[Tex/LaTex] Beamer starred section formatting in the TOC

beamerstarred-versiontable of contents

I am writing a beamer presentation and I want the structure (and the .toc) to be:

Introduction
1. Section 1
2. Section 2
3. Section 3
Conclusion

Therefore, I used the starred version of the section command (\section*{Intro}) and the \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Intro} to add it to the toc.

The problem is: the formatting of the Intro title and the Section 1, 2… titles in the .toc are different.

Any idea how to fix that?

Here is a MWE:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Copenhagen}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{TOC}
\tableofcontents
\end{frame}

\section*{Intro}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Intro}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section{Section 1}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section{Section 2}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section{Section 3}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section*{Conclusion}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Conclusion}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\end{document}

Best Answer

A dirty hack and the artificial toc-entries do not provide links to the sections:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Copenhagen}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{TOC}
\tableofcontents
\end{frame}

\section*{Intro}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\vskip1.5em\hskip1.2em\protect\usebeamercolor[fg]{structure}Intro}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section{Section 1}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section{Section 2}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section{Section 3}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\section*{Conclusion}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\vskip1.5em\hskip1.2em\protect\usebeamercolor[fg]{structure}Conclusion}
\begin{frame}
\end{frame}

\end{document}
