beamer | Structuring Content of Frames

Post by erotavlas »

Hi all,

I have some question about LaTeX.
  1. I'm using the beamer package to write a presentation. I'm using a

    Code: Select all

    \usetheme[headheight=0.005cm,footheight=0.001cm]{Goettingen}
    \usercolortheme{Lily}
    
    . I don't know how can I change the distance of the title of each slide from the top margin and the distance of the text of the slide form the bottom. I need more space on the slide...I have tried to change headheight or the parameter on the myslide "template" of the slides, but without success. How can I do?

    Code: Select all

    \newenvironment{myslide}[1] 
    {\begin{frame}{\begin{center}#1\vskip-10pt\end{center}}}{\end{frame}}
    
  2. On the left side of the slides, I have the menu of my presentation. I click on the name of the section, but I redirected on wrong section, why?
  3. I have a problem with the bibliography. It doesn't fit with one single slide and I can see only a subset of the citations. Is there a way to add new slide for the remaining references?

    Code: Select all

    \begin{myslide} {References}
    \bibliographystyle{plain}
    \bibliography{bibliography/IA_bibliography} 
    \end{myslide}
    
  4. The forth question is related to the math formula formatting. I have a very long formula and I would like to separate it in several lines. I have tried with

    Code: Select all

    \begin{eqnarray}
    \underbrace{\textrm{Quantified Portion}} \\
    \underbrace{\textrm{Quantifier-free part \ - \ CNF expression}}; \\
    \{ %some expression}
    \end{eqnarray*}
    
    but the line are aligned to right side of the page. Why?
    I have also tried with the \align but without success.
Thank you

Here is my code

Code: Select all

\documentclass[9pt]{beamer}

\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsfonts}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{graphics}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{setspace}
\graphicspath{{figure/}}

\newenvironment{myslide}[1] 
{\begin{frame}{\begin{center}#1\vskip-10pt\end{center}}}{\end{frame}}

\mode<presentation>
{
\usetheme[headheight=0.005cm,footheight=0.001cm]{Goettingen}
\usecolortheme{lily}
\setbeamertemplate{theorem}[ams style]
\setbeamertemplate{theorems}[numbered]

\begin{document}
\title{My Presentation}

\begin{frame}
\titlepage
\end{frame}

\section*{Summary}
\begin{myslide}

\end{myslide}

\section*{References}
\begin{myslide} {References}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{bibliography/bibliography} 
\end{myslide}

\end{document}
}

Hi,

writing 5 questions into one topic is not the best. It could become a complicated thread if there's a discussion at all. Perhaps post one question, solve it, then post another, you could also open a new topic for a different issue while putting a link to the earlier topic.
  1. can be done by modifying the theme or template, respectively.
  2. I cannot verify it: if I click on a section name on the right, the PDF viewer goes to that section.
  3. Use the allowframebreaks options, such as

    Code: Select all

    \begin{frame}[allowframebreaks]
    \bibliographystyle{plain}
    \bibliography{bibliography/bibliography}
    \end{frame}
  4. Use & as column separator in eqnarray. I recommend using align instead, here use & for specifying the alignment position. See eqnarray vs. align for reasons and for examples.
