Presentations are a powerful way to communicate ideas and engage audiences. In the digital age, visual presentations have become even more popular, allowing presenters to showcase images that complement their content. In this article, we will explore a fascinating technology that enhances visual presentations with image rendering support – lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug.
lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug is an extension for the lookatme tool, which is used for creating interactive and dynamic markdown presentations. This extension utilizes two powerful tools – ueberzug and urwid-ueberzogen – to provide seamless image rendering within lookatme presentations.
The image rendering provided by lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug is specifically designed for Linux systems with X11 support. It’s important to note that this extension does not work with Wayland, so users should ensure they have X11 enabled.
To get started, installation of the lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug extension is straightforward. Simply use the pip package manager to install it:
bash
pip install lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug
Once installed, you will be able to incorporate images into your presentations. Currently, only local images are supported, with plans to add remote image support in the future.
To enable the lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug plugin, you need to add it to the metadata section of the markdown file’s header. Here’s an example:
“`txt
title:
<br>
author:<br>
extensions:<br>
– image_ueberzug
<hr>
<p>“`</p>
<p>In order to specify the height of the rendered image, you can use the text of the image itself. For example, if you want to render an image located at <code>path/to/image.png</code> with a height of 7 rows, you would use the following syntax:</p>
<p><code></code></p>
<p>This simple yet effective technique allows you to control the size and placement of your images within the presentation. With lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug, your visual presentations will come to life with stunning image rendering capabilities.</p>
<p>In summary, lookatme.contrib.image_ueberzug is a valuable extension that enhances visual presentations by seamlessly integrating image rendering. By leveraging the power of ueberzug and urwid-ueberzogen, this extension opens up a world of possibilities for captivating audiences with dynamic and engaging content.</p>
