Notice that in your file the overlays are actually outside the overlayarea. You can see it clearly if you export to LaTeX. I you then include the onlyenvs inside the overlayarea (see attached), then the result conforms what I was expecting. The difference between the two cases is that in the first case, the baseline of the permanent text is moved upwards as more lines are added to the frame, whereas in the second case (all onlyenvs inside the overlayarea) the baseline is fixed. This is what I wanted. Thanks for the tip. I did not try with overlayarea because I was not sure about the overlay height. But it seems that setting a total height of 0cm does the trick. -- Rudi Gaelzer Departamento de Física Instituto de Física Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Porto Alegre - RS BRAZIL Phone: +55-51-3308-6472 FAX: +55-51-3308-7286 Registered Linux user # 153741
