Description
Would it be possible to support "pauses" in revealjs presentations in slides that have multiple columns? I would like to show first one column, and after a click, the other.
E.g. the following does not work:
---
format:
revealjs:
center: true
---
## The ASIA network {.smaller}
:::: {.columns}
::: {.column width="60%"}
| **Random variable** | **Meaning** |
| :---: | :--- |
| ``A`` | Recent trip to Asia |
| ``T`` | Patient has tuberculosis |
| ``S`` | Patient is a smoker |
| ``L`` | Patient has lung cancer |
| ``B`` | Patient has bronchitis |
| ``E`` | Patient has ``T`` and/or ``L`` |
| ``X`` | Chest X-Ray is positive |
| ``D`` | Patient has dyspnoea |

::: {.column width="40%"}

Research direction
Start by reproducing the supplied Markdown example as a revealjs presentation and verify how the pause markers behave inside the two-column layout. Trace the revealjs column and pause handling to identify the boundary, then confirm that the first column appears before a click and the second appears afterward.
