Re: [beamer] customizing theme

Hi,

The beamer folder contains the code for all available themes (like Frankfurt). You could create your own theme using those files as inspiration. Copy the Frankfurt .sty file it to a new file, delete the smoothing part and replace colors.

Beamer + datetime

Hi,

I have noticed a "bug". It can be reproduced in this way:
- beamer used in conjunction with datetime package;
- the title of the presentation contains \today;
- view the properties of the pdf document (File-Properties in Adobe Reader) and strange numbers appears instead of the current date ...

Miktex 2.9 Update, graphicx

Hi,

I have just updated Miktex 2.9 (I installed version 2.9 and then I updated all packages using the Update tool) and I have problems with \includegraphics (might be a graphicx issue). Before the update, this basic code worked perfectly (both with latex and pdflatex):
