Hi again,
maybe it would be sufficient to export footnotes to
\footnote[frame]{...} instead of \footnote{...}. Is there any
variable or advice or similar I could use to make ox-latex behave
like this?
There does not seem to be an easy LaTeX way to make 'frame' the
default option for \footnote [1]

Hi,
I can't find a way to work with footnotes on a two column frame
in a
way, I'd like to use footnotes. Attached you can find a MWE that
hopefully makes clear, what I'd like to achieve:
- Frame 1 contains a native beamer example, that makes the frame
look like I want it to look like.
- Frame 2 contains my attempt to have it defined accordingly in
org-mode.
Generally, I want to have the footnote's text in the footer of
the
whole frame and (I think never) in the bottom of a column. It
should
not matter, whether I use it once or . It would also be fine to
set it
up that way globally, if there is a way to do so.
Any hints?
