I am using the xaringan
package for r
for a presentation:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/xaringan/index.html
which builds upon the remark.js
library.
I would like to use a two column layout, i.e. something like this from the original remark.js
teaser presentation:
where the original css
rules (which are embedded in the source of the presentation) specifies the layout via:
/* Two-column layout */
.left-column {
color: #777;
width: 20%;
height: 92%;
float: left;
}
.left-column h2:last-of-type, .left-column h3:last-child {
color: #000;
}
.right-column {
width: 75%;
float: right;
padding-top: 1em;
}
The problem is that when you use --
in one of the columns, it does not work as expected - it should trigger an incremental slide...
This does work, bullet points are displayed incrementally:
# Slide 1
- hello
--
- again
---
# Slide 2
- and one
--
- more
But within a column it does not work:
.left-column[
# Column 1
- hello
--
- again]
.right-column[
# Column 2
- and one
--
- more]
Next to that, in the original remark.js
css
specification, the right column is additionally divided by
.pull-left {
float: left;
width: 47%;
}
.pull-right {
float: right;
width: 47%;
}
.pull-right ~ p {
clear: both;
}
And again, the --
does not work anymore, neither with incremental steps within the .pull-right
/.pull-left
classes nor "between" them, i.e. to display the .pull-left
part first, than the .pull-right
part.
These problems do arise within the original remark.js
and therefore also in the xaringan
package.
After all, it would be great to have at least incremental slides within the right column. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? How can I modify the css to accomplish this?
Edit:
The whole markup within xaringan
, i.e. as written in rmarkdown
in Rstudio and then "knitted" is:
---
title: "Title"
author: "Myself"
date: "`r format(Sys.Date(), '%d.%m.%Y')`"
output:
xaringan::moon_reader:
css: ["default", "custom.css"]
nature:
highlightStyle: dracula
highlightLines: true
countIncrementalSlides: false
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
options(htmltools.dir.version = FALSE)
```
.left-column[
## Left column title
]
.right-column[
A whole sentence
- one `Markdown` bullet point
--
- a second bullet point
]
Within the file custom.css
there is only the left and right column classes nothing else, and these are copied from the teaser presentation from https://remarkjs.com/
It is a bit of a hack but you could use the template feature of remarkjs coupled with --
.
--
tells remarkjs to use the previous slide as a template. In a template you could use {{content}}
to tell where to put the next content. If you don't, it is append at the end of the template. it is why --
is used for incremental slide.
As explained in other answer, you cannot use --
inside a .class[]
call as it isn't a template then. However, you can use {{content}}
inside .class[]
so that using --
after will put the next text inside your previous .class[]
.
It is a bit of a hack because I don't think it will work with complicated incremental logic.

title: "Title"
author: "Myself"
date: "`r format(Sys.Date(), '%d.%m.%Y')`"
output:
xaringan::moon_reader:
css: ["default"]
nature:
highlightStyle: dracula
highlightLines: true
countIncrementalSlides: false
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
options(htmltools.dir.version = FALSE)
```
.left-column[
## Left column title
]
.right-column[
A whole sentence
+ one `Markdown` bullet point
{{content}}
]
--
+ a second bullet point
{{content}}
--
+ a third bullet point
{{content}}
--
+ a sub level
in the previous exemple, the right column has text appearing incrementally.
You cannot incrementally show incomplete elements using two dashes --
. When you split paragraphs or lists using --
, the subset will still be complete and valid elements. For example,
- One
- Two
--
- Three
The items - One
and - Two
still form a complete and valid list. However, when you split a column like .left-column[]
:
.left-column[
One paragraph.
--
Another paragraph.
]
The subsets are no longer valid Markdown: neither
.left-column[
One paragraph.
nor
Another paragraph.
]
is valid Markdown, hence they cannot be rendered. Basically when you build incremental slides using --
, you have to ask yourself if all text up to this point is valid Markdown.
In your case, you have to manually repeat certain elements to build incremental slides, which is certainly not efficient, but that is the only way to go. If you study the source of https://remarkjs.com, you will see the author of remark.js did exactly that, e.g.,
---
layout: false
.left-column[
## What is it?
]
.right-column[
A simple, in-browser, Markdown-driven slideshow tool targeted at people who know their way around HTML and CSS, featuring:
- Markdown formatting, with smart extensions
....
]
---
.left-column[
## What is it?
## Why use it?
]
.right-column[
If your ideal slideshow creation workflow contains any of the following steps:
- Just write what's on your mind
....
]
---
.left-column[
## What is it?
## Why use it?
]
.right-column[
As the slideshow is expressed using Markdown, you may:
- Focus on the content, expressing yourself in next to plain text not worrying what flashy graphics and disturbing effects to put where
....
]
So if even the author of remark.js does not have the magic in this case, I guess there isn't a clever solution to your problem.
