1220 Note, however, that parts behave differently in
1221 \begin_inset Flex Structure

1230 than in other document classes: a part is considered to be

1441 Basically, the overlay concept allows to change the slide content dynamically.
1442 You can uncover things/text piecewise, fade out content, highlight things,
1443 replace text, images etc.

1538 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1541 \begin_layout Description

1955 \begin_inset Quotes eld

1967 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1970 is that hidden content is treated as if it isn't there, while covered content
1971 is just covered (and the space is reserved).
1972 If we would have hidden the quote on the last slide and not covered, it
1973 would only have taken space on appearance:
