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

700 Then you can repeat this frame by means of the

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

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

981 \begin_layout Enumerate
983 \begin_inset Flex Structure
986 \begin_layout Plain Layout
992 is a frame without a sidebar/header (such as this one). This is useful for slides with much content\SpecialChar breakableslash
996 \begin_layout Enumerate
998 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1001 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1007 is to be used if the frame consists of
1008 \begin_inset Quotes eld

1139 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.

1151 \begin_inset Argument 1
1155 \begin_layout Standard
1161 Overlays are useful to build up slides as you speak
1164 \begin_layout Itemize
1165 They help you to shift your audience's focus on specific things
1168 \begin_layout Itemize

1233 provides many different overlay types. The most important ones are:

1239 \begin_inset space ~
1243 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1246 \begin_layout Description
1248 \begin_inset space ~
1252 content: Stuff that is faded out (not completely invisible)
1255 \begin_layout Description
1257 \begin_inset space ~
1261 content: Stuff that is somehow emphasized at a certain point

1682 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1686 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1690 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1694 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1697 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 What does this mean?
3706 \begin_layout Itemize
3707 It means that this frame will only be visible in the presentation, not in the accompanying
