Hi Derek,
Re your first question:
One simple, albeit somewhat hackish way of achieving this would be to
utilize =org-mode='s #+begin_beamer ... #+end_beamer syntax with =beamer='s
frame option =plain= For example:
======================================================================
# setup the themes I want to use for the overall look of the beamer talk
#+BEAMER_HEADER_EXTRA:
\usetheme{Madrid}\usecolortheme{default}
* Testing default
style
test this is in madrid
format
#+begin_beamer
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[plain]
this uses beamer syntax and should be
plain
\end{frame}
#+end_beamer
======================================================================
The =\end{frame}= line is important because =org-mode= doesn't know how/when
to end the previous frame - it either looks for another heading (i.e. a "*")
or it simply adds an =\end{frame}= before the =\end{document}= upon export.
Ideally, it would be nice to be able to add an =ATTR_LATEX: plain= sort of
tag right before a heading to indicate that this particular frame should
have the =plain= beamer style. I don't think this is currently done, but it
should be fairly straight forward to implement. If I have time this weekend
to actually learn more than my rudimentary amount of elisp, then I might try
to make a patch for this feature. Maybe it should be an =ATTR_BEAMER:= line
instead...
HTH,
Chris
