\section{Aspect ratio}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Aspect ratio}
This pdf uses a 16:9 aspect ratio. To utilize
this version, simply use:
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass[aspectratio=169]{beamer}
\end{verbatim}
\vfill
The default is a 4:3 aspect ratio.
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass{beamer}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\section{vfilleditems}
\begin{frame}{Using itemize}
\begin{itemize}
\item I like it to have my bullet points
\item evenly spaced from one another
\item then few bullet points, are not crammed on
the upper part of the slide
like it is right now with itemize
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Using vfilleditems}
\begin{verbatim}
Use the provided \vfilleditems environment
to create nicely spaced bullet points.
\begin{vfilleditems}
\item I like it to have my bullet points
\item evenly spaced from one another
\item then few bullet points, are not crammed on
the upper part of the slide
\end{vfilleditems}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{Using vfilleditems}
\begin{vfilleditems}
\item I like it to have my bullet points
\item evenly spaced from one another
\item then few bullet points, are not crammed on
the upper part of the slide
\end{vfilleditems}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{Using vfilleditems}
\begin{vfilleditems}
\item Note that the overlay specification
is a bit different to \emph{itemize}
\item For grouped overlay specifications, simply add it
directly after the environment:
\begin{vfilleditems}
\item \texttt{\textbackslash{}begin\{vfilleditems\}<+->}
\end{vfilleditems}
\end{vfilleditems}
\end{frame}
\section{Fonts}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Fonts}
Fonts:
{\small This is small}
This is normal size
{\large This is large}
\vfill
Per default the \emph{Fira Font} Package is
used. The \emph{Noto Font} is also bundled into this
package.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Fonts}
To use \emph{Noto} instead of \emph{Fira Fonts}
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme[noto]{pureminimalistic}
\end{verbatim}
\vfill
To disable the \emph{Fira Fonts} and use the default font
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme[customfont]{pureminimalistic}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\section{Color}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Color}
To overwrite the theme color
\begin{enumerate}
\item Define a new color
\item redefine the themes color (before document begins)
\end{enumerate}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Change color example}
\small
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme{pureminimalistic}
\definecolor{textcolor}{RGB}{0, 0, 120}
\definecolor{title}{RGB}{0, 0, 0}
\definecolor{footercolor}{RGB}{133, 133, 133}
\definecolor{bg}{RGB}{25, 116, 210}
\renewcommand{\beamertextcolor}{textcolor}
\renewcommand{\beamerbgcolor}{bg}
\renewcommand{\beamerfootertextcolor}{footercolor}
\renewcommand{\beamertitlecolor}{title}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Dark mode}
I've included a simple way to use a dark mode
color theme. To use the dark color mode, provide the \texttt{darkmode}
option.
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme[darkmode]{pureminimalistic}
\end{verbatim}
Sometimes, the logos have to be changed to look nice on a
dark background. For now, I am simply loading different
files if \texttt{darkmode} is used.
\end{frame}
\section{Graphics}
\begin{frame}{Logos}
Commands setting the logos:
\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{\textbackslash{}logotitle} -- Command used for the title page.
Here \texttt{\textbackslash{}linewidth} corresponds to the entire paper width.
\item \texttt{\textbackslash{}logoheader} -- Command used for the header.
Here \texttt{\textbackslash{}linewidth} corresponds to a smaller box,
as the horizontal space is shared with the title.
\item \texttt{\textbackslash{}logofooter} -- Command used for the footer.
Here \texttt{\textbackslash{}linewidth} corresponds to a smaller box,
as the horizontal space is shared with the footer text.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Logos -- Load own logo}
To use your own logos, simply redefine the commands and adjust the sizes.
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand{\logotitle}{\includegraphics%
[width=.2\linewidth]{alternative_logo/gameboy.png}}
\renewcommand{\logoheader}{\includegraphics%
[width=.5\linewidth]{alternative_logo/gameboy.png}}
\renewcommand{\logofooter}{\includegraphics%
[width=.15\linewidth]{alternative_logo/console.png}}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Logos -- Disable logo}
To disable the logo, overwrite the default logo command with an empty
command.
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand{\logoheader}{}
\end{verbatim}
You may want to add some vertical space if you wish to delete the \texttt{logoheader}.
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand{\logoheader}{\vspace{1.5em}}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{Figures}
I also changed the default caption settings to not
include \texttt{Figure:} and reduced the font size.
\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\begin{columns}[T]
\begin{column}{.3\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-a}
\caption{Example A}
\end{column}
\begin{column}{.3\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-b}
\caption{Example B}
\end{column}
\end{columns}
\end{figure}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Figures -- Set background watermark}
There is no extra option to define a background watermark, but here
is a command that could be used to create one manually:
\vfill
\begin{verbatim}
\setbeamertemplate{background}{%
\tikz[overlay,remember picture]%
\node[opacity=0.8]at (current page.center)%
{\includegraphics[width=.2\linewidth]%
{example-image-a}};%
}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
{
\setbeamertemplate{background}{%
\tikz[overlay,remember picture]%
\node[opacity=0.8]at (current page.center)%
{\includegraphics[width=.2\linewidth]%
{example-image-a}};%
}
\begin{frame}{Figures -- Set background watermark}
Usually you would add this command to specific
frames by enclosing this command and all desired frames with
curly brackets.
\vfill
See the source code of this \emph{*.tex} file for an
example.
\end{frame}
}
\section{Footer options}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Disable footer}
If you do not want to use a footer, disable it with:
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme[nofooter]{pureminimalistic}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Show max slide numbers}
For these slides, I used the option to
show the maximum number of slides. To activate it
one has to activate it with:
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme[showmaxslides]{pureminimalistic}
\end{verbatim}
Usually, I prefer to not show the maximum number of
slides, as the people tend to lose focus if they know
the last few slides are shown.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Remove footer logo}
If you wish to remove the footer logo \emph{and}
move the page number to the right parts use:
\begin{verbatim}
\usetheme[nofooterlogo]{pureminimalistic}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Change Page word}
If you wish to remove or change the word \emph{Page}
in the footer, change the value with
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand{\pageword}{Seite}
\end{verbatim}
\end{frame}
\section{Citations}
\begin{frame}{Citations}
I've also changed the bibliography options to be minimalistic:
Just showing a simple \texttt{\textbackslash{}cite} \cite{AlexNet}
\vfill
\printbibliography
\end{frame}
\appendix % do not count the following slides for the total number
\section*{Backup Slides}
\begin{frame}[plain, noframenumbering]
\centering
\vfill
{\fontsize{40}{50}\selectfont Backup Slides}
\vfill
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{What happened to the page numbering?}
\begin{itemize}
\item I've used the \texttt{appendixnumberbeamer}
package, which resets the frame counting after calling
\texttt{\textbackslash{}appendix}
\item Depending on the used pdf viewer, the total
count of frames shouldn't include the backup slides and
won't demotivate the audience.
\item Usually, I would use a \texttt{plain} frame
for the backup slides.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
