be a cleaner approach./PA On Sun, 2 Nov 2025 at 18:36, Ihor Radchenko <[email protected]> wrote: > Pedro Andres Aranda Gutierrez <[email protected]> writes: > > > The translation of *test* in the beamer backend is “quite hardoceded” to > \alert… > > To circumvent this you have to provide LaTeX code to produce something > different from the default(which is red and that is suboptimal for > readability because it is not daltonic-friendly). > > Maybe we should think about a custom variable to override the default > setting. > > AFAIU, beamer itself suggest using \alert to highlight text.
