Hi Ratul,

I like very much the beamer style you've made however there are two things I'd like to do and was wondering whether you could help me sort this out:

1. On your "setta_presentation" example, there is a block surrounding the first line of your title, how could I do that ?
2. Is there an 'easy' way to define a color theme by section, for instance "colorblue" for the first section, "colorgreen" for the second and "colororange" for the third one ?

Many thanks in advance for your help,
Best wishes,

Raphaële

Hello.

I'm starting to use Beamer and LaTeX and decided your template as my standard template for beamer.

I understood your codes and how it flows.

But the problem is I have almost no knowledge of LaTeX so I have zero idea how to transform your minimal demo into these awesome presentation slides.
e.g. you drew a lot of diagrams and tree structures. I have no idea that it is actual imported image files or generated from LaTeX code.
e.g. arrows pointing contents. It could be LaTeX command, It could be image or It could be generated image using vector drawing command in LaTeX.

It could be rude but if you don't mind, could you provide samples of your other demo or give me some hints? such as name of command or packages..

It would make my life much easier. Otherwise I should search everything from bottom cause I have almost no knowledge of LaTeX.

First of all, thanks for taking the ti,e for putting together a new beamer theme, I do not understand the reason the math seem so plain.

I declare a shorthand for the vectors and matrices:

this is the code I used for creating the slide :

as you see the final is plain no difference with the normal text.

I liked a lot the template, but I am having troubles in using math formulas. What could it be?

Hi,

I was trying to the example with XeLaTeX using a minimal MacTeX install, but I'm getting this error

No file presento.nav.

! Package PGF Math Error: You've asked me to divide `360' by `0.0', but I canno
t divide any number by `0.0' (in '\c@framenumber *(360/(\c@totalfr -1))').

See the PGF Math package documentation for explanation.

what should I do ?

The culprit is apparently line 53 in presento.sty

\filldraw[fill=colorblue!40, draw=colorblue!50]  (0,0) -- (0.2,0) arc (0:{\value{framenumber}*(360/(\value{totalfr}-1))}:0.2) -- (0,0); 

which should read (I guess):

\filldraw[fill=colorblue!40, draw=colorblue!50]  (0,0) -- (0.2,0) arc (0:{\value{framenumber}*(360/(\value{totalfr}))}:0.2) -- (0,0); 

notice \value{totalfr}-1 becomes \value{totalfr}

I'm trying to insert citations in my Presento slide deck using \footfullcite. However, nothing is displayed at the bottom of the frame. I also tried just manually formatting a citation using a footnote but this doesn't seem to display either. Is this possible with Presento?

• Loading the xcolor package is not necessary, the beamer class already provides this functionality

• Loading the enumitem is not a good idea in a beamer document, this package is incompatible to beamer and causes problems, e.g. https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/393671/36296

• (my personal opinion) In the beamer context, it might be more natural to provide a theme then to use \input{...}.

Maybe it would be a good idea to introduce boxes with highlighted text.

I understand that it can sometimes muddle the presentation, but it comes in handy when needing some emphasis in-slide.

I believe there is an issue with the counter math throwing an error when the deck has more than 45 slides:

! Dimension too large. \pgfmath@x

Hi,
I love the template !

2 quick question:

1. How do you create the arrows for item in itemize environment (see examples without .tex file...)? I tried to set it to circle with this: \setbeamertemplate{itemize items}[circle] and it's not working.
2. Is there any hope to fix \titlegraphics{} and add logo to the titlepage?

Thanks,
András
