722 You just need to give the respective frame a label name via the frame option

1017 \begin_layout Enumerate
1018 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1021 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1027 is a frame without a sidebar/header (such as this one).
1028 This is useful for slides with much content\SpecialChar \slash{}
1032 \begin_layout Enumerate
1033 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1036 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1042 is to be used if the frame consists of
1043 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1047 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1050 content, especially verbatim stuff such as program listings
1054 \begin_layout PlainFrame

1255 at the position where the appendix should begin
1259 \begin_layout Itemize
1260 Typical content of the appendix is the bibliography

1313 Basically, the overlay concept allows to change the slide content dynamically.
1314 You can uncover things/text piecewise, fade out content, highlight things,
1315 replace text, images etc.

1324 \begin_inset Argument 1
1327 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1333 Overlays are useful to build up slides as you speak
1336 \begin_layout Itemize
1337 They help you to shift your audience's focus on specific things
1340 \begin_layout Itemize
1341 And they help your audience to follow you

1376 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1386 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1389 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1395 provides many different overlay types.
1396 The most important ones are:
1400 \begin_layout Description
1402 \begin_inset space ~
1405 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1408 \begin_layout Description
1410 \begin_inset space ~
1413 content: Stuff that is faded out (not completely invisible)
1416 \begin_layout Description
1418 \begin_inset space ~
1421 content: Stuff that is somehow emphasized at a certain point
1426 We give examples for these types in what follows, but begin with some general

1766 Ich weiß nicht, was ich will

1811 The difference between
1812 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1816 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1820 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1824 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1827 is that hidden content is treated as if it isn't there, while covered content
1828 is just covered (and the space is reserved).
1829 If we would have hidden the quote on the last slide and not covered, it
1830 would only have taken space on appearance:
1835 \begin_inset Argument 1
1838 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1846 Ich weiß nicht, was ich will
1852 ich will nicht, was ich weiß
1858 im Sommer ist mir kalt
