Dear list,
I am working on a presentation for a conference (using org-mode and its
beamer export) and want to exchange the entire background for a specific
frame with an image. This is possible with Beamer, see
<https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/7919>. It works by issueing
\usebackgroundtemplate /between/ the frame environments. The frame
environment needs to be placed inside an extra group of {}, resulting in
a LaTeX construct like this (example taken from the StackExchange link):
% Local background must be enclosed by curly braces for grouping.
{
\usebackgroundtemplate{\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth]{kitten.jpg}}%
\begin{frame}{Kitten}
\begin{itemize}
\item 1
\item 2
\item 3
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
}
I tried to use a #+begin_export beamer construct to achieve this from
within org:
* Normal Frame
#+begin_export beamer
{\usebackgroundtemplate{%
\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{test.jpg}}
\begin{frame}[t]\frametitle{This frame should have another background}
% ...frame content...
\end{frame}
}
#+end_export
* Normal frame again
But that results in a LaTeX compilation error, because the command is
not issued between to frames, but within the frame created for the
"Normal Frame" heading. Breaking the construct up in two #+begin_export
beamer constructs like this therefore also does not work, because the
second heading causes an \end{frame} to be inserted after the
\usebackgroundtemplate group has been opened:
* Normal Frame
#+begin_export beamer
{\usebackgroundtemplate{%
\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{test.jpg}}
#+end_export
* This frame should have another background
#+begin_export beamer
}
#+end_export
* Normal frame again
So, how do I wrap the \begin{frame}...\end{frame} construct within the
\usebackgroundtemplate group?
