In no particular order, and in comparison to the demo.tex-based demo.pdf of the LaTeX variant:

• Libertinus font requirement currently a hard constraint, might be nicer to make it soft ie warn but proceed rather than fail
• Title changed to not be on dark background, could make that a toggle in YAML header
• Table of content line and paragraph breaks look different
• Need to find a trick to do the \item[] placement in one of the examples
• Make the header.png file an option for the YAML header

Hi.

I noticed a problem with presento theme when printing a data.frame with knitr::kable.

I have just added this code to the presento theme template:

# Print data frame

```{r}
data(mtcars, "ggplot2")
knitr::kable(mtcars)
```

Error message:

! File ended while scanning use of \@tempa.
<inserted text> 
                \par

I find your package very useful. Thank you very much.

However, it seems like there is an issue with presento output.

Please address it. I am sharing reproducible code below:

In no particular order, and in comparison to the upstream repo:

• Full color pages :-( (as also noted in #1); this may need some pandoc and or beamer changes
• Examples are pretty heavy on LaTeX; Markdown has e.g. no centering feature
• Maybe offer default fonts? OTOH Presento is pretty tied to its set

We had a few nice PRs by @robjhyndman @jolars @jsta so the time may be right for a 0.0.4 rollup and release. Any objections, anyone? Paging @izahn and @robjhyndman in particular ...

Hi!
I'm right now creating my slides with

output: 
  bookdown::beamer_presentation2:
    keep_tex: yes
    theme: metropolis
    latex_engine: xelatex
    slide_level: 2
    incremental: no
    includes: 
      in_header: top-matter.tex
classoption: aspectratio=169
fontsize: 12pt

in my YAML, it would be nice to automatize this, but I binb doesn't use bookdown, right?
There are many advantages in the bookdown flavor of rmarkdown including numbering and cross-referencing figures/tables/sections/equations

I'm also including some hacks in the tex files that could be included in binb, see https://bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown-cookbook/multi-column.html

What do you think? Should I do pull request with all these changes?

Now that the IQSS theme no longer has a hard dependency on Libertinus fonts it can be moved to the vignettes directory. Maybe a good idea to wait to move it until the demo is cleaned up: IQSS/iqss-beamer-theme#19

Possibly brandnew and/or temporary, but all of a sudden one of the CRAN check machines now whines about missing cross refrences:

Version: 0.0.5
Check: Rd cross-references
Result: NOTE
Undeclared packages ‘tint’, ‘pinp’, ‘linl’ in Rd xrefs
Flavor: r-devel-linux-x86_64-fedora-clang

As a result the 0.0.6 currently being processed enters a 'is pending a manual inspection'. We should free ourselves and CRAN from this. It is simply due a block in the Rd file from

##'
##' @seealso Three other packages also offer RMarkdown interfaces to LaTeX
##' (or HTML) content: \code{\link[tint]{tint}} for Tufte-style pdf and html,
##' \code{\link[pinp]{pinp}} for two-column pdf vignettes, and
##' \code{\link[linl]{linl}} for LaTeX letters.
##'

and I suggest we just nix it and remove it. Screw See also. Or maybe change \code{\link[xxx]{xxx}} to just \code{xxx} for the three packages?

Thoughts? Preferences?

In no particular order:

• add a vignette / demo i.e. something longer than the skeleton
• document the options
• make monashwhite the default?
• make the defaults more sensible, i.e. currently several of the options in the yaml header in skeleton.Rmd (e.g. fontsize, titlefontsize, compress) are more or less mandatory
• add skeleton.Rmd based demo to README.md, expand README.md
• possible make titlepage.png the value of variable set in YAML to override default
• more flexible font setup, maybe bera as fallback for carlito ?

Add more items as needed.

Receiving an error on previously working code when calling binb::metropolis in RMarkdown or directly in R:

metropolis()
Error in match.arg(citation_package) : 'arg' must be of length 1

I'm unable to figure out how to pass an argument for citation_package="none" in the RMarkdown YAML header. Suspect it may be the default value for citation_package

The MWE in the readme for binb::metropolis does not work for me (R 4.02; binb_0.0.6)

I am not entirely sure where the bug is, but it seems like no matter what we set as the date in the YAML header, Presento always prints the date as if it were \today. Even if we set it to NULL or an empty string "".

I had a quick look at the pandoc template but didn't spot anything obvious.

In no particular order, and in comparison to the demo.tex-based demo.pdf of the LaTeX variant:

• No standout pages :-( which is a bummer and possibly hard to adjust due to how we get from new Markdown slide entry to \begin{frame} ... \end{frame}
• Table of contents page has no header
• References page has no header (but we changed things anyway with natbib use)
• Metropolis has a bazillion (nice) options which we should support from YAML metadata where useful and sensible

@robjhyndman has some snazzy Beamer theming here: https://github.com/robjhyndman/MonashEBSTemplates

Recent example: https://github.com/robjhyndman/Writing-seminar/blob/master/Writing.pdf

When I glanced at the source it revealed itself as another Metropolis variant so it would fit here. Style file looks small and clean. Have not checked if it needs additional fonts, but that would be a bridge we have crossed before :)

@izahn Thoughts?

@robjhyndman Any thoughts or concerns from your end? Here in binb we mostly care about the Beamer side of things.

Using example code provided in package
