Beamer Background defined by variable
0
I have been trying for the past few days to create a new beamer custom style. I have manage to add an image to my background on the title page in the style (hard-coded) but I would like to add a variable option in the document where that image is specified. But it fails when I try.
Style document
mode<presentation>
% Requirement
RequirePackage{tikz}
RequirePackage{graphicx}
RequirePackage{fontspec}
setmainfont{Calibri}
AtBeginDocument{setbeamertemplate{logo}{}}
newcommand{frontimage}{includegraphics[width=thepaperwidth, keepaspectratio]{Frontimage.JPG}} %my title page image hardcoded
newcommand{secimage}{includegraphics[width=thepaperwidth, keepaspectratio]{secimage.JPG}} %my section page image hardcoded
useinnertheme{mytheme}
useoutertheme{mytheme}
usecolortheme{mytheme}
defbeamertemplate*{background}{mytheme}{%
begin{tikzpicture}
ifnumthepage>1relax%
%if base frame
fill[white,opacity=1] (0,0) rectangle(thepaperwidth,thepaperheight);
else
%if title page
useasboundingbox (0,0) rectangle(thepaperwidth,thepaperheight);
node[anchor=south west,inner sep=0] (image) at (0,0) {frontimage};
fi
end{tikzpicture}
}
mode<all>
And
Example Document
documentclass[aspectratio=169]{beamer}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{lipsum}
title{Boring Title}
usetheme{mytheme}
begin{document}
begin{frame}
titlepage
end{frame}
section{Introduction}
sectionframe
begin{frame}
lipsum[1]
end{frame}
end{document}
Hopefully the MWE works
