Color of Navigation Bar in Beamer

Post by renno »

Dear all,

How can I change the color of the navigation bar in beamer. I am using "Baodilla" theme with "secheader" option. I tried "\setbeamercolor{palette primary}{fg=red}", but that did not work...

I would appreciate your help,

Jamil Renno

Hi Jamil Renno,

can you show a minimal working example that has your configuration?
Btw. the theme is Boadilla, if somebody else is looking for that.

Hello Jamil Renno,

with this MWE I could test it. Here is example code changing the colors of the symbols:

Code: Select all

\setbeamercolor{navigation symbols dimmed}{fg=red!80!black}
\setbeamercolor{navigation symbols}{fg=red!80!black}
I understood you want to change the foreground because you mentioned fg earlier.

Hey Stefen,

I actually meant the bars were "April 10, 2008 1/1", my name, and the name of the conference, and the upper bar on the top of the slide. The color combination is exactly what I needed, however, it would be great to control the color of the bars I just mentioned...

I would truly appreciate your help...

Hi Jamil Renno,

the Boadilla theme uses the dolphin color theme. So look for the file beamercolorthemedolphin.sty in your texmf tree and change the values like it's done there. Example:

Code: Select all

\setbeamercolor*{palette primary}{use=structure,fg=black,bg=structure.fg!40!red}
Similar secondary and tertiary.
