Pretty self-explanatory title. I'm not sure if it was an option I saw a long while back, but I was wondering if it was possible to have animations pre-loaded? Currently, I have to go through all the animations I have to get them to play properly and not have the widget immediately show up and/or animate in the second half of loading.

Just in case a visual example is needed as well

In the ATVO theme exemple, preload is used. You can look how they do.

thread to see

Edit: I just look your video, I don't sure you can do this animation without lag with ticker. It is ok in theme but when you use it with all data come from iRacing it is difficult to have swift animation. (perhapps with a very good CPU)
