### Functions

### override_animate(method)

Decorator for overriding method animations.

This allows to specify a method (returning an [`Animation`](manim.animation.animation.Animation.md#manim.animation.animation.Animation))
which is called when the decorated method is used with the `.animate` syntax
for animating the application of a method.

#### SEE ALSO
[`animate`](manim.mobject.mobject.Mobject.md#manim.mobject.mobject.Mobject.animate)

#### NOTE
Overridden methods cannot be combined with normal or other overridden
methods using method chaining with the `.animate` syntax.
