beamer block example question
I wanted to add a Question: blah blah Answer: some stuff To my beamer presentation. I decided to try block example. I found that I couldn't insert a 2nd block example right after the first, lyx kept trying to merge them. Finally I threw in a 'seperator', and that seems to have fixed it. Is this the 'correct' approach?

Is this the 'correct' approach? Yes. A good way to do this is to put a standard environment between the two blocks and put an empty ERT inset in the standard environment. That does the job without causing any spurious vertical space to be used. Incidentally, this is not specific to beamer; it's necessary in LyX pretty much whenever you want to have two consecutive but distinct instances of the same environment (e.g., back-to-back Theorems). /Paul
