An array is to be displayed in a Beamer presentation with some elements constant across all slides in the frame. Other array elements, however, must change with the overlay in the frame and are of non-constant height and width. It would seem desirable to reserve an unchanging amount of room for each variable array entry with something akin to \overlayarea
or \overprint
within the array itself, but this has so far failed to work. The commands which do work like \temporal
end up changing the positioning of the entire array between slides.
Is there a preferred and/or elegant solution to this problem within Beamer?

Here the definition plus demonstration code of
\Temporal
. It works like\temporal
but uses boxes like the\Alt
suggested by me in Beamer alt command like visible instead of like only. In addition I added an optional argument which can be used to align the narrower alternatives to the left, middle or right ([l]
,[c]
or[r]
). This was necessary to support centered array cells.(the size differences in the images is due to different cropping)
