The codename gives it away: novathesis now supports a school outside Portugal.
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin
other/huberlin brings the cover, logo and accent colour of the official
Berlin title page, for every document type and language the template already
knows:
\ntsetup{school=other/huberlin}
It is also the only cover that prints the author's date and place of birth, via
the new \SetAuthorBirthDate* and \SetAuthorBirthPlace* commands. They are
no-ops everywhere else, so nothing changes for other schools.
Three smaller additions
Appendix labels in the heading. \ntsetup{print/appendixname=true} puts
"Appendix" or "Annex" in front of the chapter number in the heading itself, not
only in the PDF bookmarks. Each bundled chapter style places the label where
its own layout wants it, so it looks native rather than bolted on.
Skip a list without deleting it. \ntsetup{listof/skip={listoftables,listoflistings}}
turns off individual list of… entries — figures, tables, algorithms,
listings, or your own — without commenting out the \ntaddlistof line in
0-Config/6_list_of.tex. glossaries works there too, as a friendlier
spelling of print/glossaries=false.
See every chapter style before choosing one. A demo chapter now cycles
through all the bundled chapter styles and the standard memoir ones, a short
chapter each, so you can compare them side by side. It lives in
3-BackMatter/app-chapter-styles-showcase.tex and is commented out in
0-Config/4_files.tex — uncomment it, build, pick a style/chapter, comment
it out again.
And one for school maintainers
Schools can now declare which degrees they actually offer, with
\AddValidDegree. Choosing a doctype a school does not run gives a clear error
instead of quietly producing a mismatched cover. It is wired up for the 32
schools with a real restriction; everyone else is unaffected.
The full list is in the changelog.
