Hi,

I make slides for at lecture. Some of the pages include examples where
the answers are not shown before the second frame.

I include these slides again in the appendix to show the results. But
this requires that I not only copy the frame environment, but also that
I change all overlay specifications. Is it possible to instruct beamer
to ignore overlay specifications on some slides only?

A minimal example which does not work beacuse of \turnoffoverlays

\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Show the items one by one}
Example

\onslide<2-|handout:0>{Answer}
\end{frame}
\appendix

\turnoffoverlays
% Beamer should now ignore all overlay specifications
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Show the items one by one}
Example

\onslide<2-|handout:0>{Answer}
\end{frame}
\end{document}

Regards,
Brian

Hi Brian,

You could use \againframe to achieve your goal. The following is
your example with \againframe. It also has the advantage to not
duplicate the content.

\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}
% I reserve frame no. 1 for the appendix:
\begin{frame}<all:2->[label=myItems]


\frametitle{Show the items one by one}
Example

\onslide<1,3-|handout:0>{Answer}
\end{frame}
\appendix

\againframe<all:1>{myItems}

\end{document}


If you want your answer included in the handout of the appendix,
then you should use "handout:1" instead of "handout:0".

Best regards,
Jan

Dear Mehmet,

I am not sure what you mean by "beamer template".

Anyway, the best way to learn about Latex Beamer is to read the
Beamer User Guide, or at least a part of it. The first 140 pages or
so should suffice for a start. You can read the rest later (as I
did).

If you still have a problem after looking into the manual, you can
ask specific questions here.
