# Trigon theme ![Pipeline status](https://gitlab.com/thlamb/beamertheme-trigon/badges/master/pipeline.svg) _A modern, elegant and versatile theme for Beamer._ [![Demo][demo-shield]][demo-url] [![Documentation][docs-shield]][docs-url] **Trigon** found its origin and inspiration in the graphical guidelines resulting from the visual identity overhaul of the [University of Liège](https://www.uliege.be/cms/c_9247131/en/a-new-visual-identity). Although directly inspired from these guidelines, the theme was stripped out of any mention or specificities related the University and its faculties. This makes the **Trigon** theme perfectly suitable for many different contexts. The final product provides a modern, elegant and versatile theme with a high degree of customization. The main design focuses on triangular shapes for major layout elements and noise minimization for the main body of the work. The theme will be made available directly from CTAN and Overleaf once finished (hopefully). Feature requests, issues and pull requests are welcome. ## Features - Multiple style variations for title, section and regular slides - Many convenient options (numbering style, toggle section slides, title font changes,...) - Looks better on 16:9 format, but supports 4:3 as well - Lightweight (does not require lots of additional packages) - Similar options than with [Metropolis theme](https://github.com/matze/mtheme) ## Note - This theme works best using the `sourcesanspro` font package, which is loaded by default. As some users may not want to load additional packages or want to use other fonts, the package can be disabled using the option `usesourcefonts=false`. ## Screenshots Default Style | Example alternative style ----------------------------------------|--------------------------------------- ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo-01.jpg) | ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo_alt-01.jpg) ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo-03.jpg) | ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo_alt-03.jpg) ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo-04.jpg) | ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo_alt-04.jpg) ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo-07.jpg) | ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo_alt-07.jpg) ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo-09.jpg) | ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo_alt-09.jpg) ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo-13.jpg) | ![](./screenshots/trigon_demo_alt-13.jpg) ## Installation ## Usage See [the package documentation][docs-url] for a detailed view of the package options. ## Contributing All contributions to this theme are welcomed, whereas in the form of issue report, feature requests or pull requests.
