Error in beamer with only in lists












3














I don't understand what is and how to solve this problem. It says LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing item. [ end{frame}]



documentclass{beamer}
begin{document}
begin{frame}
begin{enumerate}
only<2->{item test1}
only<3->{item test2}
end{enumerate}
end{frame}
end{document}


When I change the 2 to 1 like this,



documentclass{beamer}
begin{document}
begin{frame}
begin{enumerate}
only<1->{item test1}
only<3->{item test2}
end{enumerate}
end{frame}
end{document}


the code works.

          The problem is that on the first overlay you would have an enumerate environment with no item, which is not allowed. You could workaround this by wrapping the whole enumerate in an environment which is only shown form the second overlay onwards, or (in my opinion much easier) use the build in overlay functionality of item:



          documentclass{beamer}
          begin{document}
          begin{frame}
          begin{enumerate}
          item<2-> test1
          item<3-> test2
          end{enumerate}
          end{frame}
          end{document}
