beamerthemes
I am making some slides for a presentation, using the Winedt and using the theme Frankfurt. Can anyone suggest, how to change the color of the slide from purple to dark blue, or some more professional color?
I got the following slide, while running the following code:
\usetheme{Frankfurt}
\setbeamercolor{structure}{bg=black, fg=sgibeet}
\beamertemplateshadingbackground{purple!0}{white}
You can modify the colours like this:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Antibes}
\setbeamercolor{palette primary}{bg=red!80!black}
\setbeamercolor{palette secondary}{bg=red!70!black}
\setbeamercolor{palette tertiary}{bg=red!60!black}
\setbeamercolor{palette quaternary}{bg=red!50!black}
\setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=gray!50!white}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{test}
test
\end{frame}
\end{document}
AnnArbor defines the background color for titles (and similar) with:
\setbeamercolor{titlelike}{parent=structure,bg=yellow!85!orange}
(see beamerthemeAnnArbor.sty).
To change it into a kind of blue you can use something like:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[spanish,activeacute]{babel}
\usetheme{AnnArbor}
\usecolortheme{beaver}
\setbeamercolor{titlelike}{parent=structure,bg=cyan}
\begin{document}
\title{My title}
\author{My name}
\date{\today}
\begin{frame}
\titlepage
\end{frame}
\end{document}
The result is:
Changing the foreground color is as easy, e.g., use
\setbeamercolor{titlelike}{parent=structure,fg=yellow,bg=cyan}
to get
See the beamer manual for more information about \setbeamercolor and keys like fg and bg.

The default color of the frame title background using the
Frankfurttheme already is a (dark) blue:In your document, you overwrote this color using
\setbeamercolor{structure}{bg=black, fg=sgibeet}. To change the color from the purple (sigibeetin your case) you could use something like\setbeamercolor{structure}{fg=blue!50!black}that yould result in the following output:
