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

703 Then you can repeat this frame by means of the
704 \begin_inset Flex Structure

803 Note that all frame content, if the style is not

827 ). This is done automatically if you insert new frame paragraphs.
830 \begin_layout Itemize
831 Nested content is marked by a red bar in the margin of the LyX workarea
835 \begin_layout Itemize
836 Non-nested content (such as this) will also be displayed in the presentation (on a separate slide), but not properly aligned

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

871 inset, which can be produced by hitting return in an empty Standard paragraph right below the frame (see UserGuide, sec.

980 LyX provides two special frame types:
984 \begin_layout Enumerate
986 \begin_inset Flex Structure
989 \begin_layout Plain Layout
995 is a frame without a sidebar/header (such as this one). This is useful for slides with much content\SpecialChar breakableslash
999 \begin_layout Enumerate
1001 \begin_inset Flex Structure
1004 \begin_layout Plain Layout
1010 is to be used if the frame consists of
1011 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1015 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1018 content, especially verbatim stuff such as program listings

1142 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.

1154 \begin_inset Argument 1
1158 \begin_layout Standard
1164 Overlays are useful to build up slides as you speak
1167 \begin_layout Itemize
1168 They help you to shift your audience's focus on specific things
1171 \begin_layout Itemize

1236 provides many different overlay types. The most important ones are:
1240 \begin_layout Description
1242 \begin_inset space ~
1246 content: Stuff that is completely invisible up to a point
1249 \begin_layout Description
1251 \begin_inset space ~
1255 content: Stuff that is faded out (not completely invisible)
1258 \begin_layout Description
1260 \begin_inset space ~
1264 content: Stuff that is somehow emphasized at a certain point

1685 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1689 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1693 \begin_inset Quotes eld
1697 \begin_inset Quotes erd
1700 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:

3704 \begin_layout Itemize
3705 What does this mean?
3709 \begin_layout Itemize
3710 It means that this frame will only be visible in the presentation, not in the accompanying
