Try the following:1. In the LyX file, use Insert > Custom Inset > Beamer Note to insert speaker notes. 2. For each speaker note, put the cursor inside the note, right-click and select Action Specifications, which nests another inset inside the note. In the nested inset, give the Beamer specification for which slide(s) the note applies to. For instance, <2> means the note only applies to the second slide of the frame. Note that you have to type the angle brackets; LyX does not supply them. 3. You now have three options for generating a PDF file. 1. To get a PDF file that contains both slides and notes, add the line "\setbeameroption{show notes}" to the LaTeX preamble. The notes will appear on separate pages embedded in the PDF file. 2. To get a PDF file that contains just the notes, change that to "\setbeameroption{show only notes}". 3. To get a PDF file that contains only the slides (no notes), do neither of the above. The default is to hide notes.Pro tip: if you put both the \setbeameroption lines in the preamble, you can switch among the three options just by commenting one or both out.
Paul, Thanks. I read about the actions in either the LyX beamer manual or the KOMA-Script beamer user guide but was not sure just how to use them. Best regards, Rich
