Skipping automatically to the next slide when the first one is full without
having to start a frame evrytime


I'm not sure what exactly you mean, but you should know that beamer
always expects the user to specify the beginning of a new frame.
Furthermore, LyX cannot know before-hand when a slide is full, as it
would first need to compile the entire document. However, even in this
case LyX doesn't (and possibly will never) feature the automatic
mechanisms that would allow it to spot that a slide is full, and
relies on your eyes to do that.

Sorry but this is actually misleading a bit. You can have frame breaks 
in beamer. In that use case frames are filled just like the pages in a 
regular article. Coming from the powerpoint world you would never want 
to do that, but from a latex world this is what you expect from latex in 
general: you expect that it does the layout for you.


Solution: Put "[allowframebreaks]" in TeX code as the very first thing 
in your Frame heading in LyX. I use this for bibliography slide(s).

It might help to know what you mean by 'slides' and by 'frames'. For
beamer a 'frame' and 'overlay' is what for PowerPoint is a 'slide' and
'animation', respectively. (But I may be wrong.)

Again, I'm not sure what you're looking for. You may want to check the
beamer example in File > New from template, which is a pretty complete
example of what beamer can do.

  Hey again,
  

  
  if i wanted to insert two equations on the same line not
using inline equations since i want it to be centered taking the
shape of a display equation can anyone help me with that



  

One way to do this would be to use an array
(Insert>Math>Array), make it 1x3, and put the equations in the
outer cells and nothing but some space in the middle.
