gandalf on FullerScreen

Zbigniew Braniecki aka gandalf was so impressed by FullerScreen he has published a page where he lists his wishes for the future of the extension. My comments are in the sublist items.
- Speaker notes, a separate window/tab with notes that are
not for public
- this is very, very hard to do because it means what you have on screen is not what you see projected...
- Timelines, timetable - ability to measure how much time it
takes me to read the slide, and during the presentation present how
long I speak, how much time left, how long I present the screen and how
much time I have basing on the timeline from my tests (svg based time
scale? ;>)
- that is easily feasible and I'll add it to FS
- Theme format
- hmmm, not sure what he means here
- UI - back/forward semi-translucent buttons in right-bottom
corner visible onhover.
- yep, no problem
- Animations between slides (slide in/out, fade in/out)
- yes, we need it
- Animations for steps (slide, fade, fly in etc.)
- yep, I want that too.
- Localization, different translations of the presentation
(I often have my slides dual-language)
- not sure this is worth the complexity, to be honest
- <gandalf> glazou, would
you be able to predict that [slide content longer than the viewport
height - st.]?
like, by measuring the size of the each slide and saying that you need
at least X px wide to present the slideshow without a problem?
<stanislaw> or like ppt, which reduces the font size automatically (that might be dangerous though, trynig to help and in as a result, bothering the user by reducing what maybe they don't want reduced)
<gandalf> I prefer the pre-talk warning- absolutely, and I have a few ideas to do that
