Beamer: image under text

Post by stinkinrich88 »

Hello,

How can I include an image in my beamer slide so that it is under the text? I want it at the bottom of the page, but I don't want it to affect the position of the text at all.

Thanks,

Rich

Seems to me like you want some kind of logo. If so, the beamer manual describes how achieve that.


Best regards

Hello,

The logo thing puts the image on all pages. I only want the image on one frame. The closes I can get is using the textpos package (or using this command:

Code: Select all

\newcommand{\putat}[3]{\begin{picture}(0,0)(0,0)\put(#1,#2){#3}\end{picture}}
Found from this page: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@l ... 45340.html

But both of those solutions put the image over the text. I can't find a way to have them under the text (but still visible)

actually, if I use the code I posted in my last reply in my preamble, I can use the following command to position the image:

Code: Select all

\putat{-100}{-150}{\includegraphics[scale=0.6]{graphics/WiFi.pdf}}
And the following command to position text over the image:

Code: Select all

\putat{-100}{-70}{hello there!}
I can just manually adjust the position of the text to match where it would've been originally.

Cheers!

Rich
