I suppose that it's just me, but I'm having a terrible time with the Beamer
class in LyX-1.3.5. In addition to the -deeper issue, I cannot indent
itemized items under another itemized item and the \block command does not produce the expected output (the first letter after the name, "block," is the
title and everything else is listed below that.)

Have others successfully used these features within the LyX environment?
I'm not sufficiently productive trying to write this presentation.

Rich -

I've used the sample beamerpresentation.lyx file that comes with beamer as a model, and I believe it will answer most of your questions. (If you don't have it for some reason, I can send it to you privately.)

For example, from that file it's clear that \block requires using ERT to put the block title in curly braces: {Title}.

Itemized items can be nested using standard LyX command (Increase/Decrease Environment Depth). Your trouble may be that you have a pause in between; the pause "paragraph" must be indented in order for subsequent items to be indented as well. (Again, that this is the case becomes evident from studying the beamerpresentation.lyx file -- but it does take some detective work.)

I hope that helps.

Bennett
