1187 You can also divide your presentation into

1198 Note, however, that parts behave differently in
1199 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1202 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1208 than in other document classes: a part is considered to be

1418 Basically, the overlay concept allows to change the slide content dynamically.
1419 You can uncover things/text piecewise, fade out content, highlight things,
1420 replace text, images etc.

1438 Overlays are useful to build up slides as you speak
1441 \begin_layout Itemize
1442 They help you to shift your audience's focus on specific things

1504 The most important ones are:

1513 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1516 \begin_layout Description
1518 \begin_inset space ~

1927 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1931 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1935 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1939 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1942 is that hidden content is treated as if it isn't there, while covered content
1943 is just covered (and the space is reserved).
1944 If we would have hidden the quote on the last slide and not covered, it
1945 would only have taken space on appearance:
