Global Styles
For Touying, global styles refer to set rules or show rules that need to be applied everywhere, such as #set text(size: 20pt).
Themes in Touying encapsulate some of their own global styles, which are placed in #self.methods.init. For example, the simple theme encapsulates:
config-methods(
init: (self: none, body) => {
set text(fill: self.colors.neutral-darkest, size: 25pt)
show footnote.entry: set text(size: .6em)
show strong: self.methods.alert.with(self: self)
show heading.where(level: self.slide-level + 1): set text(1.4em)
body
},
)If you are not a theme creator but simply want to add some of your own global styles to your slides, you can easily place them before or after #show: xxx-theme.with(). For example, the metropolis theme recommends that you add the following global styles yourself:
#set text(font: "Fira Sans", weight: "light", size: 20pt)
#show math.equation: set text(font: "Fira Math")
#set strong(delta: 100)
#set par(justify: true)Global Information
Like Beamer, Touying helps you better maintain global information through a unified API design, allowing you to easily switch between different themes. Global information is a typical example of this.
You can set the title, subtitle, author, date, and institution information of your slides with:
config-info(
title: [Title],
subtitle: [Subtitle],
author: [Authors],
date: datetime.today(),
institution: [Institution],
)Later on, you can access them through self.info.
This information is generally used in the theme's title-slide, header, and footer, such as #show: metropolis-theme.with(aspect-ratio: "16-9", footer: self => self.info.institution).
The date can accept datetime format and content format, and the date display format of the datetime format can be changed with:
config-common(datetime-format: "[year]-[month]-[day]")
