hello

is there any way i can change page numbering in the boadilla theme of
beamer so that it shows only the current page number and not `page X /
total number of pages'. That is for slide 18 out of 34 it should say
just '18' and not '18/34'.

thanks a lot

Although I have not used the slide creation ability of Latex, have you
tried using:

\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}

\fancyfoot[CE,CO]{\thepage}

Alternatively, you could change \fancyfoot to \fancyhead and use those
options to put the page number in the ceter of the od and even header.

NB CE = center even CO = center odd

Hope this helps

James

maybe like that:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{boadilla}
\setbeamertemplate{footline}{\hspace*{.5cm}\scriptsize{\insertauthor
\hspace*{50pt} \hfill\insertframenumber\hspace*{.5cm}}}
\begin{document}
\author{jayan}
\begin{frame}
test
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
test2
\end{frame}
\end{document}
