beamer - logo on title page top left

Post by herbststurm »

Hello folks,

I made my presentation in LaTeX with the beamer class.

Only on the title page I want the logo of my university top left.

This code only set the logo central :(

Code: Select all

\titlegraphic{\includegraphics[width=2cm,height=2cm]{uni-logo}}
My header is the following:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[smaller, ngerman, notheorems]{beamer}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
%jkcommands anfang
\usepackage[pdftex]{color}
% AMS-Pakete für Mathe
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{dsfont}
\usepackage{trsym}
\usepackage{pifont}
\input{jkcommands.tex}
%jkcommands ende
%Neue Schrift Anfang
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{phv} % Arial
\renewcommand{\sfdefault}{phv} % Arial
%Neue Schrift Ende
\usetheme{Marburg}

\institute{Institution}
\title{The Title
\author{The Authos(s)}
\date{July 01, 2010}
Thank you for help

greetings from Germany

beamer - logo on title page top left

Hi,

one option would be to use the textpos package to place the logo, as the following simple example illustrates:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[smaller, ngerman, notheorems]{beamer}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{textpos}

\usetheme{Marburg}

\institute{Institution}
\title{The Title
\author{The Author(s)}
\date{July 01, 2010}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
\maketitle
\begin{textblock*}{2cm}(1cm,-7.5cm)
  \rule{2cm}{1cm}% use the \includegraphics command here
\end{textblock*}

\end{frame}

\end{document}
In my example I used a black rectangle instead of an actual image to make the code compilable for everyone; of course, instead of the rectangle you can include the logo using the standard \includegraphics command.

As a side note, I noticed that you are loading the color package with the pdftex option; this is not necessary (beamer internally loads the color package) and will cause a clash during compilation, so you can safely delete the line

Code: Select all

\usepackage[pdftex]{color}
from your code.
