Hiding the presentation controls in LaTeX beamer presentation
I am currently building a presentation using LaTeX beamer. Is there a way to hide the presentation controls on the bottom of the slides? I don't use those controls, and they sometimes collide with the slide's text.

LaTeX beamer: way to change the bullet indentation?
I've checked the Beamer Class manual (PDF file).
