\section{Introduction}
|
||
Beamer is an awesome way to make presentations with LaTeX. But the stock themes
|
||
do not necessarily look particularly nice and the custom themes often scream
|
||
“Beamer” at first sight. The goal of \textsc{mtheme} is to provide a modern
|
||
Beamer theme with minimal visual noise. It provides section slides with a neat
|
||
progress bar and It is intended to be used with
|
||
\href{https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/styleguide/products/firefox-os/typeface/}{Fira
|
||
Sans}, a gorgeous typeface commissioned by Mozilla and designed by
|
||
\href{http://www.carrois.com/fira-3-1/}{Carrois}. Hence to get the best results
|
||
you should have installed the Fira typeface and use XeTeX to typeset your
|
||
slides. Nevertheless this is no hard dependency. The theme also works fine with
|
||
pdfTeX and the Computer Modern typeface.
|
||
|
||
The codebase is maintained on \href{https://github.com/matze/mtheme}{GitHub}. So
|
||
if you have issues, find mistakes in the manual or want to contribute – to make
|
||
the theme even better – get in touch there.
|
||
|
||
|
||
\section{Getting Started}
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Installation}
|
||
|
||
The \textsc{mtheme} uses Make as build system. Hence the installation is very
|
||
straight forward. Simply type
|
||
\begin{lstlisting}
|
||
$ make
|
||
$ make install
|
||
\end{lstlisting}
|
||
in the top directory and all the files will be created and installed on your
|
||
computer. The complete list of make rules is as follows:
|
||
|
||
\begin{description}
|
||
\item[all] \hfill \\
|
||
Build the theme, the manual and the demo presentation.
|
||
\item[install] \hfill \\
|
||
Install the theme into your local texmf folder.
|
||
\item[uninstall] \hfill \\
|
||
Remove the theme from your local texmf folder.
|
||
\item[sty] \hfill \\
|
||
Build the manual.
|
||
\item[manual] \hfill \\
|
||
Build the manual.
|
||
\item[demo] \hfill \\
|
||
Build the demo presentation.
|
||
\item[ctan] \hfill \\
|
||
Create a package for CTAN distribution.
|
||
\end{description}
|
||
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Dependencies}
|
||
|
||
\begin{itemize}
|
||
\item XeLaTeX
|
||
\item \href{https://github.com/mozilla/Fira}{Fira Sans} and Mono font
|
||
\item TikZ
|
||
\end{itemize}
|
||
|
||
Depending on the Linux distribution, the packaged name of |Fira Sans| might be
|
||
|Fira Sans OT| instead of |Fira Sans|. In that case, you may have to edit
|
||
|beamerfontthememetropolis.dtx|. You may also need to install Fira Sans; see
|
||
the |contrib/| directory for more. Users of Debian or Ubuntu can also install
|
||
this \href{https://launchpad.net/\%7Eedd/+archive/ubuntu/misc/+files/latex-
|
||
mtheme_0.1.0vidid1_all.deb}{.deb package} containing the theme files as well
|
||
as the Fira Sans font files.
|
||
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Pandoc}
|
||
|
||
To use this theme with \href{http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/}{Pandoc}-based
|
||
presentations, you can run the following command
|
||
|
||
\begin{lstlisting}
|
||
$ pandoc -t beamer --latex-engine=xelatex -V theme:m -o output.pdf input.md
|
||
\end{lstlisting}
|
||
|
||
|
||
\subsection{A Minimal Example}
|
||
|
||
To get started with the theme is very simple. The following code shows a
|
||
minimal example of a Beamer presentation using the \textsc{mtheme}.
|
||
|
||
\begin{lstlisting}
|
||
\documentclass[10pt]{beamer}
|
||
\usetheme{m} % load mtheme
|
||
\title{A modern beamer theme} % define title
|
||
\date{\today} % define date
|
||
\author{Matthias Vogelgesang} % define author
|
||
\institute{Institute} % define institute
|
||
\begin{document}
|
||
\maketitle % create titlepage
|
||
\section{First Section} % create section
|
||
\begin{frame}{First Frame} % first frame
|
||
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, ...
|
||
\end{frame}
|
||
\begin{frame}{Second Frame} % second frame
|
||
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, ...
