Because they are separate from the frames preceding them, they should be numbered separately. This is helpful for, for example, users of PdfPC which will autodetect slides based on page number.

Thanks for the request. I understand the reason you might want to have this behavior, but I am not convinced it should be the default. I'm not quite sure what you mean by pdfpc not autodetecting slides, but I'm guessing you mean that it doesn't increment the frame count when traversing a standout page. But this is exactly the right behavior, I think (as long as you think it's correct to not count them as frames, which I think is debatable). In any case, I don't want to introduce a change that breaks the slide counts of everyone who has interleaved their slides with standout frames, but I would be happy to introduce this as an opt-in. But in that case I think the number should be visible as well, at least by default, or what did you have in mind?

I should have been more clear, sorry!

Yes, my issue is that they are not numbered on their own. I see that some may not consider them as their own frames, but I definitely think they are. Being able to opt-in to the behavior of treating them as their own frame would be exactly what I would want.

I think that including the frame number by default is (mostly) reasonable, but would appreciate being able to easily disable that.

Something like a tristate setting might make sense:

  • standoutownframe=false would be the present behavior
  • standoutownframe=true would count them as their own frame and show the frame number
  • standoutownframe=nonum would count them as their own frame and show no number

Thank you for the theme!

Thanks! I settled for something slightly different, with standoutnumbering=none/hide/show, but essentially the same behavior. Please try it out and see if this works as you want it to or otherwise feel free to re-open.
