Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

Create a sequence of cells to animate with a display time of one second:

Wolfram Language code: CellPrint[Table[TextCell[lett, "Text", AnimationDisplayTime -> 1], {lett, {"a", "bbb", "ccccc"}}]]

Run the animation by selecting the three cells and choosing Graphics ▶ Rendering ▶ Animate Selected Graphics.
