LyX Beamer Sweave: makebeamertitle not being defined?
I am using LyX to make Beamer slides while supporting the use of R statistical commands via the Sweave package. If I follow the instructions found here http://ggorjan.blogspot.com/2008/09/using-beamer-with-lyx-sweave.html LyX/Sweave/Beamer works just fine. But as soon as I try to put in Title or Author information at the beginning, LyX refuses to typeset the presentation, returning instead this error message: Undefined control sequence. \makebeamertitle The control sequence at the end of the top line of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue, and I'll forget about whatever was undefined. This is mystifying to me, as the 'makebeamertitle' is defined in the included beamer.layout now packaged with LyX. Here's the literate-beamer.layout file I am using, which should be loading the 'beamer.layout' information: #% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this # \DeclareLaTeXClass[beamer, Sweave.sty]{beamer (beamer Sweave noweb)} # # What: literate-article textclass definition file. # Author: Gregor Gorjanc gregor.gorj...@bfro.uni-lj.si # $Id: literate-article.layout 58 2007-01-02 00:41:59Z ggorjan $ # # This is a copy of literate-article.layout from LyX, but changed for # Sweave - NoWeb syntax: # - changed noweb.sty to Sweave.sty # - moved preamble to literate-scrap.inc Format 2 Input beamer.layout Input literate-scrap.inc If I typeset the tex file that LyX generates myself using TeXShop, it generates a pdf without any complaints, but fails to show the requested title page, even though these lines are found in the generated tex file: \begin{document} \title{Test Title} \makebeamertitle If I paste this code from the 'beamer.layout' into my LaTeX file (or into the 'LaTeX preamble' section of my LyX Document Settings): \newcommand\makebeamertitle{\frame{\maketitle}}% \AtBeginDocument{ \let\origtableofcontents=\tableofcontents \def\tableofcontent...@ifnextchar[{\origtableofcontents} {\gobbletableofcontents}} \def\gobbletableofcontents#1{\origtableofcontents} } then the title page appears. But I can get the title pages to appear O.K. if I use the 'presentation (beamer)' style instead. So for some reason, the 'beamer.layout' definitions are not functioning properly in terms of defining the 'makebeamertitle' with my custom 'literate-beamer.layout' file. However, this used to work with an earlier version of LyX last year, as I made several beamer presentations that way. Thanks for any suggestions you might have.
