Re: [Prosper-users] Overlay with nested itemize produce compile error

[Trond V. <tr...@va...>]

It is a rather off behaviour. Especially since the following does work
without compile errors:
\overlays{3}{%
\begin{slide}{Bug}
\fromSlide{1}{
\begin{itemize}
\item TTP
    \begin{itemize}
    \item primo
}
\fromSlide{2}{
    \item secondo
}
\fromSlide{1}{
    \end{itemize}
}
\fromSlide*{2}{
\item Bob
    \begin{itemize}
    \item secundo
}
\fromSlide{3}{
    \item tertio
}
\fromSlide*{2}{
    \end{itemize}
}
\fromSlide{1}{
\end{itemize}
}
\end{slide}}

Note the stared version of \fromSlide for the second itemize
environment...
