Overleaf Beta Testing

As I have signed up in the Overleaf beta testing programme, I am able to access new features early. The latest is testing their AI tool to help fix any errors to the LaTeX code.

This is going well so far, and seems a useful feature, especially as LaTeX can throw up problems that are harder to identify at times

Updates

7/7/2024 : I have made a video to illustrate how this feature can be used:

LaTeX : Course takeaway - Page Orientation

LaTeX : Course takeaway – Page Orientation

I am still undertaking the EdX LaTeX Course, however one of the useful takeaways so far for me is to use the pdflscape package rather than the lscape package.

I have made a video which illustrates the difference between the two.

This is just basic usage but it should be enough to get started.

Improve Your Writing Productivity

On the 24th Feb I made a post to help promote a webinar on How To Improve Your Writing Productivity, A Research-Based Approach which was taking place on the 28th Feb. This was presented by Bec Evans and Chris Smith, co-founders of Prolifiko! in Partnership with Overleaf.

You can now watch the recording of this by registering here it is about 58 minutes long, I am not sure if this includes any Q&A.

Software Testing

Big Blue Button and Overleaf Testing

I am currently involved in testing various software resources, this include Big Blue Button and Overleaf.

Big Blue Button

Big Blue Button Testing

The instance of BBB I am using is hosted by Faircam, we have access to both the current stable release,but also the alpha release. This allows for testing of the software. I am part of the BBB developer google group, so can report issues and have just joined the Users' list to discuss there too.

Overleaf Online LaTeX Editor testing

With Overleaf, users are given access to new features to try out, so right now they are introducing a new editor, so the options are the Beta editor, Normal editor and the usual Rich text editor. As I prefer to just write in LaTeX, then I am using the normal editor, but also switching between that and the new test editor and can fill in a simple online form to give feedback on new features.

Another LaTeX video, this time relating to creating a bibliography. This isn't using Overleaf, however the principle is similar. The Overleaf example file has a built in Bibliography example. I have found a video that covers this, so please see the second video below.

There are adverts every so often, but you can just skip these.
