Document Classes ⇒ beamer | Remove the Navigation Bar Space of a plain Frame

[CharlieMAC]

Hi everybody!

I have to make a presentation for school and I decided to use the Marburg Beamer theme. I've been able to configure it as I want and it works perfect, but the thing is that I want a plain frame (without navigation bar) as the title page, so I used the optional parameter [plain] after \begin{frame} definition and the navigation bar disappears, but not the space used by it.

This causes the text and the images in the title page to be in the left side, in spite of they're centered.

So, how could I remove the navigation bar and its space?

MWE is attached.

Taking advantage of the same topic, how could I get rid of the badboxes Beamer gives after compilation?

Any suggestion?

Hi Charlie,

you could use

Code: Select all

\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}

Where is it supposed that I have to write that command? I mean, I tried writing it in the preamble and inside the frame definition, but nothing happened. The elements in the title page are still being in the left side instead of being centered.

Do you guys think this is a problem of the theme I chose?

THanks for your answers anyway!

SO, I've tried to remove the sidebar by using:

1.- [plain] option in frame environment
2.- \setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
3.- Adjusting the size of it using \setbeamersize

None of the three previous did work so far... I expected to remove the sidebar completely using the third option, but according to LaTeX I can't modify any size after the preamble of the document. So, I'm basically dissappointed with this, cause I haven't been able to produce the title page I want. I just want to remove the sidebar and its space of the first frame.

Probably, I wrote a wrong topic title. I meant to say "Remove the sidebar and its sapce..."

Any suggestions?
