Hi there!

I would like Modus Themes to enlarge titles but not headings in the Org
mode.  I tried to set 'modus-themes-headings' but it always makes both
the titles and the headings larger.  Any ideas?

(I think enlarging just the titles makes for a natural default.  Unlike
the headings, which in the Org mode play too many roles, the titles have
exactly one, well-defined purpose, namely to give the document a title.)

P.S. I used 'describe-char' to look at the faces and found that Org uses
a dedicated face, called 'org-document-title', for the titles.

Thank you!

Rudy

Good point!  I think our two options are:

1. Update the 'modus-themes-headings' to accept a 'title' entry in
   addition to the numbered headings.

2. Document how the user can change the 'org-document-title' face
   locally.

For case 1 the title will accept all the styles we already provide.  I
think they are all suitable, perhaps with the exception of the overline.

Case 2 may be difficult for some users.  It also is harder to discover,
as it will be included somewhere in the manual's "do-it-yourself"
sections.

What do you think?

All the best,
Prot

Hello again!

I decided to go with option 1.  This is the commit I just pushed.

    commit 2860a94f78154dfdd0b2d01bdf0af7992195f34c
    Author: Protesilaos Stavrou <info@protesilaos.com>

        Set org-document-title via modus-themes-headings

        The user option 'modus-themes-headings' now reads a level 0 heading.  It
        accepts the same list of properties as all other levels.  Currently only
        the Org document title is covered, but we may cover more faces if need
        be.

        Sample:

            (setq modus-themes-headings
                  '((0 . (variable-pitch light (height 1.9)))
                    (1 . (variable-pitch light (height 1.6) overline))
                    (2 . (variable-pitch regular (height 1.4) overline))
                    (3 . (variable-pitch regular (height 1.3) overline))
                    (4 . (rainbow (height 1.2)))
                    (5 . (rainbow (height 1.1)))
                    (t . (variable-pitch extrabold (height 1.05)))))

        Read the documentation of 'modus-themes-headings' for the technicalities.

        Thanks to Rudolf Adamkovič for proposing the idea on the mailing list:
        <https://lists.sr.ht/~protesilaos/modus-themes/%3Cm2y1x5tewl.fsf@me.com%3E>.

        Given this change, I am also tweaking the default foreground value of
        the org-document-title.  It is a bit more saturated, but remains close
        to the spirit of the previous one.

And it works beautifully!  Thank you, Prot.