|
||
\end{frame}
|
||
\end{document}
|
||
\end{lstlisting}
|
||
|
||
\section{Customization}
|
||
\subsection{Package options}
|
||
The theme provides a number of options. To use any of the options below, call
|
||
them when invoking \textsc{mtheme} in the preamble of the slides, i.e.
|
||
\begin{lstlisting}[numbers=none]
|
||
\usetheme[<options>]{m}
|
||
\end{lstlisting}
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{usetitleprogressbar}
|
||
Adds a thin progress bar similar to the section progress bar underneath each
|
||
frame title.\\
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{blockbg}
|
||
Adds background color to the blocks similar to other beamer themes.\\
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{nooffset}
|
||
By default, the \textsc{mtheme} adds |\vspace{2em}| after the frametitle to
|
||
center content vertically on the frame. This option removes this additional
|
||
space in order to get more content per slide.\\
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{nosectionslide}
|
||
By default when using the |\section| command, a slide is created with just the
|
||
title and the progress bar on it. This option prevents the creation of these
|
||
additional slides.\\
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{usetotalslideindicator}
|
||
By default, only the current page number is printed in the lower right corner.
|
||
This option changes the slide numbering format to |#current/#total|.\\
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{noslidenumbers}
|
||
Omits slide numbers entirely.\\
|
||
|
||
\noindent\DescribeMacro{darkcolors}
|
||
Makes the background dark and the foreground light.\\
|
||
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Color Customization}
|
||
|
||
The included metropolis color theme is used by default, but its colors can be
|
||
easily changed to suit your tastes. All of the theme's styles are defined in
|
||
terms of three beamer colors:
|
||
\begin{itemize}
|
||
\item |normal text| (dark fg, light bg)
|
||
\item |alerted text| (colored fg, should be visible against dark or light)
|
||
\item |example text| (colored fg, should be visible against dark or light)
|
||
\end{itemize}
|
||
An easy way to customize the theme is to redefine these colors using
|
||
|
||
\begin{lstlisting}[numbers=none]
|
||
\setbeamercolor{ ... }{ fg= ... , bg= ... }
|
||
\end{lstlisting}
|
||
in your preamble. For greater customization, you can redefine any of the other
|
||
colors in |beamercolorthememetropolis|, including progress bar.
|
||
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Title Case Formatting}
|
||
|
||
The main title, section titles, frame titles and plain frame titles are all
|
||
formatted according to the custom command |\mthemetitleformat|. By default,
|
||
this is equivalent to |\MakeLowercase{#1}|, hence seting the titles in small
|
||
capitals. You can change this behaviour in your preamble. For example:
|
||
|
||
\begin{lstlisting}
|
||
% camel case
|
||
\renewcommand{\mthemetitleformat}{}
|
||
% lowercase
|
||
\renewcommand{\mthemetitleformat}\MakeLowercase}
|
||
% uppercase
|
||
\renewcommand{\mthemetitleformat}{\MakeUppercase}
|
||
\end{lstlisting}
|
||
|
||
Be aware that these formatting macros will be replaced with theme options in
|
||
the future.
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Commands}
|
||
|
||
The |\plain{title=[]}{<body>}| command sets a slide in plain dark colors which
|
||
can be useful to focus attention on a single sentence or image.
|
||
|
||
|
||
\subsection{Paul Tol's colors: a \texttt{pgfplots} theme}
|
||
|
||
A good presentation uses colors that are
|
||
|
||
\begin{itemize}
|
||
\item distinct from each other as much as possible, and
|
||
\item distinct from black and white,
|
||
\item under many different lighting and display environments, and
|
||
\item to color-blind viewers,
|
||
\item all while matching well together.
|
||
\end{itemize}
|
||
|
||
In a \href{https://personal.sron.nl/~pault/colourschemes.pdf}{technical note}
|
||
for SRON, Paul Tol proposed a palette of colors satisfying these constraints.
|
||
The sub-package |pgfplotsthemetol| defines palettes for |pgfplots| charts
|
||
based on Tol's work. Use the |mlineplot| key to plot line data and |mbarplot|
|
||
or horizontal |mbarplot| to plot bar charts.
