Re: [pretext-support] Hide proofs in print

[Oscar Levin]

Switching over to dev, see below for context.

Would it be useful to have a "remove workspace" option in the print view, especially for guided notes that have been filled in?  I think this would be a pretty easy addition.

I put an empty paragraph in and put the workspace on that along with an appropriate component (notes?) and set that version in the other publication file.

Okay, following Mitch's suggestion, I put a component="notes" attribute on the proof of the theorem, then added

<version include="" />

to the publication file of my blank notes. This makes the proof disappear from the blank notes. Great!

Next, following Oscar's suggestion, I added workspace="3in" to the theorem to get vertical space, which works well for the blank notes.

However, the workspace="3in" attribute also adds the vertical space to the full print version which already contains the proof.

Is there any way to selectively add workspace only to a certain version?

Thank you!

Thank you both for the quick responses! I will give this a try.

I'll add to Mitch's suggestion that if you put the content inside a worksheet or handout division, you can add workspace to the theorem.  Or the proof.

You can accomplish this using versions. How I have done this for slides is written up in this MathTech.org post, and it works just as well for guided notes as I have suggested later on. If you follow my model, you’d put component=“a” on the proofs you don’t want in the blank notes version. I then put in a p with component=“b” and set the workspace when I need to give myself space after something that isn’t an exercise.

Hello,

I am writing a set of notes with three publication targets: web, print (as PDF), and a custom "blank notes". The blank notes are like the PDF except I use

<exercise-inline statement="yes" hint="no" answer="no" solution="no" />

in the publication file to hide the solution, which I am going to write in class using a tablet. These blank notes are also going to be handed out to students who can take their own notes to fill out the blank part.

This works well for exercises, but now I would like to achieve the same effect with theorem-like environments (theorem, proposition, corollary). Namely, I am looking for an option to hide the proof in my "blank notes" target with something like:

<theorem proof="no" />

so that students have a blank space to work out proofs in class. To make this more useful, it would be great if there was also a workspace="Xin" option for theorem environments to allow for X inches of blank space when proofs are not printed.

Is there any way to achieve this effect? Thank you.
