I would like to add full reference in the footnote, in Beamer. I am using MiKTeX 2.9 with TeXNicCenter 2.0 Alpha 3 build 1118.
I know about this question Place bibliography items at bottom of frame. I tried to do what is recommended in the chosen answer https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/6015/35656.
Instead of obtaining the desired output, the footnote contained only the id of the reference. I looked more on tex.SE, and found this closed question \footfullcite does NOT give the full citation (biblatex, beamer). I saw in a comment to the question that, when using MikTex, I should add "backend=bibtex" to the options. This didn't help me. I keep receiving the biblatex error "patching footnotes failed".
I paste below the code.
\documentclass{beamer}
%\usepackage[style=authortitle,backend=bibtex]{biblatex}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex]{biblatex}
\bibliography{foo}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
Here is text \footfullcite{ref01}. % this writes ref01 in footnote
Here is text \fullcite{ref01}. % this writes ref01 in place
\end{frame}
\end{document}
\bibliography{foo}
you should use\addbibresource{foo.bib}
. Which version of MiKTeX do you use? With a recent version there should be no problem.
