This page contains documentation on the sample presentation templates shipped with the Ebase Xi distribution.
The default presentation template shipped with the Ebase Xi distribution is named EBASE_THEMES. This contains six fully configured themes named theme_1, theme_2 etc, with theme_6 configured as the default. These themes are fairly conservative and are designed for general purpose use. They can be used as is or as a basis for creating additional customised presentation templates.
A number of additional presentation templates are also included in the distribution. Unlike the EBASE_THEMES template described above, these templates are not fully configured and represent a number of examples that show some of the presentation capabilities of the Ebase Xi system. The templates are ACALIA, CHARITY, CORPORATE, ELECTRONIX, NEWS, PUZZLED.
All the sample templates can be seen by running the themes gallery form SAMPLE_THEMES in the SAMPLES project. This form can also be run from the Getting Started page (Help --> Getting Started) by clicking on the sample presentation themes link. The form contains two tabs:
