C-c C-e p is making the PDF at the end, but it's ignoring structural tags except for lists. I've pasted a simple example under my name. In the resulting .tex file, the code for both frames is identical, except for "sec" labels. The second frame contains Beamer environment properties while the first frame does not, so it looks like the block environments are not doing anything. For that matter, I just checked the tex file generated by Carsten's demo presentation in the org manual, and there's no evidence of the blocks at all. The only TeX environments that appear with \begin are {document}, {frame} and {itemize} -- but Carsten's demo uses: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_env: block :BEAMER_envargs: C[t] :BEAMER_col: 0.5 :END: ... :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_col: 0.5 :BEAMER_env: block :BEAMER_envargs: <2-> :END: ... :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_env: block :END: ... and a :B_note: tag, which claims it "will be formatted as a beamer note" but it isn't. For my own short file, I would have assumed that I did something wrong, but that's less plausible for example code from the manual. So I suppose it must be an installation or configuration problem. Ideas? Tonight's experimentation is driven by the simple use case I mentioned before -- centering a paragraph (and eventually putting some extra space around it, but I can handle that later). E.g., - A bullet heading within the frame A free paragraph Centered text - Another bullet Am I on the right track by looking at blocks? Could somebody give me a quick example of how to do this, and I'll try to extrapolate to other uses?
