Hi  Cédric,

If I understand it correctly, you want to include a graphical representation of you headlines into you beamer file, created via tikz/pgf.
That sounds quite similar to what I'm doing at the moment, only I create gantt charts instead of mind maps.
As far as I can tell, the best possibility to do that inside of emacs, is to use custom dynamic blocks. 
http://orgmode.org/manual/Dynamic-blocks.html
Simply create your own org-dblock-write:... function that parses the file and creates the tikz output you want.
You can have a look at org-dblock-write:clocktable and org-dblock-write:columnview for inspiration.
I think using org-element-parse-buffer and org-element-map should get you what you need.

You can also have a look at my gantt chart creation here:
https://github.com/HeyFlash/emacs-stuff/tree/master/experiments
(One el file and one org file for testing)
You can probably ignore most of the file, as you don't need the complex time calculations I do.
Keep in mind that this is wip and I'm not an experienced elisp / org person, so if anyone has better suggestions, listen to them.

I will be without internet from later today until the middle of next week, so if you have any questions I will not be responding until then.

Regards,
Bernhard

Dear org-mode users,

I have used org-mode for some months now. I find it very useful. I
have recently used it to prepare mathematic teaching lessons using the
beamer exporter.

I wanted to combine org-mode and tikz latex's package from latex In
order to insert some kind of mind-mapping from the headlines between
the main parts of the lesson. I enclose an example so that you can see
what I am talking about. Note that you can move forth and back through
the presentation with hyperlinks. Note also only the chapter "Droites
dans le plan" is filled so most of links fail.

I have done that from a single org-mode file using shell scripting
calling org-mode and emacs in a batch mode way.

Before improving my shell script, I would like to know if there is a
proper way to handle that within org-mode in lisp language. I have no
idea about how to do that but someone may know if it is possible or
not, and may give me hints to follow so that I could have a try.

Thanks,

Cédric Ody
