There's no line here to end. \end{frame}

Question

when i compile my beamer , it says that There's no line here to end. \end{frame} what does that mean? But the strange is when i delete the \\~ after every \item , it works right. But i want to start every item in every other line. who can explain the reason of error? And are there any other ways to start every item in every other line? thanks

Answer 1

You can modify the \itemsep length within the itemize environment but you better listen David Carlisle's advice. \\ is almost always does the wrong thing while you might have the innocent skip a line please. In a list, there is no next line but spacing between items. You can choose what that space should look like for your own taste but be aware that this is a habit introduced by Powerpoint.

\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}    
\begin{frame}
\begin{itemize}\itemsep=3ex
    \item One item
    \item Two items
    \item Three items
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
