Boadilla” is a quite plain theme in beamer class; I like plain styles, but I also want a headline in the top indicating the sections so that I can know where I am when I’m giving a speech. Thus I gave some slight changes to this plain theme: the default headline has been replaced with “infolines“, while the definition of the outer themeinfolines” has also been modified as I don’t have any subsections.

The original headline:

\ifbeamer@secheader\else\setbeamertemplate{headline}[default]\fi

The modified version:

\ifbeamer@secheader\else\setbeamertemplate{headline}[infolines]\fi

Downdload the file here
