Bottom right Title on Slides

Post by yperionas »

Greetings to all!

The problem I am having is that the title of the presentation at the bottom right corner (next to page numbering) does not change when I compile the .tex file.

I have already included a section \title{Presentation name}.

Note: I am using the structure of a previous presentation. However, the new title that I have inserted is not updated but each of the slides keep the previous one.

What you think is the problem?

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

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

Perhaps the fact that you don't give useful information at the moment because you don't show us what you are doing. Hence you should prepare a self-contained and minimal example in order to avoid speculations and guesswork.

Hello Thorsten and thanx for your reply. I have found the solution to my problem although I will elaborate on it for others that are new with LaTeX presentation.

I have been using a structure for my presentation that I borrowed from another researcher (to get things going faster):

Code: Select all

\documentclass[xcolor={dvipsnames,table}]{beamer}
\mode<presentation>
{
  \usetheme{Warsaw}
  \useoutertheme{split}  % <<<<<<<
  \setbeamercovered{transparent}
}
\usepackage[french]{babel} 
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\usepackage{times}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{url}
\urlstyle{sf}
\setbeamertemplate{items}[triangle]

%-------------- TITLE PAGE---------------

\title{Problem with Title}
\author{Author}
\date{Date}
\institute{Institute}
%----------------------------------------

\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[plain]
  \titlepage
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[plain]{Presentation Outline}
  \tableofcontents
\end{frame}
\section{Section title 1}
\subsection{Subsection title 1} 
\section{Section title 2} 
\subsection{Subsection title 2} 
\begin{frame}{Problem with title bottom right of this slide}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
It seems that the "outer theme" was not of one of the standard ones (see here). Thus, when I changed the presentation title, the theme was remaining unchanged! Instead a theme called "mysplit" was used (?). Some kind of a modified theme version? Is this a possibility?

Possible. But since we don't have that modified theme present here, a further diagnose is very difficult.
