Problem

Animation pauses when a filtering attribute is added.

Screenshots

Screenshot 1: "posterior" was added during the animation and it did not move forward.

Screenshot 2: "country.states" was added at the beginning of the animation and it did not start.

I could not immediately reproduce, can you check @jpmonettas pls?

@KanikaNahata @fbielejec The whole thing of removing/adding objects while the animation is running is tricky and to be honest I didn't designed for it. I don't see it being super helpful but I can see someone trying that and being confused about it, maybe we can disable some of the tools while the animation is running?

Closing, goes against initial design, too deep of changes required
