I want to have a notepage for every single page, even if it will be empty. This I accomplished with the help of this answer https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/11724/36296
But now, I have the problem, that I also want to have a special page at the beginning of a new section. But when I try to add a \note{...} after a new section started, there is an additional empty notepage.
Edit:
The goal I am trying to achieve is that after the section page the note page with "notes to section page" follows immediately without an empty notepage first.
\documentclass{beamer}
\setbeameroption{show notes}
% notepage for every slide, even if empty
\makeatletter
\def\beamer@framenotesbegin{%
\gdef\beamer@noteitems{}%
\gdef\beamer@notes{{}}%
}
\makeatother
% section page
\AtBeginSection{%
\begin{frame}
\insertsection
\end{frame}
}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
slide with note
\note{testnote}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
test with empty note
\end{frame}
\section{Section with note}
\note{notes to section page}
\end{document}



\usepackage{pgfpages}\setbeameroption{show notes on second screen}an alternative? This creates a double-width PDF document showing the frame on the left and the notes on the right (ensuring that each frame is followed by exactly one note page, without the need for your current hack). However, this setup may not be compatible with your presentation software. More information on the option can be found in thebeamermanual, section 19.3. – diabonas Oct 28 '13 at 14:45
