BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Hide Navigation Symbols

[shartjen]

Hi,

I want just a plain reference slide, no symbols and they mess up my Palo Alto style.
Google hits provided as answers mainly these two options:

Code: Select all

\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}%remove navigation symbols
\usenavigationsymbolstemplate{}

Tried both of them but symbols just don't care and stay in my references.

Thx for any help.

Here's my minimal example with the second choice:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[parskip, deutsch, xcolor={svgnames}]{beamer}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,style=authoryear,doi=false,url=false,isbn=false, maxcitenames=2]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{Literature_SW_Model}

\usetheme{PaloAlto}    


\setbeamercovered{transparent}
%\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}%remove navigation symbols
\usenavigationsymbolstemplate{}
%\beamertemplatenavigationsymbolsempty 

\title[New Keynesian Endogenous Growth]{
       New Keynesian Endogenous Growth\\
}

\begin{document}
\frame{\maketitle}
\begin{frame}\frametitle{Introduction}

	\begin{itemize}
		\item {\textcite{Smets2007}}
	\end{itemize}
	\textbf{Text}
\end{frame}
\section{References}
\begin{frame}\frametitle{References}
	%\usenavigationsymbolstemplate{}
	\printbibliography[heading=bibintoc] %[heading=none]
\end{frame}
\end{document} 

And my literature:

Code: Select all

@book{Kuhn2011,
  title="Government spending in dynamic general equilibrium models",
  author="K{\"u}hn, Stefan",
  year="2011",
  publisher="Universitaire Pers"
}

@article{Smets2007,
Author = {Smets, Frank and Wouters, Rafael},
Title = {Shocks and Frictions in US Business Cycles: A Bayesian DSGE Approach},
Journal = {American Economic Review},
Volume = {97},
Number = {3},
Year = {2007},
Pages = {586-606},
DOI = {10.1257/aer.97.3.586},
URL = {http://www.aeaweb.org/articles.php?doi=10.1257/aer.97.3.586}
}

@article{Kimball1995,
  title={The Quantitative Analytics of the Basic Neomonetarist Model},
  author={Kimball, Miles S.},
  journal={Journal of Money, Credit, and Banking},
  volume={27},

Hi and welcome,
very good example.

If you click on Open in Writelatex (got currently rebranded to Overleaf) you can run the code with an online compiler. I don't see the navigation symbols, so i might have misunderstood your question.


Hint, if your presentation is in english, you should tell that to babel instead of using ngerman.

Thx, that was all the help needed. I confused items and navigation symbol.
I had the feeling the item linked me to the reference and thus I was searching to hide the nav symbols. But I wanted to hide the items.

Code: Select all

\setbeamertemplate{bibliography item}{}

did the job.

Thanx and sorry for mixing it up.

Hi,

welcome to the forum!

Great, that it's already solved. Btw. I feel that I don't need bibliographies in a presentation. Who in the auditory reads that. However, it's great for a handout or for downloading.
