Increasing the size of a minipage proportional to the contain A bad question, sorry. I meant that keeping the textwidth fixed and adjusting the height. |

Increasing the size of a minipage proportional to the contain Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Where does fixing the width present a problem for height? |

Increasing the size of a minipage proportional to the contain Thanks, but the gap isn't proportional to the amount of text in the environment. For example, \begin{Notes}Test\end{Notes} should only have a small gap around it. |

Positioning content at the top of a beamer slide (by default) I did look at the beamer documentation and searched it using the word "position". But that didn't work. |

Using the “master file” with emacs and Sweave No. I think it something to do with the file extensions (they're .Rnw not .tex). |

Using the “master file” with emacs and Sweave To sweave a document you use the command M-n s and it doesn't (seem) to have any idea about the concept of a master file. I tried to hack my .emacs, but things quickly got messy. For example, auctex expects .tex file extensions. At this point, I thought there must be a better way. |

Using the “master file” with emacs and Sweave In emacs C+c C+b copies the preamble and the "included file" into a temporary file called _region.tex. It then latexs that file. Of course, chapter numbers, etc, are off. But it's very handy for quick checks. |
