As mentioned above I am creating my own outer theme and want the navigationbar from insertnavigation. My problem is that every frame is shown as a bullet point but i just need the section with the subsections, not the mini frames.
```\mode<presentation>
% Frame title
\defbeamertemplate*{frametitle}{texsx}[1][]
{
\vskip0.4cm
\begin{beamercolorbox}[wd=\paperwidth,ht=0cm]{frametitle}
\usebeamerfont{navigation symbols}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\useasboundingbox[fill=white](0,0) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,1.2);
\fill[MidnightBlue] (0,-9) rectangle(2.5,-8);
\fill[MidnightBlue!70] (2.5,-9) rectangle(9.3,-8);
\fill[SkyBlue] (9.3,-9) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,-8);
\fill[MidnightBlue] (0,0.3455) rectangle (2.5, 1.2);
\fill[SkyBlue] (0,-0.1) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,0.35);
\fill[ MidnightBlue!70] (2.5,0.35) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,1.2);
\node[anchor= west, white] at (0.3,0.15){\tiny\insertnavigation{0.85\paperwidth}};%
\ifx\insertframesubtitle\@empty%
{\node[anchor=west, white,font=\large] at (2.5,0.61){\insertframetitle};}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{beamercolorbox}
}
\mode<all>``

If you don't want the `miniframe`s, don't use `\insertnavigation`. Instead you can use the section navigation which will just gives you the section names:
```
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{tikz}
\colorlet{MidnightBlue}{blue!50!black}
\colorlet{SkyBlue}{blue!20!white}
% Frame title
\makeatletter
\defbeamertemplate*{frametitle}{texsx}[1][]
{
\vskip0.4cm
\begin{beamercolorbox}[wd=\paperwidth,ht=0cm]{frametitle}
\usebeamerfont{navigation symbols}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\useasboundingbox[fill=white](0,0) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,1.2);
\fill[MidnightBlue] (0,-9) rectangle(2.5,-8);
\fill[MidnightBlue!70] (2.5,-9) rectangle(9.3,-8);
\fill[SkyBlue] (9.3,-9) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,-8);
\fill[MidnightBlue] (0,0.3455) rectangle (2.5, 1.2);
\fill[SkyBlue] (0,-0.1) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,0.35);
\fill[MidnightBlue!70] (2.5,0.35) rectangle(\the\paperwidth,1.2);
\node[anchor= west, white] at (0.3,0.15){\tiny\insertsectionnavigationhorizontal{.85\paperwidth}{}{\hskip0pt plus1filll}};%
\ifx\insertframesubtitle\@empty%
{\node[anchor=west, white,font=\large] at (2.5,0.61){\insertframetitle};}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{beamercolorbox}
}
\makeatother
\setbeamertemplate{frametitle}[texse]
\begin{document}
\section{title}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{title}
abc
\end{frame}
\section{title}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{title}
abc
\end{frame}
\end{document}
```
