It does work!

Comment about this `allowframebreaks' story: I've just seen, using the
defaults (and Madrid), that the consequence of putting `allowframebreaks' on
every frame is that it adds a roman number after the title, like:

  * First slide I
  * First slide II
  * Second slide I
  * Third slide I

So, even for slides not spread across multiple pages, it adds an annoying
number (for the second and third slides).

The only solution would be that Org or the user just adds the property where
needed. For Org, it seems impossible. So, up to the user in the default
configuration.

The beamer solution is to play with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\setbeamertemplate{frametitle continuation}[from second]
%                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^

\renewcommand\insertcontinuationtext{...}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks a lot.

Best regards,
  Seb

Hi Carsten,

Another suggestion. I think the order of macros would be better changed in the
beamer preamble.

Instead of:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\usepackage{listings}


\title{Inventory}
\author{Seb Vauban}
\date{2010-01-07}

\usetheme{mc}\usecolortheme{default}
\begin{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I think the following is better suited:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\usepackage{listings}

\usetheme{mc}\usecolortheme{default}

\title{Inventory}
\author{Seb Vauban}
\date{2010-01-07}

\begin{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The reason is that the natural order of packages loaded is:

- the beamer class
- the beamer theme overrides
- the document overrides

That allows one to write a private theme, and set things up (like a default
author or title) that won't take precedence over the *document settings*.

Best regards,
  Seb

I don't think org-mode should try to detect when to use any of the frame options
in beamer. This could get into the way more then helping, specially the
allowframebreaks option.

In fact, the beamer manual tells you not to use the allowframebreaks option
except for long bibliographies (well, it also tells you not to use long
bibliographies) and I agree with this. In a presentation you have to choose
carefully what you will put in each slide and always leaving this to beamer with
the allowframebreaks is not a good approach.

In addition, I agree that when working in a presentation with org-mode you
compile much less, but you should still compile sometimes to see if the slides
are well designed. I don't know if Carsten has plans to implement this, but a
"fast preview" that exports and compiles only the current slide could be useful
here.

At last, I have a small feature request that would help organizing the
information among the slides. Right now you can use Alt+up/down arrow to move a
list item in a heading, but org does not allow passing beyond a heading
limit. This makes sense in a normal org file and is very useful, but when
writing a presentation with org this restriction can get into the way. This is
not a big deal, but maybe others are also interested in this.

I don't see what the problem could be of enabling (or having the possibility
to enable) that option on every slide by default.

Just read page 56 of the beamer manual. Makes (some) sense, yes.

Still, I don't really see which problem this would bring, even if that's not
the purest manner of writing slides.

BTW, yes, I saw one problem. There is some orphan title on the bottom of one
page, and the contents on the top of the next one. Maybe, though, that can be
easily fixed by `nobreaks' macros (either manual or automatic).

That's really the point. Contents vs Presentation.

At least, my biggest problem is that I like to be warned somehow (but how?)
that such a problem is occurring, that some slide's contents is just too big
to stay on one page.

I would quite not like to have to scan the full presentation, comparing the
Org source and the beamer PDF in order to see if every line is in both. Don't
forget we can author such a presentation with multiple persons working on the
Org source, and that (as well) it's never always right or wrong: *changing of
theme* brings fonts differences or margins *differences that can hide lines
that were supposed to be visible*.

I basically understand your point, but my objection is about having constantly
to check the results for missing lines.

Having to spend more time to move items from one slide to the other would make
such a feature useful for me as well, I guess.

Not sure if we can apply the above reasoning to that one. The question
certainly merits to be asked, but I'm not enlightened enough to give an
answer.

That's true that if we say: "it's up to the user" for the slide preparation,
we can apply that to everything, or consider the automatic stuff to be really
good.

Just don't know.

Best regards,
  Seb

I think that I cannot make this work in a good way.
Alternatives:

1. cut and paste of subtrees `C-c C-x C-w' ... `C-y'
2. Demote the frame line, move it down, promote it again.

I agree that it is useful to have an easy way to specify one or more options for
every frame, but from the beamer manual I understand that these options where
created for specific cases and IMHO org shouldn't include any frame option by
default.

About the fragile option, the beamer manual tells you when to use it, but
doesn't mention any drawbacks of its use. I also tried searching for problems
with the fragile option but I found nothing and therefore I do not know the
implications of enabling the fragile option in every frame. However, if there is
no drawbacks then I wonder why the beamer author didn't make it the default
behavior.

Maybe it is better to ask in a beamer mailing list the implications of setting
this option for every frame.

Because it is slow - each frame source code has to be written to a  
file, then read back in.
