1112 \begin_layout Enumerate
1113 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1116 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1122 is a frame without a sidebar/header (such as this one).
1123 This is useful for slides with much content\SpecialChar breakableslash
1127 \begin_layout Enumerate
1128 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1131 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1137 is to be used if the frame consists of

1249 Parts have special meaning
1258 \begin_layout Itemize
1259 You can also divide your presentation into
1260 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1263 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1270 Note, however, that parts behave differently in
1271 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1274 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1280 than in other document classes: a part is considered to be
1281 \begin_inset Quotes eld

1491 Basically, the overlay concept allows to change the slide content dynamically.
1492 You can uncover things/text piecewise, fade out content, highlight things,
1493 replace text, images etc.

1512 Overlays are useful to build up slides as you speak
1515 \begin_layout Itemize
1516 They help you to shift your audience's focus on specific things

1578 provides many different overlay types.
1579 The most important ones are:
1583 \begin_layout Description
1585 \begin_inset space ~
1588 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1591 \begin_layout Description
1593 \begin_inset space ~
1596 content: Stuff that is faded out (not completely invisible)
1599 \begin_layout Description
1601 \begin_inset space ~

2004 The difference between
2005 \begin_inset Quotes eld
2009 \begin_inset Quotes erd
2013 \begin_inset Quotes eld
2017 \begin_inset Quotes erd
2020 is that hidden content is treated as if it isn't there, while covered content
2021 is just covered (and the space is reserved).
2022 If we would have hidden the quote on the last slide and not covered, it
2023 would only have taken space on appearance:
2028 \begin_inset Argument 1
2031 \begin_layout Plain Layout
2038 Fear no more the heat o’ the sun
2042 Nor the furious winter’s rages
2046 Thou thy worldly task hast done
