I was wondering how this kind of slide is made in the beamer. I wonder how the background is set. Also how the heading is set?    Any thoughts? It seems like we can use any image we want to set in the background perhaps.

I successfully use the usebackgroundtemplate command to set a background image for a specific slide in Beamer as follows    \documentclass{beamer} \mode&lt;presentation&gt; { \usetheme{CambridgeUS} }  \begin{document}  \usebackgroundtemplate{%   \includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{example-image-a}}   \begin{frame}[t] \frametitle{hello} blahblah \end{frame}  \end{document}    However, the image seems to have just covered the main body area, the background of the \frametitle is still white as before. How could I set this image as background for the entire slide? Or at least for the \frametitle as well (just for the slides I want, not for the entire presentation)? Or any better solutions?

I want to put all math mode in a color, for example, red. But I don't know how to do that. In this web I found how to do it, but in Beamer, I want do it too in Article, Book, etc.  Thanks for your time.

I have to prepare my slides in latex. A quick search came up with different packages. Before start preparing, I need your experiences. I do not want to regret after learning one as I did, learning vim (now can not quit) instead of emacs.  EDIT: After asking this question at that time, I start learning Beamer. Now I'm really happy with that, I created my own template and now it's easier just copying from my .tex files to beamer template. I recommend beamer for powerpoint users who are actively using latex .

I find this classic figure of LaTeX's page geometry very helpful:     Source:   Now, I am fiddling with some beamer slides and I could really use such an overview of beamer's slide layout. Does it exist anywhere? I have not been able to find it...  For now, I need it to figure out how to get the height of a frame's body.

I use beamer with the theme AnnArbor and colortheme whale.  I tried to use:  \setbeamercolor{section in head/foot}{fg=white, bg=blue}   or  \setbeamercolor{palette tertiary}{fg=white, bg=blue}   But for an unknown reason, the bg works but not the fg... The sections names stay black in the header.    EDIT : the problem comes from the hyperref package.  This code works well :  \documentclass{beamer} \usetheme{AnnArbor} \usecolortheme{whale} \setbeamercolor{frametitle}{fg=white,bg=blue}  \begin{document}     \section{Test 1}     \subsection{Test 1.1}     \begin{frame}         \frametitle{Test}     \end{frame} \end{document}   Whereas this one doesn't works :  \documentclass{beamer} \usetheme{AnnArbor} \usecolortheme{whale} \setbeamercolor{frametitle}{fg=white,bg=blue} \usepackage{hyperref} \hypersetup{     colorlinks=true,     linkcolor=black,     urlcolor=blue,     citecolor=gray,     frenchlinks=false,     pdfborder={0 0 0} }  \begin{document}     \section{Test 1}     \subsection{Test 1.1}     \begin{frame}         \frametitle{Test}     \end{frame} \end{document}   And that's pretty normal because of this line :  linkcolor=black,

In a beamer presentation, is it possible to zoom in on an image to make it full screen and if possible to highlight (something like illuminating a part of picture by bright light while other areas of the slide fade ) the desired location on the image?

Can anyone give me a list of the different styles of bullets in beamer?  I am looking for the command that will give me the typical 3d looking blue ball in a block I know where to input it in my  \item [\...?....]  I think I'm looking for \usepackage{boadilla} but i don't know how to get this.   help a newbie out?

I am new to Beamer and LaTeX itself. Right now, I want to create a simple slide with an image on the right and text and the sidebar (using the Hannover theme) on the left. I cannot figure out how to do that. Any suggestions?

I am trying to achieve the same thing as in  but using the Berlin theme, namely, I want to have a "Conclusion" slide at the end that does not appear in the top navigation panel.  By putting it in an empty-titled section as per the accepted answer I have succeeded in making it not appear as an additional slide in the last section. However, when the "Conclusion" slide is displayed, the navigation button to the first slide of the last section is highlighted (but the name of the section isn't). I would like to stop it, so that nothing in the top panel is highlighted when the "Conclusion" slide is displayed.  \documentclass{beamer}  \usetheme{Berlin}  \begin{document}      \begin{frame}         \titlepage     \end{frame}      \begin{frame}{Introduction}     \end{frame}      \begin{frame}{Outline}         \tableofcontents[pausesections]     \end{frame}      \section{Context}     \begin{frame}{Context}     \end{frame}      \section{Development}     \begin{frame}{Development}     \end{frame}      \section{Results}     \begin{frame}{Results}     \end{frame}     \begin{frame}{More results}     \end{frame}      \section{}     \begin{frame}{Conclusion}     \end{frame}  \end{document}

I am trying to make something similar to this?  Obviously it's possible to make it manually piece by piece, but I am looking for some kind of automated feature in Illustrator to achieve this?  Is this possible?  Thanks man in advance!

I created a presentation using the beamer class with texmaker. Right now it looks like this:    Now I would like to include a jpg where the red circle is located, so basically inside a palette. Can anybody help me how to do that?

I have seen an image with this background. As a newbie I am unable to get this multi colored mixed background. I am able to get just two colors and that too linearly with the Blend Tool. But that doesn't look like this at all. Can some one please suggest me on how to achieve this in GIMP or in Photoshop?

I'm trying to use an image as a background for Beamer presentation according to  post.  However, I do not want the image spanning the entire background. Thus, I'm doing something like:  \usebackgroundtemplate{% \centering \hspace{4.5cm} \includegraphics[width=1.5in]{image.jpeg} }   The \hspace command works, but \vspace does not work. Basically, I'm trying to get the image to be at the center of the page. Any ideas on how this can be done?

What is the name for these type of images? I love these kind of graphics and it's so flat which totally matches my current product development.      Do we have a name for it? A name will make it easier to search for examples and how to's.

I have vector graphic created with Adobe Illustrator CS4 saved as PDF, it looks like:    You can download the PDF .  As you can see, the lines are black.    If I include the PDF with \includegraphics in a beamer document which has a changed foreground color, all lines of my graphic get colored in that color!  \documentclass{beamer} \usepackage{graphicx} \setbeamercolor{normal text}{bg=white,fg=red} \begin{document} \begin{frame} \includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{dummy.pdf} \end{frame} \end{document}     Oh yes, that's unexpected.   What goes wrong? Is that really intended behaviour?  How do I get my lines black again?  If it's a problem related to the graphicx package, I'd prefer a solution by that package. But a beamer workaround would be fine as well. I tried to locally set  \setbeamercolor{normal text}{bg=white,fg=black}   but it does not have any effect. Also I need the foreground color as it is (non-black), just the graphic should be affected by the change.
