Modifications to Presentation Theme

Post by zapsib »

Hello,

I am still a newbie in LaTeX. I want to use "Dresden" theme but with green background. As base, it comes with blue color. What we be the easier way to have green color ?

The code looks like this.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{beamer}
\mode<presentation>
{
  \usetheme{Dresden}
  \setbeamercovered{transparent}
}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{times}
\usepackage{lmodern}

Thanks.

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 reading Section 8.2.7 of the beamer user guide would be a good starting point.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Thanks for answering, I will study this part of the manual.

To have quick results, I was looking to help on \usecolortheme with a green color.
Any idea?

thanks & regards.

Since you only want another background color, there is no need for another color theme. For the background I would suggest a color that is near to the complementary color for blue, hence in the region of a slight yellow instead of green.
