beamer | Modify the Frame Title

Post by mnajem »

Hi,

I just created my slides then suddenly the seminar organizer require me to use their PPT template.. so I am not that expert, so I opt to use the template as a background using \includegraphics.

It works fine with the front page (\maketitle).

However, for the rest of slides (that is slides 2 and above), I have a problem to reallign the frame title so that it will be in the middle. Since the university logo is in the middle so if I just use the default frametitle, the title will overlapped (on top of the logo, and can't be read).

I have two questions.

1- How to make the wallpaper/graphics at the back of the slides become opaque(changing opacity.. how to do this without altering .sty)?

2- How to reallign the frame title for slides #2 and above so that it'll be in the middle instead of left-justified?

Thanks!!

I don't have an out-of-the-box solution handy for your first question. Also because I don't know how you actually install the "wallpaper". Maybe you could make a little example.

For your second question, see this minimal example and modify it to fit your needs:

Code: Select all

\setbeamertemplate
    {frametitle}
    {
      \begin{center}
        \insertframetitle
      \end{center}
    }
The commands are documented in the Beamer User Guide.
