Narakeet usually creates a small prosodic break at the end of each slide, similar to finishing a paragraph when reading. This is great for most situations, but it is not good if you want to split a single sentence across multiple scenes or slides, for example when revealing an answer to a question.

You can now use the narration-mode stage direction to tell Narakeet to use a smaller break, akin to pausing between words in a sentence.
