Simple Animations

Touying provides two markers for simple animation effects: #pause and #meanwhile.

pause

The purpose of #pause is straightforward – it separates the subsequent content into the next subslide. You can use multiple #pause to create multiple subslides. Here's a simple example:

#slide[
  First #pause Second

  #pause

  Third
]

image

This example will create three subslides, gradually revealing the content.

As you can see, #pause can be used inline or on a separate line.

meanwhile

In some cases, you may need to display additional content simultaneously with #pause. In such cases, you can use #meanwhile.

#slide[
  First
  
  #pause
  
  Second

  #meanwhile

  Third

  #pause

  Fourth
]

image

This example will create only two subslides, with "First" and "Third" displayed simultaneously, and "Second" and "Fourth" displayed simultaneously.
