Transition

Fade time can be configurable separately for these 3 cases.

  • Fade-in; Received a non-empty text when text was empty.
  • Fade-out; Received an empty text when text was not empty.
  • Cross-fade; Receiving a non-empty text when text was not empty.

Slide feature is currently experimental.

  • When the text is updated, the old text will move up to disappear and the new text will rise from the bottom.
