          The obligatory tikzmark and beamer-overlay-styles answer. It might be more useful if you use more features of table, which are harder to reproduce with a tikz matrix.

          • @marmotThank you very much for your answer. Unfortunately I can not install tikzmark package on my workplace computer for security reasons.

            Apr 13 at 5:06











          • @Hany I understand. You could also use Torbjørn T.'s tikznode command. This answer is public and may help some who have a more complicated table with, say, right-aligned cells and so on to annotate their table. For your purposes Joule V.s nice answer does a great job (and has certain advantages over ordinary tables when it comes to other questions like fitting some nodes in an ellipse on the background).

          The obligatory tikzmark and beamer-overlay-styles answer. It might be more useful if you use more features of table, which are harder to reproduce with a tikz matrix.

          • @marmotThank you very much for your answer. Unfortunately I can not install tikzmark package on my workplace computer for security reasons.

          • @Hany I understand. You could also use Torbjørn T.'s tikznode command. This answer is public and may help some who have a more complicated table with, say, right-aligned cells and so on to annotate their table. For your purposes Joule V.s nice answer does a great job (and has certain advantages over ordinary tables when it comes to other questions like fitting some nodes in an ellipse on the background).

          The obligatory tikzmark and beamer-overlay-styles answer. It might be more useful if you use more features of table, which are harder to reproduce with a tikz matrix.

          • @marmotThank you very much for your answer. Unfortunately I can not install tikzmark package on my workplace computer for security reasons.

          • @Hany I understand. You could also use Torbjørn T.'s tikznode command. This answer is public and may help some who have a more complicated table with, say, right-aligned cells and so on to annotate their table. For your purposes Joule V.s nice answer does a great job (and has certain advantages over ordinary tables when it comes to other questions like fitting some nodes in an ellipse on the background).
