You start by writing down the core concepts that you will be talking about. Then sort and format
|
|
them as a pinpoint presentation in a text editor of your choice.
|
|
|
|
If this was a presentation given as a demonstration of pinpoint you would now be trying to read
|
|
this slide as well as pay attention to what is said. Less than ideal.
|
|
|
|
Pinpoint reloads the presentation when it changes on disk, very useful when you're tuning things
|
|
so keep both pinpoint and your text editor open. And remember, the less text you have, the happier
|
|
your audience will be ;-)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- You can add '\n' before and after the slide text to keep the file tidy and slides seperated
|
|
Let's use some of the more
|
|
esoteric features of pinpoint
|
|
|
|
- [bowls.jpg] [text-align=center]
|
|
\- [filename.jpg]
|
|
set a custom background for an individual slide
|
|
|
|
- [bunny.ogg] [fill]
|
|
You can put <b>anything</b> in the background
