Latex Beamer, footnote, footmisc, hang option

Post by mschulme »

Hey everyone,
I have an issue with Latex BEAMER when it comes to footnotes. I want to use footnotes in a certain format which is easy to achieve using the "footmisc" package and the "hang" option in Latex. However, in Latex BEAMER this does not really work.

What I GET in Beamer is:

1 Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text.

2 Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text.


But what I WANT to HAVE is:

1 Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text.

2 Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text.


Below, please find my beamer example code. Does someone have any idea?

Thanks
Marcus


\documentclass{beamer}

\begin{document}
\section{The First Thing I Want to Talk About}
\subsection{Important Issues}
\begin{frame}[t]{The First Thing I Want to Talk About}
Bla\footnote{Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text.} bla bla\footnote{Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text.}.
\end{frame}
\end{document}

Is something like this what you had in mind? (Change the two occurrences of 2em to whatever suits you.)

Code: Select all

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{hanging}
\setbeamertemplate{footnote}{\hangpara{2em}{1}\makebox[2em][l]{\insertfootnotemark}\footnotesize\insertfootnotetext\par}
\begin{document}
\section{The First Thing I Want to Talk About}
\subsection{Important Issues}
\begin{frame}[t]{The First Thing I Want to Talk About}
Bla\footnote{Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text.} bla bla\footnote{Text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text.}.
\end{frame}
\end{document}
