beamer | Figuring out the Name of Theme Colors

Post by bsgreen07 »

Hi All,

I would like to figure out the name of some of the default colors that "beamer" uses in it's various themes. Below is minimal working example illustrating what I am trying to accomplish.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{beamer}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usetheme{Madrid}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\begin{example}
I want to know what is the name of the color used in this background?
\vspace{1in}
\end{example}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
Any ideas how I can figure this out?


Thanks,
Brett
