Both of which I used in my example file. Daniel

Daniel, I'm not finding how to print the slides and notes on two-column pages when I look at the preamble and settings in your .lyx example. I get only the beamer presentation (without notes using \setbeameroption{hide notes} and with notes following each slide using \setbeameroption{show notes}). Please point out what I've missed so I can produce a document with the slides on the left and the notes on the right, as your .pdf attachment shows. Regards, Rich I see. Well, I just opened the document in a PDF viewer and printed it 3 rows by 2 columns to a pdf file. Daniel
crash when spell checking
Hello, I do not understand why lyx crashes when I run the spell checker. Then it crashes every time that I try to reload it!!! It is a BEARMER document. Unfortunately, it is not a document that I can broadcast, and I am in rush. fedora 28, === Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdu...@gmx.com Laboratoire de Physico-Chimie de l'Atmosphère | | Université du Littoral-Côte d'Opale | | Tel.

Paul, It seems I need to do this for each note, That's okay. 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. With pauses between the points on a slide the note is after the first point. Without pauses the note is after the slide. I'll go look at the manuals and see if there's a way to present the slide and its note in two columns. Thanks, Rich Just to be sure: you saw my comment as well, right? :) Daniel
