Gemini currently includes three color themes:
default
gemini
mit
labsix
With gemini
color theme, user now have the freedom the custom define their color schemes.
To define a custom scheme, put set following color names to the desired colors before the command
\usecolortheme{gemini}
:
\definecolor{accentcolor}{RGB}{62, 138, 189}
\definecolor{textcolor}{0, 0, 0}
\definecolor{bgcolor}{RGB}{255, 255, 255}
Additionally the following colors will by default be a mixture of the three colors defined above, but it is also possible to override those preset mixing rules:
\definecolor{lighttextcolor}{RGB}{215, 217, 218}
\definecolor{darkbgcolor}{RGB}{19, 76, 113}
Alternative to \definecolor
command, \colorlet
command can also be used to define color using
those already defined colors, either simply aliasing or a mixing of some colors.
The alternative themes are intended to be inspiration for you to make your own color theme. You're highly recommended to make your own color theme (it's really easy!) or use the default Gemini theme.
- Minimal: clean and easy to read, so that the emphasis is on the content
- Batteries included: works and looks good out of the box
- Easy theming: easy to create and use a new color theme
Contributions to Gemini such as bug reports, new themes, and new poster components are greatly appreciated! Given the subjective nature of design, you're encouraged to open an issue or pull request early to get feedback before investing a lot of time in implementing a new feature.
