My opinion is that the hard work under the hood has been done (I know Jürgen did a lot to improve consistency and features for beamer). I think we just need to smooth out the user experience a bit. In any case, I don't see this happening until after LyX 2.4.0 but I'm confident we can improve things in the long run.

Re: LabelCounter with Beamer frame?
I would just use it all the time, as hany reference information. And for example, if I am reviewing the entire compiled pdf slide deck, and see some slides that I want to move to a different order, I could find it easily in the LYX file. By the way, I almost replied to the long thread END OF FRAME once .. , started by Ehud Kaplan, if only to say that I had shared much of the frustration in getting started, and remembering what to do upon returning to LYX Beamer after not using it for a while. Back in the trench again with it, I think a good user guide would go a long way to helping many people.

Le 11/11/2021 à 13:23, Jean-Marc Lasgouttes a Editing policy.html was the trick. Thanks to all of you who helped. Do you have rsvg-convert installed? Is it used in this situation? I installed librsvg2-bin, reconfigured lyx-2.3.7dev, removed files from the cache and again, compilation of the UserGuide went flawlessly with calls to rsvg. The rsvg path is actually easier on Debian that editing the ImageMagick policy file.

I had to set 'InitialValue' to 2 since the title takes up a frame for me. It's really nice to have the numbers. I find it especially helpful when I print out a copy and make edits and then want to input those hardcopy edits to the file. Navigating by slide numbers is a bit faster than searching for titles or (for frames without a title) content text.

I think that might be nice. Indeed we'd have to smooth a few things out. If anyone is interested in working on this feature, maybe we could first ask on lyx-users what opinions are.
