 It turned out that the method 
\family sans
PDF (dvipdfm)
\family default
 works on all LaTeX systems as expected when viewing/exporting this file
 as PDF.
 Viewing and exporting seminar documents to DVI and PS can result in an
 unwanted output, depending on your LaTeX system and the DVI or PostScript
 viewer.

 The 
\family sans
seminar
\family default
 class is designed to produce transparencies, not powerpoint-like presentations.
 For such presentations, use a presentation document class like
\family sans
 beamer
\family default
 or
\family sans
 powerdot
\family default
.

Some basic points to start with:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
Start a slide with an paragraph of type 
\family typewriter
LandscapeSlide
\family default
 or 
\family typewriter
PortraitSlide
\family default
.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
It is really helpful to read the seminar handbook: 
\family typewriter
sem-user.pdf
\family default
 (or 
\family typewriter
sem-user.dvi
\family default
)
\end_layout

\end_deeper
\begin_layout --Separator--

\end_layout

\begin_layout PortraitSlide

\end_layout

\begin_deeper
\begin_layout SlideHeading
Putting some content in a slide 
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
If a paragraph shall appear in a slide, it need to be 
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
either inside the opening 
\family sans
LandscapeSlide
\family default
 paragraph 
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
or nested inside the 
\family sans
LandscapeSlide
\family default
 environment
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
How to nest things is explained in LyX's User's Guide chapter 3.4.
\end_layout

\end_deeper
\begin_layout --Separator--

\end_layout

\begin_layout LandscapeSlide

\end_layout

\begin_deeper
\begin_layout SlideSubHeading
What can be part of a slide?
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
Virtually everything that can appear in normal LaTeX, can also be on a slide.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
(Well, floats are an exception --- who would want them on a slide.)
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
Additionally there are the paragraph styles:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize

\family sans
SlideHeading,
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize

\family sans
SlideSubheading,
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize

\family sans
ListOfSlides,
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize

\family sans
SlideContents,
\family default
 and
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize

\family sans
ProgressContents
\family default
.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
All of them can be found in the Style pull-down box.
\end_layout

\end_deeper
\begin_layout --Separator--

\end_layout

\begin_layout LandscapeSlide
Text within the 
\family sans
LandscapeSlide
\family default
 environment will go on top of the slide as a standard paragraph.
\end_layout

\begin_deeper
\begin_layout SlideHeading
What happens, when you want a List or a Heading first? 
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
Normally, LyX does not like empty paragraphs and it kills empty environments
 before you are able to nest something in them (if you don't insert an empty
 command or a note).
 
\family typewriter
seminar
\family default
.
\family typewriter
layout
\family default
 tells LyX to leave an empty 
\family sans
LandscapeSlide
\family default
 or 
\family sans
PortraitSlide
\family default
, so you don't need to use the above workaround.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
The 
\family sans
--Separator--
\family default
 paragraph after a slide is needed because LyX will normally merge two environme
nts if they come immediately one after the other (i.
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
\end_inset

g.
\begin_inset space \space{}
\end_inset

two Paragraphs in the 
\family sans
LandscapeSlide
\family default
 environment will go to one slide, if there is nothing else between.)
\end_layout

\end_deeper
\begin_layout --Separator--

\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
The seminar class puts everything that is not nested inside a 
\family sans
Slide
\family default
 environment on extra pages as 
\emph on
notes
\emph default
 (see slide 
\begin_inset CommandInset ref
LatexCommand ref
reference "sli:output-options"

\end_inset

 for output options).
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
There is no need for a 
\family sans
--Separator--
\family default
 paragraph, if notes follow the slide (or if a 
\family sans
Landscape Slide
\family default
 is followed by a 
\family sans
Portrait Slide
\family default
.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Section
Outline
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
Seminar defines additional content-listing commands, as the Table of Contents
 only lists 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

normal
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

 headings and subheadings:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
\begin_inset CommandInset toc
LatexCommand tableofcontents

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Subsection
Slide contents
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
The 
\family sans
SlideContents
\family default
 paragraph style is an analogue to the table of contents but lists only
 
\family sans
SlideHeading
\family default
s.
 It has problems with 
\family sans
SlideSubheading
\family default
s, though which fail to show up in the list (seems to be a bug in 
\family typewriter
slidesec.sty
\family default
):
\end_layout

\begin_layout SlideContents

\end_layout

\begin_layout Subsection
List of slides
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
Analogue to a list of tables, the 
\family sans
ListOfSlides
\family default
 style lists all slides in your document (to produce a slide with the list,
 nest it in a 
\family sans
...Slide
\family default
 paragraph):
\end_layout

\begin_layout ListOfSlides

\begin_layout Subsection
Progress Contents
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
If you want to assure the audience, that the presentation is almost over,
 insert a slide with
