Abstract: slidegraph automates the creation of layered, stepped sequence graphs for presentation slides (such as LaTeX Beamer or PowerPoint builds). Instead of omitting series across sequential slides (which causes axis bounds, tick intervals, margins, and legend bounding boxes to jump between frames), slidegraph plots all series in every frame and modulates visibility using Stata opacity modifiers (%0, %20, etc.). It supports binary revelation, 3-state narrative spotlighting (focus, dimmed ghost context, and off), automated export to LaTeX Beamer overlay code, and dual paper/slide output from a single command.
