Would like to create a Google Slides deck (which will be used as a template), which has the page number on every slide - but the slide numbers cannot be edited on the slides per se.
If I go to the Slide Master (Theme Builder), I can add shapes to a Master (Layout) slide. When I create a new slide (in Normal mode) based on this Master slide, the shape is not editable. This does not seem to apply when I add slide numbers in the master.
Is this possible?
The templates are meant to be editable by anyone that us them, so I think there is no way to lock/protect page numbers in the Slides.

I'm hoping to get some direction on the following scenario. I have some UI/UX design experience but not much in working with SharePoint 2013 branding. What I need to accomplish is the following:
Custom "tab" style navigation in the left hand and top of the page. These would look like folder tabs along the top, and on the left hand side they would only be rounded on the right corner. I understand that I need to edit the CSS but not sure how best to accomplish this considering some of our page requirements. We want to have the tabs along the top and left but each department's "page" is a different color theme.
Example of tabs required
Do I edit the Master Page CSS to get the rounded tabs look and then that is applied to each page, but that page keeps its color selection or do I have to do a CSS page for each page? For example, a department uses the color palette selection to assign their colors but the Master Page takes care of the tabs modification or do I have to do a Master Page for each department's page?
ANY direction would be a big help. I just need to deploy this as simply as possible but not sure how. -Thanks!
I have created a HTML5 presentation with slidify using the io2012 framework.
I am actually struggling with the navigation inside the presentation:
is there a way to link between slides, e.g. jump back to slide x from slide y? I know I can do this with HTML but maybe there is a better solution?
how can I embed a control panel in the slides so that users can click on an arrow to go to the next slide?
If i have same navigation on 2 places in every page , one is in dropdown and again is in left sider bar will it create difficulties for screen reader user?
Short answer, NO. Longer answer, it will be redundant for the listener. The reader will present the page in document order, not rendered order, so you can use the CSS positioning to arrange that one copy, the less useful copy to a reader user, will occur last.
It shouldn't be an issue. Assuming the drop down is a combo box there won't be duplicate text spoken since screen readers only read the selected item in a combo box by default not the entire list of items. I find links are the best way for me to navigate a frequently used page since most screen readers have the ability to generate a list of links, and I can use first letter navigation to get to where I need to go instead of cycling through a drop down with lots of choices most of which I probably don't care about.
You might like to add a "skip to content" link as the first focusable element on the page to let people jump past all the navigation if it's very long or repetitive.
I'm currently building a web form using APEX that is losely modelled after a "wizard" style. That is, I have forward and back buttons for most pages, etc, etc.
The problem I have is that it seems all my buttons need to be part of a region and that region needs to located in a pre-determined section of the page.
I would prefer to be able to place my buttons where I want them rather than include them into a specific region. I just want them at the bottom of the page.
At the very least, I need to get a region to ignore all my theming so that it can be "invisible" so that only the buttons are showing.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
See this example I just created on apex.oracle.com. The buttons are in a separate region that has no template associated with it.
In fact, it would be better to create a new region template for the buttons region, with no decoration applied. This would give you more control over the location and spacing of the buttons. At its simplest this template could be defined as:
<div id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" class="myButtonTemplate">
#BODY#
</div>
(The ID is optional, but I like all my tags to have IDs so I can reference them in Javascript and CSS if required.)
I am developing a public website which is the front end to information about medical conditions.
After the user does a search (questionnaire based) they are presented with the results which are categorised in to sections and sub-sections.
Information items can be assigned to both sections and sub-sections.
At the moment sections are represented by tabs across the top and the screen and sub-sections by links in a sidebar. The links in the sidebar change depending on which section is selected.
The problem is the section names are quite long (several words) and as a result the combined length of the tabs is too wide for a standard screen resolution (1024 x 768). Therefore they wrap and break the page layout. We will also have to add additional tabs in the future.
With this problem in mind and the fact our target audience is quite wide, this is a public medical website, what options are there for presenting this kind of information in a way which is accessible and easy to navigate for an average user.
How long are the subsection names? Will they fit in the space for tabs? You’re likely to get better user performance if you put the section links on the side bar menu and the subsection links in the tabs, rather than the other way around. See http://www.usability.gov/pubs/040106news.html.
The other alternative is to put everything on the side bar menu. Subsection links can appear indented under their section links. You can also consider putting the subsection links in a column of their own to the right of the section column. This makes the section menu stable, but takes a lot of horizontal space that’s perhaps better used for content. In either case, proper attention to visual design will show the current section, subsection, and the link between them.
There shouldn’t be a problem with accessibility as long as you’re using links to navigate to each section/subsection (perhaps generated programmatically for each page based on a database relating links to pages).
Just brainstorming some ideas:
Use combo boxes to allow the user to select the (sub)sections, then display the appropriate information items.
Create separate pages for each section-level and provide a bread-crumb control to show the user where he / she is in the page hierarchy.
Create some sort of fold-out menus that automatically hide when the user reads an information item.
In another question on SO, I came across a link to Quince, perhaps you can find some inspiration there as well.
You could try:
An iPod-style menu (in which subsections are hidden pages that fly in from the right): http://www.filamentgroup.com/lab/jquery_ipod_style_and_flyout_menus/
Or as Daan has said:
Cascading drop-down boxes: http://www.asp.net/AJAX/AjaxControlToolkit/Samples/CascadingDropDown/CascadingDropDown.aspx
The downside with both of these (over a traditional tree view) is that the subsections aren't visible until you choose a section. If your users don't know the name of the subsection they're after, then either of these will be a good fit.
If, on the other hand, they do know the name of the subsection they're after, it's probably better to give them an auto-complete textbox so they can type a few characters and go directly to it.
