I have been writing a couple of presentations in Beamer. Because I am so used to working in LaTeX now, it’s very frustrating to have to switch back to a Microsoft product such as Microsoft Powerpoint.

Slowly, I’m learning tricks to make my Beamer presentations more dynamic by revealing or hiding bullets or parts of a figure.

I wish I had found this post, How To Make a Presentation with Beamer, sooner. It would have saved me a lot of time!

The most useful tip for me was the \onslide command.

\onslide<4->{ content }  This will reveal the content from slide 4 onwards.

\onslide<2-4>{ content }  This will reveal the content only on slides 2 to 4.
