I'd like to change the layout of my slides. For an article, the corresponding commands would be \textheigt and \textwidth, which can be done with \newgeometry. When I put these in my presentation, the slides are uncomplete and the top and bottom lines are not at the margin anymore, but I'd like to change the size of the slides themselves, not just their ratio or some positions within the slides.
I also couldn't find any documentation of the geometry package.
MWE:
\documentclass[10pt]{beamer}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{ngerman}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{gensymb}
\usepackage[absolute,overlay]{textpos}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[margin=1pt]{geometry}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\lipsum[1]
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\newgeometry{textwidth=10cm}
\lipsum[2]
\end{frame}
\end{document}
Or I get the error "Option clash for package geometry."
"Emergency stop".
