679 Frames can be repeated fully or only in terms of selected sub-slides, multiple times at any later point of the presentation.
683 You just need to give the respective frame a label name via the frame option

701 Then you can repeat this frame by means of the

828 \begin_layout Itemize
829 Nested content is marked by a red bar in the margin of the LyX workarea

858 Consecutive frames have to be separated from each other. This is done by means of the

982 \begin_layout Enumerate
984 \begin_inset Flex Structure
987 \begin_layout Plain Layout
993 is a frame without a sidebar/header (such as this one). This is useful for slides with much content\SpecialChar breakableslash
997 \begin_layout Enumerate
999 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1002 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1008 is to be used if the frame consists of
1009 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1013 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1016 content, especially verbatim stuff such as program listings

1140 Basically, the overlay concept allows to change the slide content dynamically. You can uncover things/text piecewise, fade out content, highlight things, replace text, images etc.

1152 \begin_inset Argument 1
1156 \begin_layout Standard
1162 Overlays are useful to build up slides as you speak
1165 \begin_layout Itemize
1166 They help you to shift your audience's focus on specific things

1234 provides many different overlay types. The most important ones are:

1240 \begin_inset space ~
1244 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1247 \begin_layout Description
1249 \begin_inset space ~
1253 content: Stuff that is faded out (not completely invisible)
1256 \begin_layout Description
1258 \begin_inset space ~
1262 content: Stuff that is somehow emphasized at a certain point

1683 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1687 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1691 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1695 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1698 is that hidden content is treated as if it isn't there, while covered content is just covered (and the space is reserved). If we would have hidden the quote on the last slide and not covered, it would only have taken space on appearance:

3702 \begin_layout Itemize
3703 What does this mean?
3707 \begin_layout Itemize
3708 It means that this frame will only be visible in the presentation, not in the accompanying

3805 \begin_layout Itemize
