Drop a time element onto play axis (property) and scatter bubble charts animate, MAPS animate, bar charts, anything that can logically show visualization state over time can be animated.

Tableau does this partially. This is the future.

RE: Animation for ALL!

We use PowerBI to create dashboards that visual the deployment in detailed usage telemetry for our medical applications. We would like to be able visualise how deployment and usage changes over different timespans. Take a look at Hans Rosling on Ted: https://www.ted.com/talks/hans_rosling_reveals_new_insights_on_poverty

How about adding a Play, and Step button to the Date slicer. Pressing Play would automatically increment the current date on the between range. The Step functionally would manually increment the current date when it was pressed. Increment for Play and Step can set in the properties pane.

RE: Animation for ALL!

If we have the same thing in mind, I want animation over time like Hans Rosling shows on most of his TED talks for all chart types.
