I'm using Warsaw as outer theme. I use some images in different slides to create an effect of 'image in evolution' but the problem is that I don't want that the number of slides increase with every frame used to create the effect. How can I do to remove a frame from the total number of frames. I've been reading about 'overlay' and tikspicture but I just receive errors in compilation. I use Winedt v5.4. Thanks in advance to everybody.

P.S. The images stay always in the same position.

Here is the link to the pdf showing the effect I want: Latex effect wanted PDF

I'd like to have all the images from slide number 3 until slide number 20 in the same frame to avoid count them and increase the total number of frames. It looks that I've got the effect wanted using \setbeamercovered{invisible} but I can't use \caption and have a 'footprint' for the images. And while the images are being uncovered the footline where are found the total number of frames disappears. The error for the \caption says: \caption outside float.

Here is my code:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[spanish]{babel}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{listings}
\usepackage{algorithm}
\usepackage{algorithmic}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{ragged2e}
\justifying
\usefonttheme{professionalfonts}
\usetheme{Warsaw}
\usecolortheme{albatross}

\setbeamercovered{transparent}

\title[This is the title      \hspace{18mm}                  \insertframenumber/\inserttotalframenumber]{\small{\texttt{Name a little bit long}}}
\author{This is author}
\institute[Name]{SCHOOL}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
\titlepage
\end{frame}

\section{Section 1}
\begin{frame}

    \scriptsize{ \tableofcontents[]}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
 \setbeamercovered{invisible}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\node(first image){
\includegraphics[width=9cm]{./IMAGENES/1.png}\caption{We are young}

\node(18image){
\includegraphics[width=9cm]{./IMAGENES/19.png}
};\pause
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{frame}

\end{document}   

So, how can I add the number of frames using \setbeamercovered{invisible} and write a footline for the images? Thanks in advance.

  • The poor man's solution is to manually decrement the page numbers. Obviously not the most elegant... – masu Oct 23 '13 at 10:19
  • I do not know if this solves your issue but it may be useful to know that the macro \insertpagenumber prints the number of the page in the pdf (so generating the undesired counting in your case) but \insertframenumber insert the number of the current \frame which will not increase when just stepping through an animation. – Bordaigorl Oct 23 '13 at 11:16

I just want to tell you that I found a solution. The effect I tried to show is working perfectly using the command \only then use \begin{figure}, \centering and only so I could use \caption. The page of the frame doesn't change while showing the different images. Thanks a lot to everyone who answered and suggested options. A last question would be, how can I finish this answer?
