Overlay image to fullscreen but want to type on top of slide

Post by ronandownes »

Overlaying text on full screen beamer image and forcing the header to be seen.

I use

\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture,overlay]\node[at=(current page.center)]{\includegraphics[width=1\paperwidth]
{snags/252.jpg}};\end{tikzpicture}\end{frame}





to take over the entire frame but I would prefer if the beamer template header were seen for presentation continuity and that I could overlay text.

Is it possible?

Regards and thanks in advance.

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
