# [Gotham](https://gitlab.com/RomainNOEL/beamertheme-gotham) announcement
The `Gotham` package is a modern, minimal-ish, versatile and extendable theme
for your `Beamer` presentations using `LaTeX(3)`. `Gotham` tries to bring higher
flexibility thanks to `LaTeX3` implementation on top of the good-looking
`Metropolis` theme.
## Version: 1.2.1.c Date: 2025-02-11
### Fixes
- spacing vertical and horizontal between subsections toc.
- spacing vertical for sections with `gotham bullet` toc leading to an error with `minted` package ([https://gitlab.com/RomainNOEL/beamertheme-gotham/-/issues/4]).
- use of `minted` instead of `listings` for code highlighting in examples.
### News
- add `\partpageOptions`, `\sectionpageOptions`, `\subsectionpageOptions`, `\subsubsectionpageOptions` controlling the frame options of parts and sections pages...
- add `\partpageTocOptions`, `\sectionpageTocOptions`, `\subsectionpageTocOptions`, `\subsubsectionpageTocOptions` controlling the frame options of the table of contents for parts and sections...

Fr. Samuel Springuel submitted an update to the
gregoriotex
package.
Version: 6.1.0-beta1
License: gpl3
Summary description: Engraving Gregorian Chant scores
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release is intended for the TeX Live 2025 Pretest.
### Fixed
- Multiple Scribus render frames were all using the same file name, which would result in the same score appearing in all render frames. This change makes the score files use an available Scribus variable to force multiple file names.
- When kpsewhich cannot write to a particular location, it generates an error which is directed to stderr but not to our glog file. This created an undocumented error when trying to write to a gtex file to a bad location. We now capture stderr output produced when compiling scores and redirect it to our glog file so that the error is properly recorded. Fixes [#1541](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1541).
- Fixed the interaction between hyphens and styles. See [#1538](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1538).
- Fixed the loss of ongoing styles when a syllable starts with a forced center. See [#1551](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1551).
- Fixed first syllables of one letter with a style causing a segfault. See [#1585](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1585).
- Fixed a bug that caused a custos to sometimes change into a clef. See [#1373](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1373).
- Fixed the alignment of 2-line initials so that an initial's baseline more exactly aligns with the baseline of the lowest line it appears next to.
- When fancyhdr and GregorioTeX are used together, GregorioTeX's disabling of hyphenation and its `post_linebreak` modification of the `post_linebreak_filter` interfere with multiline headers. Using the `fancyhdr/before` and `fancyhdr/after` hooks we temporarily reenable hyphenation and disable our `post_linebreak` modification while headers and footers are being processed in the middle of a score. See [#1603](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1603).
### Changed
- Modified gregorio to append to the log file specified as an argument and to send early messages to it. See [#1541](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1541).
- Defined an output directory for gtex and glog files. Default is `tmp-gre`. This can be changed using `\gresetoutputdir{...}`. Fixes [#1393](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1393), [#1542](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1542), and [#1571](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1571).
- gabc.vim has been expanded into a proper vim plugin.
### Added
- Added a configurable setting `\gresetunisonbreakbehavior` to control automatic line breaks between unison notes above a syllable. Defaults to `breakable` for backwards compatibility, but may be set to `unbreakable` if that behavior is desired. See [#1504](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1504).
- Added the ability to fuse upwards to a virga. See [#1558](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1558)
- Added the ability to use the "stroke" form of a clivis instead of the default two-notes form by specifying `[shape:stroke]` after the clivis to change. See [#1558](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1558)
- Allow `\gresetinitiallines{n}` where `n` is any number of lines (a non-negative integer). The manual linebreaks (`z`) that used to be required for 2-line initials are no longer required. See [#1488](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1488). Added new options `\gresetinitialanchor` and `\gresetinitialposition` to control the placement of initials.
- Added new alterations: soft flat (X) and sharp (##), which appear when there is no previous flat or sharp (respectively) in effect, and soft natural (Y), which appears when there is a previous flat or sharp in effect. A new option `\gresetalterationeffect` determines what the "effect" of an alteration is. It defaults to `line`, which is useful for Dominican chant. See [#157](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/157) and also [#1575](https://github.com/gregorio-project/gregorio/issues/1575).
- 9 new St. Gall neume glyphs have been added to the `gregall` font.
