Re: [Orgmode] Re: org-beamer outline

[John Hendy]

For what it's worth on the topic of beamer outlines, I recently created a presentation and wanted the Outline to re-appear before every section. Having this at the top of the document (right after all the #+options stuff) worked great:

-----

\AtBeginSection[]{

\begin{frame}<beamer>

\frametitle{Outline}

\tableofcontents[currentsection]

\end{frame}}

-----

I think it's pretty cool, especially if there are many frames between parts. Perhaps this can be useful to someone looking into various methods for using outlines in Beamer? Toggle #+options: toc:t and toc:nil to either have the full outline appear at the beginning or only have the outline with the highlighted upcoming section visible.

Hi deech,

Set BEAMER_FRAME_LEVEL to 3 and adjust outline levels as below.

#+BEAMER_FRAME_LEVEL: 3
#+COLUMNS: %35ITEM %10BEAMER_env(Env) %10BEAMER_envargs(Env Args) %4BEAMER_col(Col) %8BEAMER_extra(Extra)
* Presentation

** Topic 1
*** Slide 1
*** Slide 2
** Topic 2
*** Slide 3
*** Slide 4

p.s. Thanks very much Carsten and Eric F. for org-beamer. I gave my
first org-beamer presentation yesterday.
