Hi,
How do I put text between frames in an Org-Beamer document?
What I really want to do is something like:
#+begin_src LaTeX
...
\end{frame}
\againframe<2>{overview.fig}
\end{frame}
#+end_src
But there is /plenty/ of use of being able to write in-between frames.
I imagine two ways this could be archived,
a. Use a special property for a headline
b. Have a '#+LaTeX_Beamer:' option.
Are anybody aware of any quick fixes?
Thanks,
Rasmus

Hi Rasmus,
I am sorry I have no solution for you just now.
This behavior you're seeking is something I long for as well, to insert
a this frame only custom background, to be precise.
The issue lies in the org-beamer.el way of divvying up the file into
frames (if memory servers me, it's the org-beamer-sectioning function,
but I can be mistaken), it's a big function that handles most of
org-beamers functionality. For the behavior that we seek we need to
implement a function that can encapsulate the \begin{frame} ...
\end{frame} code. However, this is not trivial.
It has my interest, but don't expect anything useful from me in the
short term, as I am an elisp noob and I am just getting acquainted with
the org api.

So many great things can be put in-between
\end{frame}
...
\begin{frame}
in Beamer....

Yeah, I gussed it was something like that..
However, maybe something like to the following could be implemented.
I note the following in my file:
** Frame
...
#+latex_beamer_outside_frame: \againframe<2>{overview.fig} %(1)
** Next frame
The 'Org-exporter' notices (1) and stores it in a list L. Each time it
writes \end{frame} it also checks L and if L is non-empty the exporter
will dump whatever currently exists in L after \end{frame}.
I do, however, not know whether this is easily implemented.

I am neither good at lisp nor programming in general, although I do need
the command for a Python presentation. I guess I'll have to fix the Beamer
code 'by hand'.

Depending on whether you use beamer for both presentation and for
handouts, I can give you a kludge that should work for presentation
only:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** Previous frame
text here
#+begin_latex
\end{frame}
\againframe<2>{overview.fig}
\begin{frame}<handout>
#+end_latex
** Following frame
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Very fragile... and untested! This won't work if the previous frame has
blocks or unterminated lists unfortunately.
An alternative, and likely more workable, solution would be to do some
post-processing using one of org's hooks (org-export-latex-final-hook
maybe with a check for org-beamer-export-is-beamer-p?) to catch some
special tags you put in and insert the appropriate latex code yourself.
This would require some elisp...
