v2.1.2 - Bold slide counters and README refresh

Slide counters

• Rendered the top-right progress frame number with \bfseries, matching the
  black bold face used by slide titles and emphasized text when
  Rounded-X Mgen+ 1cp is available.
• Kept the progress-circle layout unchanged while making the displayed number
  visually consistent across the Japanese and English templates.

Table of contents

• Applied the same bold face to projected section numbers in automatic
  table-of-contents slides.
• Preserved the existing projected-number size so the circular markers keep
  their original fit.

README

• Updated the README description to mention the bold progress and section
  numbers.
• Regenerated the README screenshots from the updated PDFs at 300 dpi.
• Added the English title and contents screenshots to the README preview block
  so the updated section-number markers are visible in the documentation.

Compatibility

This is a patch release. No macro names or slide-source changes are required
for existing decks.

v2.1.1 — Typography and inline arrow spacing fixes

Slide typography

• Restored the heavier look of slide titles, frame titles, and emphasized text
  by pinning Rounded-X Mgen+ 1cp to its medium face for regular text and
  black face for bold text.
• Kept the existing Rounded-X Mgen+ 1cp font family and Beamer font settings,
  while making the selected weights deterministic across environments.
• Explicitly maps italic and bold-italic requests back to the matching upright
  rounded-gothic faces, avoiding accidental fallback to thinner faces.

Inline arrows

• Fixed missing spacing before inline arrow macros in Japanese text.
• Updated \arrow, \whitearrow, and \arrowdown to reuse xeCJK's
  \CJKecglue, so arrow spacing follows \xeCJKsetup{CJKecglue=...} and
  \CJKsetecglue.
• Updated the Japanese and English sample slides to use the spacing-aware arrow
  macro directly.

README screenshots

• Regenerated README screenshots from the updated PDFs at 300 dpi.
• Refreshed the Japanese title slide, English title slide, and English sample
  slide images under .github/readme-assets/.

Compatibility

This is a patch release. Existing macro names are unchanged; the arrow macros
now include their own inline spacing so Japanese and English text render
consistently.

Prebuilt PDFs (slide-ja.pdf / slide-en.pdf) are attached by CI.

v2.1.0 — Japanese template parity and CI smoke checks

Japanese template polish

• Removed parenthesized English names from the Japanese sample slides where the
  Japanese terms are sufficient on their own.
• Kept Japanese body emphasis aligned with the English template by preserving
  the shared \boldcolor{...} emphasis macro.
• Matched the Japanese closing slide's top-spacing logic to the English
  template (\aauheaderheight + 20pt), so both templates use the same layout
  calibration.
• Bibliography content and the References frame remain in English.

CI smoke checks

• Added a structure-parity check for the Japanese and English templates:
  sections, frames, column/block environments, overlay commands, frame labels,
  and closing-slide spacing must stay aligned.
• Added PDF output validation after both templates build: generated PDFs must
  exist, have the same page count, and share the same page size.
• Added render validation with Poppler (pdftoppm) so every generated PDF page
  must be rasterizable in CI.
• Uploads the built PDFs, LaTeX logs, and rendered page PNGs as workflow
  artifacts for pull-request review.
• Updated the official checkout/upload/download artifact actions to current
  Node 24-compatible major versions.
• Pinned the macOS build runner to macos-15 for more reproducible TeX builds.

Release workflow

• Release creation is split into its own tag-only job with write permissions,
  while normal build checks run with read-only repository permissions.
• Tag builds now sync release notes from .github/release-notes/<tag>.md when
  a matching file exists, then attach slide-ja.pdf and slide-en.pdf.

Compatibility

No breaking changes are expected for existing decks. This is a minor release
because it improves template parity and release/CI validation without changing
the public LaTeX macro API.

Prebuilt PDFs (slide-ja.pdf / slide-en.pdf) are attached by CI.

v2.0.3 — Rename Japanese-reading and cryptic macro names to English

Macro API cleanup

• Renamed Japanese-reading (romaji) badge macros to English in both templates, and made every badge macro consistently end in badge:
  \rei -> \examplebadge, \chu -> \notebadge, \mon -> \questionbadge, \hatten -> \advancedbadge, \ari -> \templatebadge, \nashi -> \notemplatebadge, \hoshin -> \policybadge, \kotae -> \answerbadge, \fukushu -> \reviewbadge.
  The Japanese template's rendered badge text (例/注/問/...) is unchanged — only the macro names changed, so both templates now share the same English macro names.
• Renamed the remaining Japanese-reading macros: \ya/\wya/\yaa (矢) -> \arrow/\whitearrow/\arrowdown, \sage (下げ) -> \lowered.
• Spelled out other short/cryptic abbreviations for clarity:
  \bc/\br/\ub/\uk -> \boldcolor/\boldred/\underbold/\redstrike,
  \pb/\pf -> \nobreakbox/\footnotebox, \fc -> \captionchip,
  \ex/\exw/\exq -> \exclaim/\exclaimwhite/\exclaimquestion,
  \circref/\circnum/\tritem -> \circleref/\circlenum/\trianglebullet,
  \ddash -> \emdash, \mathittext -> \mathitalic, \myarc -> \anglearc,
  \whline -> \thickhline, \defqe/\deflra/\defsse -> \eqdef/\defiff/\defsubseteq.

