When installed initially, PerlPointCD comes with two demo layouts: demo-cd
builds frame based HTML pages with Java navigation, while demo-cd-css
constructs CSS based slides. Prefering one or the other is a matter of personal taste, so the initial makefile
uses both of them to offer alternatives.
Feel free to modify the demo layouts. To use your own, just store them in the style
directory as well. (While it is possible to store them anywhere in the PerlPoint include path, integration with the tool directories makes it easier to share a CD package with a team.)
Layout integration is controlled by various files. First, replace the config files with your own ones, or just edit the original files (which can be found as prepare/demo-cd.cfg
and prepare/demo-cd-css.cfg
). In any case, adapting these configurations is the next step. I recommend to stay with the frame
# base configuration @demo-cd-base.cfg # style -style demo-cd # use your own filenames -start_page jindex.htm -slide_prefix jslide # activate browser navigation -linknavigation |
and to adapt just the -style
, -start_page
and -slide_prefix
options.
Second, the following lines in the makefile
need to be adapted to integrate your layouts:
html: explode # design 1 ${PPCD}/pp2html @${PREPARE}/$PROJECT.cfg ... # design 2 ${PPCD}/pp2html @${PREPARE}/$PROJECT-css.cfg ... |
If you prefer to have even more layouts or just one, add or delete lines appropriately.
