Count

The option count refers to the counter in the top right corner of the slides. If it is a type of dot counter, note that you can click on the dots to jump to the respective slide!

"dot" is the default:

Dot default

In longer presentations, these dots can flow over. In this case, using "dot-section" is preferred, as it only displays dots for the slides in the current section. You can click the small triangles to jump to the next / preceding section slide

Dot section

If even that is too long or you just want a simple page counter, use "number":

Number

or completely remove it with none.

Title color

Its advisable to choose a darker color (you can always darken a color in typst, e.g rgb("#ff851b").darken(50%)) as its supposed to contrast with the background. The default is a dark blue, but feel free to match your preferred style.
