I'm sorry for not replying sooner.  I hardly ever check this email account
lately.

I'm afraid I am not the person to write about this.  I'd suggest texhax or
some other TeX centered list.

Any idea about the vertical space - do you see it now?

Hi! Thanks for the reply - \widthof is great! I tried it and it's perfect!

About the other problem - I attached a annotated pdf - maybe this makes it 
clearer.

Best regards

Howdy i can´t see whats the problem with the vertical space between each level for That looks absolutely equal to me. Concerning the second part of your question you may consider the following code:
[code]
\documentclass[t]{beamer} 
\usepackage{calc}


\setbeamertemplate{itemize 
items}{\small\raise1.0pt\hbox{\donotcoloroutermaths$\blacktriangleright$}} 
\setbeamerfont{itemize/enumerate body}{size=\normalsize} 
\setbeamerfont{itemize/enumerate subbody}{size=\normalsize} 
\setbeamerfont{itemize/enumerate subsubbody}{size=\normalsize} 


\newlength{\myitem}
\setlength{\myitem}{\widthof{\small\raise1.0pt\hbox{\donotcoloroutermaths$\blacktriangleright$}}+\labelsep}

I have two problems with the output:

1. The vertical space between the elements is not equal for the different
nesting levels. Although the font sizes are equal. I did not find the right
commands to adjust that.

2. I would like to have the horizontal alignment different. It's hard to
explain it in English - I'll try to make an exampl

Beamer: section in frametitle (auch wenn es keinen frametitle gibt - ich kann's nicht besser formulieren)

Manuel Kühner — 2012-04-21T10:33:30

Nochmal "Hallo", 
ich arbeite gerade an einem eigenen Beamer-Theme - daher auch der andere 
Post. Mein zweiten Problem (Aufgabe nach ca. 2 Stunden) besteht darin, dass 
ich über dem frametitle das aktuelle section udn subsection darstellen 
will. Ungefähr so: 

------ 
frametitle 
------ 

Das klappt auch - ich kann sogar die ">" dynamisch weglassen, wenn es z. B. 
kein aktuelles subsection gibt. 

Hier mal ein Beispiel: 

% -------------------------- 
\documentclass[t]{beamer} 

\setbeamertemplate{frametitle} 
{ 
 \insertsectionhead\par\
insertframetitle 
} 

\begin{document} 
\section{Section} 
\begin{frame}{Frametitel} 
Mit Frametitel

\begin{frame} 
Ohne Frametitel 
\end{frame} 
\end{document} 
% -------------------------- 

Link zum PDF: 
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1833443/Downloads/lala.pdf 

Das Problem ist nur, wenn ich bei einer Folie keinen frametitle habe, dann 
wird offenbar der Code zum frametitle gar nicht aufgerufen. Ich hätte dann 
aber trotzdem gerne die "> section > subsecion"-

height of frametitle in Beamer, and other questions...

Jinsong Zhao — 2012-04-17T23:20:09

Hi there,

I use beamer as the main package for slide. I have several problems
when I hope to customize the slide look.

1) how to reduce the height of frametitlebox? Now it seems too height
compared with the whole frame heihgt.

2) how to number the section and subsection in the header? I use
Madrid theme with option ``secheader''. I hope the section or
subsection displayed in the header have numbered.

3) how to change the section counter? For example, I hope the first
section in a specific slide start from 4.

Any suggestions will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Jinsong

Yes, it seems so.

Mirko Vukovic — 2012-04-10T13:36:48

So, just to make it explicit: it was a package conflict between fullpage
and beamer?

Re: system-wide breakdown of formatting beamer source files

Jonne Speck — 2012-04-10T12:25:02

Unloading the package fullpage has put things in order again. That is, 
I've removed the line
\usepackage{fullpage} 
from source code and all defined packages on my box.

Many thanks to everyone who has thought about my problem.

Best wishes,
Jonne

Dear Jonne,

Just a wild guess: maybe the size of the slides has changed, such
that your text does not fit anymore onto the much smaller area? And
your PDF viewer automatically scales the slides to window size, such

Do you have some personal configuration file, defining the default
paper size, outside of the LaTeX installation, which could have been
currupted?

Jan

Re: Re: system-wide breakdown of formatting beamer source files

Mirko Vukovic — 2012-04-03T17:18:01

such a way, the reason was that something something else on the computer
changed.  For example, the paths to the beamer theme files changed for some
reason (like a new disk, or partition, ...).  Or maybe the search paths
have been inadvertently modified.

Sorry I cannot be of more help.

Jonne Speck — 2012-04-03T17:06:40

Let me just add, purging and reinstalling the latex-beamer package does 
not help, either.

Re: system-wide breakdown of formatting beamer source files

Jonne Speck — 2012-04-03T16:50:46

Many thanks for your response. I've compared log files from the failed 
compilations with some old ones left on my box. Some of the packages 
loaded differ in version, but I believe latex worked well after recent 
upgrades. But then, the new "bad" logs state:
\beamer< at >paperwidth  \skip42

The old "good" logs don't contain any such line. Could this be a hint?

Best wishes,
Jonne

Re: system-wide breakdown of formatting beamer source files

Mirko Vukovic — 2012-04-03T13:57:28



Check the log file for hints.  Any changes to system variables?



Good luck,
