The contents of Beamer slides are vertically centered within slides. This is particularly noticeable if there is very little material in the slide.
Use the options t
, c
or b
with \begin{frame}
to have the contents of the slide aligned with the top, center
or bottom of the slide, respectively. The default option is c
.
The following example illustrate this:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Singapore}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[t]{Top alignment}
This is the content of the slide.
\end{frame}
\end{document}
\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Singapore}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[c]{Center alignment (default)} % [c] is the default
This is the content of the slide.
\end{frame}
\end{document}
\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Singapore}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[b]{Bottom alignment}
This is the content of the slide.
\end{frame}
\end{document}
You may set the vertical alignment policy for the entire document
by giving one of the options t
or b
to the
\documentclass
. For instance:
\documentclass[t]{beamer}
will cause the contents of all slides to be top-aligned.
You can override this for individual slides by using the
c
or b
options with \begin{frame}
.
