[ Help ] Styling a title

[XanderLeaDaren]

Explanation of what you would try to achieve
Style the Heading of a frame, to be either bold, italics, small-caps, of other size, &c, for every type of declared frame.

What have you tried so far?

• change the frame-style, or the styles.boxy, but I couldn’t find where to look (relatively new to Typst, maybe that’s why!)
• manually change the styling like in the following section:

Code sample

#import "@preview/frame-it:2.0.0": *
#let (example,) = frames(example: ("", rgb("eaeaea")))
#show: frame-style(styles.boxy)
#example(numbering:none)[#text(10pt)[*Heading*]][
  Content
]

How would you have expected it to work?
Add a line in the definitions, like the following
#show frame-style-boxy.title: smallcaps
or
#show frame-it.where(frame-style: boxy): title => {strong(title)}

Thanks for the issue! It made me discover a new idea myself :)

Styling the specific parts with show-rules is not possible. I don't support the specific show rules that you mentioned in your issue because that would open up a lot of points of customization and I don't really want to go down that road with the package.

However, You can probably get quite far by wrapping the predefined styles. For example, you can make the title italic by redefining

#let italic-boxy(title, ..args) = (styles.boxy)(text(style: "italic", title), ..args)
#show: frame-style(italic-boxy)

What is happening here is that first, the italic-boxy function is invoked, which constructs the italic title and now passes that along with all other args to the underlying boxy style. For reference, the function signature of a styling function must look like thisid

#let custom-styling(title, tags, body, supplement, number, arg)

Also for reference, here are the definitions of the original styling functions.
Here is the point where the boxy style is defined. It is a little convoluted between between the html and the paged version. However, the same points exist for the hint style and the thmbox.
