| ActiveX Animation | ActiveX-Animation (An animation that utilizes ActiveX technology) |
| animation effect | Animationseffekt (A special visual or sound effect added to text or an object. For instance, a user can have the text bullet points fly in from the left, one word at a time, or hear the sounds of applause when a picture is uncovered) |
| animation interpolation | Animationsinterpolation (A kind of interpolation that animates the property values between successive key times) |
| Animation Library | Animationsbibliothek (A library that developers can use in their applications throughout the new Windows user interface) |
| animation manager | Animations-Manager (A core component of an animation application and the central programmatic interface for managing (creating, scheduling, and controlling) animations.) |
| Animation Painter | Animation übertragen (A feature that replicates the animation associated with a source object to one or more target objects) |
| animation resource | Animationsressource (An animation storyboard that is encapsulated in such a way that it can be reused elsewhere in your application) |
| animation scheme | Animationsschema (Adds preset visual effects to text on slides. Ranging from subtle to exciting, each scheme usually includes an effect for the slide title and an effect that is applied to bullets or paragraphs on a slide) |
| animation style | Animationsstil (An abstract grouping of similar animation effects) |
| animation timer | Animationstimer (A component to provide timing services used in conjunction with the animation manager. It dynamically throttles the frame rate based on application and system load or in low-power mode) |
| animation trigger | Animationstrigger (An animation option that can be set so that the animation plays when a specified item is clicked) |
| animation workspace | Animationsarbeitsbereich (A user interface area where animations are composed) |
| Custom Animation list | Liste für benutzerdefinierte Animation (The list of animation sequences for a slide. Items are listed in the order in which they are added, and include icons that indicate timing in relation to other animation events) |
| dependent animation | abhängige Animation (An animation that changes the value of a property and runs on the UI thread) |
| entry animation effect | Eingangsanimation (An animation effect that is applied to text or pictures entering a PowerPoint presentation) |
| exit animation effect | Ausgangsanimation (An animation effect that is applied to text or pictures exiting a PowerPoint presentation) |
| GIF animation | GIF-Animation (A file containing a series of graphics that are displayed in rapid sequence in a Web browser) |
| handoff animation | Übergabeanimation (A method of blending animation storyboards together so that the transition is smooth. For example, if one animation is running when interrupted by a second animation that modifies the same property, the second animation picks up at the current value of the animated property instead of jumping to a static starting point. This is achieved by not setting a keyframe at the 0-second mark of the second animation) |
| independent animation | unabhängige Animation (An animation that changes the value of a property and runs on a separate, hardware-accelerated system thread) |
| real-time animation | Echtzeitanimation (Computer animation in which images are computed and updated on the screen at the same rate at which the objects simulated might move in the real world. Real-time animation allows dynamic involvement by the user because the computer can accept and incorporate keystrokes or controller movements as it is drawing the next image in the animation sequence. Arcade-style animation (such as in a flight simulator program) makes use of real-time animation in translating game plays into on-screen actions. In contrast, in animation done in virtual time, image frames are first calculated and stored and later replayed at a higher rate to achieve smoother movement) |
| recalculation animation | Neuberechnungsanimation (An animation effect that plays when the value of a cell is recalculated. The old value slides out of the bottom as the new value slides in from the top) |
| SketchFlow Animation | SketchFlow-Animation (A feature that enables on-the-fly animations in prototypes to represent the behavior of the application when in use) |
