I have a lot of subsections in my beamer presentation and there is a sidebar in my theme. I prefer to show the list of subsections only if their parent section is active. In this way less space will be taken by the items in the sidebar.

I searched for similar questions. But none of them were the one I was looking for.

Do you know how to do that?

  • @dcmst I'm not using beamer's default themes. I have designed my theme but I use sidebar theme from beamer. Is there any workaround?

    Try to use hideothersubsections as a global option: \documentclass[hideothersubsections]{beamer}.

The option hideothersubsections works for sidebar themes and can be used both with the theme specification, as in:

\usetheme[hideothersubsections]{Hannover}

or as a global option, as in:

\documentclass[hideothersubsections]{beamer}

In both cases it hides the subsections of the non active sections from the sidebar.
