From repository root:

You can generate your own presentation as follows:
-
On the top menu, choose
Simslides -> Import
PDF (or pressF2
) -
Choose a PDF file from your computer
-
Choose the folder to save the generated models at
-
Choose a prefix for your model names, they will be named "prefix-0", "prefix-1", ...
-
Click Generate. A model will be created for each page of your PDF. This may take a while, the screen goes black... But it works in the end. Sometimes it looks like not all pages of the PDF become models... That's an open issue.
-
When it's done, all slides will show up on the world in a grid.
If you already generated slide models with the step above, and now just want to spawn them into the world:
-
On the top menu, choose
Simslides -> Load Models
(or pressF3
) -
Choose the path of the directory which includes all the slides
-
Type in the model name prefix
-
Load
-
When it's done, all slides will show up on the world in a grid.
Once you have the slides loaded into the world, present as follows:
-
Press F5 or the play button on the top left to start presentation mode
-
Press the arrow keys to go back and forth on the slides
-
You're free to use the rest of Gazebo's interface while presenting, if you've navigated far away from the current slide, you can press
F1
to return to it. -
At any moment, you can press
F6
to return to the initial camera pose.
