Two "skip" cell bugs about rise HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm running into issues with trying to "skip" cells in slideshows with live_reveal. First, if you try to skip the very first fragment (e.g. if it contains import statements, etc.), the cell is not skipped, and the state of the cell is switched to "slide" from "skip" automatically.

This is a design decision because a lot of people could forget to setup the first cell to show as an slide... but you are right about some uses cases where is good to hide the first (or more) cells... I think I have to re-evaluate this decision or come up with a better solution...

Second, and perhaps more serious, if you skip any other cell in the workbook and play the slideshow, the cell gets deleted and does not ever re-appear.

This is really serious, I will investigate why is not working...

BTW, thanks for the screen cast, it is super useful!!

Is there a workaround for this so that we can skip slides with the current version without losing work?

You are not losing it 😉 in fact, the cell are there but with display:none css... I will submit the fix in 5 minutes.
