Description

Bug description

I have a slide where I show two steps with a pause between the two. If I add a footnote in the second step, it is displayed from the beginning whereas it should appear only in the second step.

Example:

---
format: revealjs
---

First step.

. . .

Second step^[This footnote shouldn't appear in the first step.]

RStudio 2022.07.1+554 "Spotted Wakerobin"
quarto v. 1.2.157
Windows 10 x64 (build 19044)
