AI am probably missing something very basic, but I cannot use columns in
beamer (unless I use copy/paste from the examples).
I did try the following, but it didn't work:
===============
[BeginFrame]Some title[ ->screen-> Frame: Some title
[columns] -> columns
[column] 5cm ->rt column: 5 cm
[standard]text to the left ->text to the left
[column] 5 cm ->rt column: 5 cm
[standard]text to the right ->text to the right
[EndFrame] -> _____________
========
Terms between [] are not typed but selected from the drop-down menu
(note that for some reason the first two letters of "start column" don't
appear on the left of the screen!).
Looking at the code in beamerxemple.lyx, I see that the "column"
statements there are inserted between /begin_deeper /end_deeper
statements, but I don't see them in my code listing: what are they and
how do insert them from the lyx interface?
What I am missing here?
Using Lyx 1.4.3 with texlive2005 on xp

After inserting the columns environment, you need to nest each column
environment under it. With the cursor in the column (not columns) line,
you can use Edit->Increase List Depth, the tool button that has a list
with a blue left-to-right arrow, or M-S-right arrow.
