CTAN Update: beamer version 3.07
by CTAN Announcements 12 Mar '07

12 Mar '07

On Sun, 11 Mar 2007, Till Tantau wrote submitted an update to the beamer package. The beamer LaTeX class can be used for producing slides. Its functionality is similar to Prosper but does not need any external programs and can directly produce a presentation using pdflatex. Beamer uses pgf for pdf/ps independent graphics. Frames are created using frame{...}, and a frame can build multiple slides through a simple notation for specifying material for each slide within a frame. Beamer supports bibliographies, appendicies and transitions. Short versions of title, authors, institute can also be specified as optional parameters. A plainframe{} allows a picture, for example, to fill the whole frame. Support figure and table environments, transparency effects, a ransduration command, animation commands, a pauses environment. Beamer also provides compatibility with other packages like prosper. Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/beamer License: GPLv2 Annoucement: After two years, this is the first bugfix release! It fixes some of the most troublesome bugs: 1) The problem with wrong colors after blocks in dvips mode. 2) The wrong name pgfuselayout mentioned in the manual. 3) Frame titles of fragile frames can be given inline. Furthermore, the chaotic license refences have been fixed, copyrighted pictures have been removed and this release should now be perfectly free. Changes: 2007-03-11 Till Tantau <tantau(a)users.sourceforge.net> CVS: - LyX layout removed since it is now part of the LyX development tree. - Cleaned up documentation. - Cleaned up license chaos and removed all possibly copyrighted material. - Fixed incorrect subsubsections in vertical navigation bars. - Fixed problem with overlay specifications in amsmath environments. - Fixed superfluous show in beamerthemeshadow.sty - Fixed color problem in beamer boxes with rounded corners. - Fixed problem with frametitle syntax in fragile frames. - Fixed missing frame subtitles in article mode. - Added french solution translations (due to Philippe De Sousa). _______________________________________________ Thanks for the upload.
