Handout mode

If you distribute your slides after your talk for further reference, you might not want to keep in all the dynamic content. Imagine using item-by-item on a long list and readers having to scroll through endless pages when they just want to see the full list.

You can use #enable-handout-mode(true) at the top of your code to achieve this:

It has the effect that all dynamic visibility of elements that reserve space is switched off. For example,

#enable-handout-mode(true)
// ...
#slide[
  Some text.
  #uncover("3-")[You cannot always see this.]
  Or can you?
  #show: later

  And what about this?
]

becomes:

Note that only and alternatives are not affected as there is no obvious way to unify their content to one slide.