Prebuilt PDFs (slide-ja.pdf / slide-en.pdf) are attached by CI.

v2.0.2 — Polish sample text and macro names

Sample deck polish

• Removed terminal punctuation from the goal-graph introduction item in both templates.
• Added sentence-ending punctuation inside the goal-graph footnotes: Japanese footnotes now end with 。, and English footnotes end with periods.
• Kept slide titles bold through the existing Beamer font settings, and kept body emphasis on the template emphasis macro.

Macro API cleanup

• Lowercased template-provided author-facing commands, for example \BC -> \bc, \BR -> \br, \YA -> \ya, \PB -> \pb, \FC -> \fc, \GO -> \go, \DDASH -> \ddash, and \EX -> \ex.
• Lowercased customization hooks such as \aauEmail, \aauLogo, and \aauEvent to \aauemail, \aaulogo, and \aauevent.
• Renamed the old uppercase node/connector helpers to clearer lowercase names: \marknode, \marknodered, \marknodegreen, \marknodeblue, \marknodeyellow, and \connectnodes.

Documentation

• Updated the per-template READMEs to use the new lowercase customization commands.

Prebuilt PDFs (slide-ja.pdf / slide-en.pdf) are attached by CI.

v2.0.0 — Switchable color themes

Switchable color themes

The color scheme is no longer hardcoded: pick a theme with a single line in
the preamble of slide.tex.

\usepackage{slidestyle}
\slidetheme{agu} % omit for the default (oxford)

Theme	Base	Accent
oxford (default)	Oxford Blue #002147	Cerulean Blue #49B6FF
agu	Aoyama Gakuin dark green #025F3D	blue-green #00A384
cambridge	Dark Teal #133844	Cambridge Blue #8EE8D8
mit	MIT Red #A31F34	Silver Gray #8A8B8C
princeton	Black #000000	Princeton Orange #E77500

All values come from each university's official palette; the Aoyama Gakuin
pair is measured from its official logo assets (no published color codes
exist). Adding a theme takes two \definecolor lines
(<name>Primary / <name>Accent) in §2 of slidestyle.sty.

Breaking changes

• Default look changed from Aoyama Gakuin dark green to Oxford Blue.
  Use \slidetheme{agu} to restore the previous colors (now corrected to
  the official values, so they differ slightly from v1.0.0).
• Color names agu / agu2 removed — decks that referenced them
  should use themeprimary / themeaccent instead.
• Color name kenbridge renamed to cambridge (correct spelling).
• The sample deck's "Review" section is now "Math Environments",
  reflecting its intent as a math-environment showcase.

Layout

• The "# event name" ribbon on the title page is smaller
  (\footnotesize), and the title block is re-centered accordingly.

Documentation

• New "Theme colors" section in the root README, with refreshed
  screenshots showing the Oxford default.
• Per-template READMEs (ja/en) document the switching mechanism.

Prebuilt PDFs (slide-ja.pdf / slide-en.pdf) are attached by CI.

v1.0.0

Note

First release. Built PDFs are attached below so you can preview both templates without a TeX installation.

Highlights

First release of the XeLaTeX + Beamer slide templates (16:9): a dark-green theme with a header band, a circular progress indicator, and a full set of sample slides — available as two frame-for-frame parallel variants, Japanese and English.

Two parallel templates

• tex/template-ja/ and tex/template-en/ mirror each other frame for frame, so you can pick a language per talk and still keep one shared look.
• Copy the whole folder to start a new talk and edit the "presentation info" block at the top of slide.tex; latexmk builds everything with XeLaTeX + bibtex.

Theme and feature samples

• Header band with author, e-mail, and title on every slide. The e-mail placeholder stays unlinked; replacing it with a real address (containing @) activates the mailto link automatically.
• Progress circle in the top-right corner shows the current frame number over an arc that fills as the talk advances.
• Sample slides double as a feature catalog: emphasis macros, badges, block environments (incl. exercise/assignment), keystroke rendering, jump buttons, a staged TikZ goal-graph, and superscript citations that list only cited entries in the References frame.
