Hello,
I am new to org-mode, because it seems impressive, and I think that it
will make my life much simpler. Thank you!
For the following, I am attaching example org, pdf and tex files (the
last two generated by org-mode > export beamer PDF).
First, why does slide 3/4 contain two main headlines fit into a single
slide?
Second, how do I force a new slide so that the "Figures" block is not
cut-off on slide 4/4?
Third, how do I get the contents of "Description of the project" (slide
3/4) into a block (like Concepts in slide 4/4).
I looked around and could not find my answers. Your support is much
appreciated. Thanks.
Edgar

Your org file layout is a little confused. You have told org that
beamer slides (aka frames) will be level 2 headlines (so level 1
headlines become sections). Then you, for instance, some content
directly under a level 1 headline which is ignored. Third level
headlines will become blocks within a frame.

Currently, it is part of the "Structure and Function" slide because your
figures are within a level 3 headline which is converted to a
block. Put the figures under a second level headline instead.
> Third, how do I get the contents of "Description of the project" (slide

Blocks are 3rd level headlines so put the contents within a 3rd level
headline.
HTH,

This sounds interesting. I will try. Thanks.

Thanks again.

Would be nice, right? :) .

Thanks. I get confused between tutorials many times.

Ok. You may not believe this, but I was confused about how headlines
worked, and an asterisk looked like a headline to me (or something).
Thanks.

"weird sounds from knee bending" is the technical term for "Oh, sh...t!"

It is _really_ great! Thank you very much for all your effort and time
:) ! I appreciate it a lot.
Cheers!
P.S. Sorry for the late answer. My life is a turmoil right now.

No problem at all and hope that helped. It's definitely confusing initially!
Re. the headline thing, I just meant that this:
* something
** something
is not this:
- something
- something
Asterisks are headlines, but I took your inquiring why the "Notes on
project" (with dashes) were not on separate slides. I might have
misunderstood, though.
Good luck!

Hey Fabrice,
It's me again. I looked at your (README.org), and I finally understood
how to force a framebreak! Thank you very much. I feel stupid, because
it's the same solution which has been around on the Internet, but I
finally know how to use it. For others who might be interested:
If your heading number 2 (** Heading) creates a slide (look at the
#+OPTIONS: of your org file. If you have H:2, then this is the case. If
you have another number after H:, it means that your slides will be
created with that level of heading. This is all in the manual, honest!),
then add the property for allowframebreaks,label=
(https://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer/issue/265/including-frame-label-option-stops):
#+OPTIONS: author:nil H:2
* Heading #1
** Heading #2
:PROPERTIES:
# The 0.8 forces the content to fit in 0.8 of the whole slide
# (without considering navigation bars, etc.)
:BEAMER_OPT: allowframebreaks=0.8,label=
:END:
Your long contents go here (and more than one slides are generated
automatically)
So, if you try this (doesn't work):
#+OPTIONS: author:nil H:2
* Heading #1
** Heading #2
*** Heading #3
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_OPT: allowframebreaks=0.8,label=
:END:
Your long contents will be cropped within a single slide
This doesn't work either:
#+OPTIONS: author:nil H:2
* Heading #1
** Heading #2
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_OPT: allowframebreaks=0.8,label=
:END:
*** Heading #3
Your long contents will be cropped into more than one slide, wherein
the first slide will possibly be the headline.
Now that I think of it, may be I should turn this into a feature
request. Is that reasonable? (to force a framebreak when a block
overflows a slide, resulting in cropped contents).
